You've Got To Have Balls To Play With This Harley!
















There's no better past time than owning and riding a Harley. Once you're addicted you'll find that it's all the after the main purchase, (the bike) that cost you a small fortune. Today I visited my friends John and Mike Rafer of Rafer Billiards in Selbyville, DE. "Just In" is the new Harley Davidson Pool Table for a mere $5,500.00. It even includes the trademark black cloth and orange bumpers. Mention my name, you'll get a great deal!

Alessi Does It Again!














Contender Ron Alessi will stop at nothing to break all the rules, including breaking the law. It's my understanding you must file for a permit for any sign on a commercial piece of property. I wonder if the City is keeping tabs on how tall the weeds are getting on one of the biggest street corners in all of Salisbury as well? Nevertheless, is this the kind of representative the County is looking for? One that will blatantly break the law because he simply thinks he can get away with it! Keep it up Ron, this is exactly what we want you to do!!!!!!

WWTP Update

I just spoke with Dave Pushkar who heads the MDE here on the Eastern Shore. Dave has informed me that they are willing to work with the City of Salisbury on the "sludge pit" and have been willing to do so from the beginning "IF" the City is willing to put in several monitoring wells.

The City has refused to cooperate with such said wells which hightens the curiosity within the MDE that there is in fact some stalling going on and they do expect to find contamination even after the sludge pit is removed. The fact that the City has not come back with an agreement to put in these wells clearly tells the ultimate story.

One way or the other the City is in deep poop on this matter because we all know what is expected in the end. Barrie Tilghman, John Jacobs and Dave Winslow can stall all they want on this matter, there's something seriously wrong at the WWTP and the Taxpayers are ultimately going to pay the price in the end.

My thoughts on the matter are, wait till elections are over with Dunn and the rest of the crew before they move forward with truly complying with the MDE as they do NOT want this to be an issue.

Which brings me to this? I believe the County Executive Candidates should all be digging deep into this issue and demanding the Mayor answer with facts and truth so these Candidates can tackle this issue as one of the major topics in their campaign. What are they going to do about it? What are they going to do to assure this is not a major catastrophe down the road in other parts of the County?

On another note still referencing the MDE. The Salisbury Zoo has corrected the illegal pipes that were draining raw sewage into the river as well as a very important valve that will forever stop raw sewage from backing up into the Bison Exhibit again. Because they cooperated, there will be no fines from the MDE. Their main goal was to correct the problem there, NOT to take money from the Taxpayers.

A little message to Barrie Tilghman, cooperate with the MDE like the Zoo did and maybe you won't force the MDE to fine you out the ying yang? Your games with the WWTP & the MDE have cost the Taxpayers $25,000.00 so far and you can't win all your battles Barrie. I think we all know what's underneath that sludge pit liner and I don't think we're going to let this one slip away until it's completely resolved. The Daily Times can't cover it up any more and there are more readers on the Blog Sites than there are with that newspaper anyway.
