The Salisbury Dive Team

The letters on this vehicle should say, "I don't give a shit how much they pay us, we're not going into that river!"

While Ron Alessi stated we don't give back to the community and also mentioned a disgruntled employee, Jennifer Albero served on the Salisbury Dive Team for 5 years, where you you Ron? Is that not good enough for you Ron? Or do you have to be paid for a job you should be volunteering for to qualify? Jennifer served for free.

Hi, I'm RINO Alessi

If Jim Rapp can piss on windshields with female coworkers inside, I can come crash the Democratic Booth!

Come On Ron, Give Me My Hand Back!

Ron was really working the crowd yesterday practicing on anyone that would listen. Is there a requirement to have your eyes and ears checked before you start running for office?

Ren Takes New York!

As I know Iyeska will freak out, Ren took 1st Place in New York and got yet another point in his third Show ever.

This time we had our Handler Cassandra Williams take Ren to New York and she's coming home with a winner!

This guy is gonna finish very quickly! Congratulations Cassandra, great job!

17 Days Later!!!!!!

Back on August 24th I ran a story called, "Coming To Every School Near You." Once again the Daily Times has complimented me by posting yet ANOTHER front page story I broke 17 days earlier. Better late then never, right?

Anyhow Greg Bassett, I'm available on Moday mornings around 11:00. This is my free advise hour each week and you're welcome to call. Maybe I can show you how to get these stories a couple of weeks earlier so you don't look so bad?

Did I mention our publication is free?

Larry Dodd Works Dott Truitt

Although the stench from the river in the background was almost overwhelming, Larry worked the crowd yesterday in an awkward environment.

It's A Shame You Can't Vote For Both Of These Fine Gentlemen!

Hunter Nelms and Bob Culver, no matter how things go this week, no one can deny that these two gentlemen could have and would have made an incredible team! I'm just the lucky guy with the camera who can proudly say I know both these fine men.

They Did It Again!

Tell me Barrie, how long will Salisbury put up with this? This was today, so you know.

Another Sign That It's Over!

Remember the signs that were posted, (3 in a row) on this property not so long ago? They're gone, removed, thrown out, destroyed. Alessi lost all of his credibility and the first sign is what is left. Citizens are through with this man's BS and they have given up.

By the way, isn't disgruntled someone who sues the City because they didn't get a contract based on conflicts of interest? Say Godnight Gracy!

WHAT, I didn't Do Nuttin!

Allow me to explain why this man is so full of shit!

Yesterday while we were talking one on one I had the privilege of being backed up by Hunter Nelms and Major Doris Schonbrunner, just in case Ron wanted to create stories similar to Jim Rapp claiming I assaulted him.

Believe it or not Folks, I actually purposely "bumped" Ron Alessi with my camera on purpose. I said, sorry Ron. He replied, for what? I said, I just bumped you with my camera, sorry about that. He replied, I never even noticed Joe. I said, that's funny Ron, because that's how hard Jim Rapp bumped into my camera and I thought it was no big deal wither and he called the Police on me for assault and the funny thing is, he's the one that bumped me. However, it is kind of funny how it didn't seem to effect you in any way at all. WHAT'S THAT TELL YOU FOLKS?

During this conversation Ron very politely asked how Jennifer was doing and how was her back? I explained to Ron that Jennifer and I were doing very well and as a matter of fact, last Friday we received custody of our 5 year old Grandson. Ron seemed to be very excited and congratulated me several times in our conversation. This is the same SOB that purposely refused our GRANDPARENTS FRIENDS MEMBERSHIP at the Salisbury Zoo. He refused to allow this child to participate and then he wants to ACT like he's excited for us?

Ron Alessi was the man that also had Jennifer fired! Jennifer herniated three disks in her back on the job and rather than helping an 18 year employee of the City, they fired her. Now let's look at today Letter to the Idioter from Ron Alessi. Ron claimed that Jennifer was a disgruntled employee who's lawsuit never made it to trial. I want to explain the facts a little better to all of you so everyone completely understands the facts here.

Jim Rapp admitted he dropped his pants and pissed on a windshield of a vehicle with female employees in the vehicle and claimed he did so to defrost the windshield. My guess is that Ron Alessi gets off on such a thing as this does not offend him in any way. Maybe if "I" pissed on his wife's windshield and exposed myself several times they'd actually enjoy such a thing? Jim Rapp's response was, "I thought it was a good idea at the time."

