Back By Popular Demand
Too many FOB's, (honestly) calling me, cracking up and telling me how they just loved that photo. Of course there were also many EOB's, (enemies of Barrie's) calling as well. The Doody Man said it Folks, the Blogs are just hateful places to go and I guess he's right. Barrie, IF you think you have friends, well, let me just say this, they're not taking you seriously any more.
Perhaps during or after Monday's meeting Mike will stand up like a spoiled little girl shaking and waving the photo all over the place, face Debbie Campbell and say, "Are you proud of this Debbie?" I would reply, (not that you ever need advice Debbie) How does she make your lips move?
The Daily Times
One of the reasons I purchase the Daily Times is because I enjoy looking through the pictures in the Real Estate Section of Saturday's Newspaper.
However, today that section didn't arrive. Am I the only one, or did some of you not get it as well?
And We Can't Afford To Pay The Police More Money????
The pictures doesn't lie Folks and there's not much more that needs to be said here. It is what it is and it says what it says. I just happen to be this guy driving down the road with a camera and I shot this picture out the back window of my vehicle.
It's time for a change in Salisbury, all the way up to the Mayor's Office.

Another Local Business Bites The Dust
If you thought you had troubles in the past in Salisbury, expect things to get even worse. This was at least an outlet for young kids to go and enjoy, besides the Crown Center in Fruitland.
If I only had the property in Salisbury, I'd open an Indoor Arena for kids. A Skate Park, Indoor Paintball, Roller Rink, Entertainment and a Food Court. The rest is available elsewhere.
I know, how about I go ask the City Council for a $14,000,000.00 TIF and it will guarantee this business just can't fail?
Nevertheless, thanks for stepping in and helping this business survive Salisbury. In the mean time, I'm sure you enjoyed their tax dollars while it lasted.
One parent told me, their child and friends had a credit of paintballs in their account. That's a chunk of their allowance money down the drain.
Jimmy's Grille Must Love To Be In The Spot Light?
So Do Tell Me.........
How is it you send letters to the property owners in Salisbury "forcing" us to remove graffiti within 14 days but when it comes to what you're responsible for, it simply doesn't get done at all?
I have shown photos of graffiti that has been left up for years & many months and nothing is getting done. I say, from here on out, don't remove anything. Simply use the archives from this Blog Site to go to Court and show the Judge that the City MUST practice what it preaches and not do the old do as I say, not as I do pattern Barrie has used throughout her time as Mayor.
Are These Signs Campaign Signs?
NO! Not at all! They're rental advertisement signs illegally placed near the road advertising for college students as they start coming back to the area. It must be a group of FOB's because they do it all the time and nothing has stopped them yet. Then again, Tom Stevenson wasn't in the position to do anything in the past but he sure is responsible to do something about it now.
Let's see if it's slap on the wrist time or if the City will actually fine them flat out for breaking the law? We all know they know better.
It's No Wonder There's So Much Criminal Activity Downtown
Last night was a rude awakening when I saw so many lights out Downtown. The last photo shows the complete block of lights out from the Library all the way to Market Street Inn! There are even more burned out lights but it shouldn't take citizens finding these lamps. Someone working for the City is responsible for this and once again they're just NOT doing their job!
I posted something a few weeks ago about West Church Street having out several lights and they did in fact get repaired right away. However, NOT by the City as it was not their lamps. Let's see how long it takes the City to do their share of the replacements?
What am I costing the City now Mr. Jacobs? Oh yeah, by the way, I'm still Downtown both day and night each and every day. Just ask Chief Webster and or any Officer working evening shifts. They see me all the time. Good to see you last night PB!
