Around The Blogosphere

Delmarva Dealings is back on line and has a VERY interesting article on yesterday's Daily Slime article about Mike Dunn.

A Letter To The Editor From Candidate Terry Cohen

January 29, 2007

To the Editor of the Times:

The overall goal of my candidacy for the Salisbury City Council is to put the citizens first in everything we do. I will use my public policy, business, and community experience and skills toward building our future by focusing on the citizens and resources we have now.

Based on citizen input, I will work to:

Reduce our serious crime rate and neighborhood deterioration, ensuring our police, fire and EMS personnel are competitively paid;

Better manage our growth and tax dollars to improve our infrastructure, environment and quality of life, which will attract good businesses and jobs;

Develop safe, affordable housing solutions for our diverse citizenry; and

Create an open, responsive and respectful government that is welcoming to its citizens.


Over the years, as a gubernatorial appointee on the Maryland Commission for Women, in leadership capacities for the Business & Professional Women (BPW), and through achievement at work and as a volunteer, I have earned a very positive reputation in our community.

When I first spoke before this city council in June 2005, I asked that they put election differences and personal issues behind them and stay focused on policy. I have expressed dissenting views in a civil manner and limited comments to policy and behaviors in elected capacity.

Mike Dunn’s baseless accusation Sunday that I am a “notorious blogger” is yet another example of his inappropriate behavior pattern. As an involved citizen and now a candidate, I receive coverage in, consume news from, and communicate with this newspaper, the TV and radio stations, and the blogs.

For the sake of our city and our citizens, I ask everyone – all media included – to remain focused on issues and qualifications this election season. It is time for positive change, and I ask voters to help me achieve it.


Terry E. Cohen
Candidate, District 2
Salisbury City Council
536 Druid Hill Ave.
Salisbury, MD 21801
410.845.0296

Authority: Citizens for Terry Cohen - Owen Schweers, Treasurer

RED NET ALERT!!!!

Three new people have thrown their hat into the ring for City Council. John Atkins, Neil Bayne & Keith Wright. That brings us to 9 people and there's always tomorrow too.

On a personal note, the ONLY people I have seen in the past three years at City Council Meetings is Terry Cohen and Tim Spies. Isn't it interesting how out of nowhere all these other people have decided they are qualified to run for City Council?

This is going to get very interesting and I truly cannot wait to meet these people and hear what they have to say. Who knows, maybe they are qualified?

John Atkins, Lions Club member, b. 1942, Republican, 225 Canal Park Dr. Unit 12

Keith Wright, 810 E. Church St., b. 1959, Democrat

Neil Bayne, 707 College Lane, b. 1936, Democrat, former primary candidate County Council (lost to Dave MacLeod who went on to win general election)

It's A Sad Day For Horses

I found out that one of the police horses, Mac, had to be put down due to neurological problems. He wasn't getting up and was having trouble standing. A Veterinarian said sometimes they just don't retire well and it happened to his horse soon after he had to retire him.

Thanks Barrie Tilghman, Mike Dunn, Gary Comegys, Pam Oland and Chief Webster!!!!!!

What goes around, comes around. Looks like the Citizens are about to start retiring each one of you and you'll have no choice, just like those beautiful horses.

Kentucky Derby Winner Barbaro was euthanized today as well. Read that story here.

Have We Lost Respect?

The Downtown Salisbury Post Office had the American Flag high on top of its poll overnight without any illuminations whatsoever. Perhaps things have changed but I always understood that you do not fly the American Flag at night unless it is illuminated. Am I wrong?

Just In Case You Missed It

How many days before the hearing do they have to advertise something like this? Just curious.

Jimmy's Grille Gets A New Dumpster

By that evening the dumpster was full and dripping onto the ground for the City's Rats to snag a quick meal. I don't know why this Idiot doesn't realize people are seeing how big a slob they are and clearly the Health Department in Salisbury is non existent. Oh well, I'll never eat there, that's for sure.

Does The City Of Salisbury Need A Skate Park?








Although Barrie Tilghman throws around her weight at the Police Department trying to insist her demands be met, being the 20th most dangerous City in America, the Police just might think there are more important things to do that run off kids like this trying to have a good time. After all, (unlike Barrie Tilghman who sent her kids off to Boarding School rather than raising them) we were all kids once.

John Jacobs Calls This A "Shit Granade"

There will be a major event with the MDE this morning as they are once again back at the WWTP investigating yet another mishap. 9 days ago a front end loader hit another storage feces lagoon, (located in the big black rectangular area the arrow is pointed to) and caused damage.

Once again, this is information you haven’t heard from the Daily Slime, the Mayor or John Jacobs. I was personally unaware of this 1,000,000 gallon holding area, (another sludge pit) and I would have to believe the MDE was aware of it? Then I heard there is yet another major situation going on down there with the Electricians. It seems that there is NOT a single licensed Electrician on the site out of 25 Electricians currently doing work.

It’s no wonder Mike Dunn QUIT his job as President of the City Council. Bloggers like me keep spreading hateful and hurtful information that ONLY effects people like Barrie Tilghman and Mike Dunn, yet the readers could be saved from millions of dollars in fines and damages. It’s called accountability, something Barry Tilghman and Mike Dunn know nothing about.

See You At The Bottom Mike.