The case was dropped Ron Alessi because Jennifer received the highest award ever given out by Workers Compensation for such injuries because the Judge stated there was no doubt the Mayor and Jim Rapp were retaliating against Jennifer Albero as she had been doing everything possible to get a job over the past two years, completely cooperating with their programs and she never once got a job offer. He was persuaded they had everything to do with that and he gave Workers Compensation 30 days to get her a job or he'd give that reward. 20+ days into it someone from Workers Compensation tried to have the case number changed in order to get this Judge off the case and he caught them. The following day Jennifer had been given an offer by Workers Compensation she couldn't refuse!

Now, what's important here Folks is this. IF Jennifer had taken her case against the City any further, IF Jennifer would have won her case, she would have had to pay back Workers Compensation all the money she had been awarded for pain and suffering as well as loss of time on the job. There was absolutely no reason to take her case any further unless she did so out of spite and or she was in fact disgruntled. She dropped an easy appeal case and moved on with her life, it's that simple. Ron Alessi knows this as a fact and he's still living as if nothing ever happened.

Here's what I'm going to ask of each and every one of you reading this Blog Site. Please think about these facts. Jennifer worked for the Salisbury Zoo for 18 years. She wasn't a trouble maker and was in FACT rated as the very best Employee the Salisbury Zoo had in depositions by each and every one of her coworkers. Jim Rapp admitted to the charges Jennifer placed against him and arrogantly walked around like he simply didn't care. Jennifer exposed unbelievable amounts of animal deaths at the Zoo that were completely unacceptable and Ron Alessi and the Mayor covered it up. There were so many illegal activities going on at the Zoo, including employees abusing drugs, (yes, even on the job) and NOTHING has been done about it.

So if you fools want to believe Jennifer was a disgruntled employee of the City look at her life now, after the fact. Does it look like she's suffering? For those of you who have had the honor of meeting Jennifer, is she the type of person that would ever come off as a liar? It's so funny we have all this proof and Ron Alessi acts like nothing ever happened.

Ron Alessi sent back our Grandparent Membership as well as the money and said we weren't friends of the Salisbury Zoo. Ron Alessi sent back our money for sponsoring 4 animals for a year because we're not friends of the Salisbury Zoo. In my opinion Folks, Ron Alessi, Jim Rapp and Barrie Tilghman are NOT friends of the Salisbury Zoo.

In closing, Ron Alessi claimed that one of the Bloggers used his wife and family in an attack against him. Yesterday Ron told me one of the Bloggers used his Daughters name Elizabeth in an attack against him. I have spoken with Hadley who denies it and I know for a fact I never did so. That leaves Bill Duvall but I doubt he did so as well and this would mean Ron Alessi is full of crap and playing the old, poor, poor, pitiful me card. I hope the BLOG SITES are exactly what does in fact bring you down Ron Alessi! You're completely full of crap!

More to come...........

Fire is 1 letter short of relief.

Fired would be one of the best words I could be rewarded with but that's just not the case as of yet.

However, after a lengthy conversation one on one yesterday with Ron Alessi, he assured me that he is NOT happy with Jim Rapp at all right now.

The fact that Jim Rapp kept the mauled ducks from Ron Alessi sent Ron over the top where he said, believe me Joe, I had someone's ass over that issue.

He wasn't very pleased and Ron agreed with me that protocol calls for traps to immediately go out after the first duck was mauled and that didn't happen. It took 5 mauled ducks and a Zoo Commission Meeting for something positive to happen and Ron Alessi even said, we got him the first night we put out the traps. I agreed but replied, yeah, imagine if it would have been done the first night though and not 10 days later after 5 ducks were killed?

Confirmation, Ron Alessi did in fact confirm that Jim Rapp did something very stupid. Ron Confirmed that Jim Rapp did in fact burn himself. I asked how he did it and Ron said he was burning sticks and brush when he decided to take a gas can and pour gas onto the fire while it was burning! YEAH, this is the guy you want to leave your children with at the Zoo!

I then asked Ron, did he do this at home? No, I can confirm that he did not do so at home, use your imagination Joe. This tell me the Dee Dee Deee did it at the Zoo! Are you listening Barrie? This seems to be a regular thing at the Zoo. Another former Director of the Zoo decided he was going to burn out some underground bees so he also poured gasoline onto the ground and also his shoe and light the fire, setting his foot on fire as well.

Ron, maybe you should make Jim take Boy Scout Classes to learn right from wrong when it comes to fires and a million other things the Boy Scouts could have helped him with in life? Needless to say after my conversation yesterday with Ron Alessi, Jim Rapp is walking a very fine line. He did burn his arm and his face from the fire, that's a shame.
