The War That Almost Happened
You listen to me young man! You better respect my authority or I'll........
I, Uh, Ahem, is that who I think it is?
Oh, Hi Joe, we didn't know you were standing there.
Folks, I was going through the pictures I took today and these were three shots in a row that I just couldn't resist playing with. These two guys have the utmost respect towards one and other and photography can sometimes create a story that just never happened. This was all in fun.

Salisbury Welcomes Gangs
If you've been anywhere near the Old Salisbury Mall lately this is what you get a taste of.
The Chief of Police certainly is not and obviously cannot handle the crime in the City of Salisbury.
It's time for some new leadership and face facts. How much longer do the residents near the Old Mall have to put up with this mess?
I know I'm sick and tired of taking pictures of it and it's spreading throughout the City like wildfire. I came to learn today that there is a group assigned to make sure that all graffiti is removed within a 24 hour period and the most obvious spot has been ignored for quite some time.
Oh well, it's your City Folks. Do something about it or enjoy the art work.
Let's Talk About Gangs & Crime In Wicomico County
Ladies & Gentlemen, not only is this graffiti Gang related, it's calling one Gang out for war. This is located on the bridge that crosses over the Wicomico River near the Ramada Inn on Rt. 13. How the Mayor and Public Works haven't been made aware of this is beyond me, (I'm confident they are 100% aware of it) but they chose NOT to clean it up and Chief Webster has no clue who to go after for such a crime.
While we're on the word crime, get this! According to the Maryland Uniform Crime Report recently published, 66% of all crimes in Worcester County closed with convictions.
ARE YOU READY?
In Wicomico County, they were only able to close 22% of all their arrests into convictions! Now what does that tell you about the Police Departments in Wicomico County? Don't even think of trying to pass the buck onto the States Attorney's Office because that's simply not the problem here. The problem here is very young and inexperienced Officers not doing their jobs properly and this is why there is a desperate need for a strong change in Wicomico County.
These are very serious numbers Folks and numbers that cannot be taken lightly. This tells me you can make a better living as a criminal in Wicomico County than an honest taxpaying Citizen! Get this, there's no taxes on stolen good too! The example is, come to Wicomico County and do your crime because there's a very strong chance you'll not get caught and or prosecuted!
James Gillespie Is One Interesting And Talented Man!
Did you know that James is one of those kids who could sit at a piano and start playing tunes without ever having lessons or ever reading music? James didn't start learning to read music until his Senior year of High School and was actually writing his own pieces of music that year.
Well, last night was a treat like none other. James took to the piano like it was an extension of his fingers. He played to a crowd for more than an hour in which we were spoiled rotten and thoroughly entertained. You didn't dare speak a word the whole time because we found ourselves so glued to his talent.
This guy is very special Folks! He is a devoted Christian who could serve the County for many years to come with some fantastic ideas. As a matter of fact, some of the ideas he's been suggesting are now being put into place by the current Clerk because James ideas are the right way of doing things and it's about time.
I have read how much people like the gentleman who's currently in this position but it's time to open your minds to progress. They have fallen way behind these past 18 years and James has the vision and willpower to make the right moves and make things more efficient. Please consider a vote for this young man and by all means please try to simply meet him one time. Once you do I can honestly tell you that you'll be sold on him from that moment forward.
