Hunter Nelms Was A "No Show" (AWOL) At The Swearing In Of Mike Leiws
There was one individual I was looking high and low for at the swearing in ceremony for Mike Lewis and that was former Sheriff Hunter Nelms. I was sure the man would be there and I was completely wrong.At one point I asked Mike Lewis, where the heck is Hunter Nelms? Mike replied, "Joe, I personally invited Hunter and I have no idea what happened to him." That being said, (IMO) his absence was very disrespectful.
I can't recall perfectly but I believe the Master of Ceremony Davis Ruark mentioned Hunter Nelms name and there was a standing ovation. After 20+ years of leading the Sheriffs Department you'd think he would have been there for his Officers and welcome the new Sheriff with open arms. After all, he's the one that retired and he wasn't voted out.
As I wish Hunter the very best life can offer and I'm grateful for all he has given, I'm disappointed in his final decision.

500 Voters Have Spoken
It looks like The Daily Times is getting a run for their money. After weeks of voting, other news sources have clearly come out on top.
I have been following The Daily Times on line version of the Blogs and that too has fallen falt on its face.
My thinking is, unless they start telling "full stories" and stop being so afraid of Barrie Tilghman, things are going to continue to go down hill for them. Perhaps they could create a similar poll in their news print to see if these figures would change any?
Nevertheless, Barrie Tilghman & Chief Webster might want to reconsider who they want to call "Media" in this area.

Chief Jack & Coke Learns He's A Public Official
.jpg)
Although Chief Jack & Coke tried to use his right hand to block the view of this 47 News Camera Man, they have every right to do so and there's not a darned thing that can be done about it. At one point I'd say he was within 15" of his face.Mike Dunn and the rest of the City Council better get used to it as they are preparing to put together their campaign to keep their seats on the Council. Bashing Debbie Campbell is not the answer but let them keep at it. The Blogs will slam them every time they lie and the readership continues to rise, so the message will get out there. The funniest part is, Debbie's seat isn't up for grabs. Secondly, they've already admitted she's a single voice on the Council, meaning everything that's being passed is being done so by their votes, not Debbie's.
Mike, we're going to get to the bottom of your financial situation with Sassafras and the Bank of Delmarva Stock. It's not over yet. In closing, what do you think would have happened to ME if I had gotten this close and took pictures of the Chief? Hmmmmmmmm?
A Frustrated Visitor From England

A frustrated visitor from England was not only found driving on the wrong side of the road, they were furious that the City of Salisbury placed signs up that also face the wrong direction.I wonder what the Mexicans do?
