2 Meter Readers In One Vehicle





Within minutes of all these pictures being taken, things got quite interesting. First there were two Meter Readers driving around in one vehicle at the end of the Plaza but they missed the first car parked the wrong way. Then, a few minutes later, another car decided this was a bright thing to do and they pulled in next to the other Dee, Dee, Deeeee and parked right along side of the other one. Oh well.

There's Another Scam In The Making!!!!!

Although I respect Mr. Bill Ahtes as a very successful businessman and a man, I do not agree with his attempts to get this old Fire House for free. There are far too many positive opportunities for economic and development within this particular building.

My first feeling towards this building is no different from what the Mayor and Council stated very early on and backed up all the way up until they started construction of the new Station, it is very important to keep this Station in operation for the safety of those in the Downtown area where much of what has been built is considered today an extreme fire hazard. Then there's the Camden Neighborhoods surrounding that area as well as the Church Street area to boot. Should the Draw Bridge be up and there is a serious fire, shutting down this Fire Station is just a bad idea!

It was in the plans to keep it open and that's what they need to deliver. However, should they close it, this building has some serious financial value. The City of Salisbury desperately needs funds to catch up to what Barrie & Co. have spent over the years and it would be vital to use this as a financial resource.

Put the building up for sale/auction and bring in the highest bidder. There are plenty of empty buildings in that area. Let someone privately donate one of their building that believes in a theater and keep the taxpayers out of the expense, they can't afford it right now. Keep in mind, two weeks ago I stood on PAC 14 and offered to buy this building and the next thing I know, there's Bill Ahtes trying to push to get a deal through before this Council resigns and Mike Dunn assured him it would be taken care of before then.

It seems to me that if they can create retired horses as surplus items and sell them off, how the heck can they not consider this building as a positive source for money? If the "rich" want to expand their lifestyles and house a theater, they can do so by proving they have the kind of backing to support such a project and not do so at the taxpayers expense, respectfully.

It's Amazing What ONE Light Bulb Can Do!



The lamp post that was out two nights ago near Charles Jannace's Office on Main Street was replaced. I wonder why? Nevertheless, there are still many lamps out all over the Downtown area. At least I'll be able to see what the criminal looks like at night if something were to happen. Oh, that's right, it hasn't happened in months ever since I've been down there. What say you now Chief Webster? I want a Badge!!!!

Why Doesn't The City Of Salisbury Have Extra Cash On Hand?


Because The Mayor's Office & Public Works is blowing cash like there's no tomorrow! That's right folks, tee shirts, bottled water, coffee mugs, you name it, these guys get it. Custom embroidered Golf Shirts that cost probably $60.00 a piece or so?

Yeah, buy up enough toys and leave the Council in the position they have no clue what they're spending and how much is actually there. Unbelievable Stuff! I say, cut off any more of this crap for the next 2 years, ALL OF IT! If any branch spends money on this kind of crap, the head of that department gets fired.

Your Tax Dollars Hard At Work Again Salisbury!!!!!

Jimmy's Grille Last Night

Perhaps if Barrie Tilghman actually walked the streets every so often she'd be offended by all those people dumping trash from their businesses all the time? Just think of it like this Barrie, it could firm up those legs and other flabby parts and actually be a healthy thing to do. In the mean time while I'm doing the walking for you, get them to do something about this. Obviously you have no control over your own City. This is such a joke.

The Truth Comes Out?

Public Works admitted last night, "We do not have enough water for Fire Protection." Is that the truth? Or is John Jacobs being slick again to force everyone into believing they need another $3,000,000.00 Water Tower? Of course, Barrie could be behind that scam too?

When The Mayor Lies, Her Neck Turns Red

Trust me, her neck was red the entire time she was there last night too.

Hey Charlie Boy

I was in your alley again last night and look what I found. I guess it's too above a lawyer to bend over and pick up the trash.

Here, Let Me Shove This B.S. Down Your Throat Puppets

Although I thought I'd have a better article than anyone else on the Blogosphere I awoke to a rude awakening by visiting Delmarva Dealings and this article. Talk about one of the best articles ever written on the Blogs!

Nevertheless, I need to offer just a few pointers. How can the City Council make decisions on 2008 when they don't even have a financial audit for 2006?

The Mayor stated, "The further we went, the behinder we got." IDIOT!

Barrie also went on to blame everything on not having enough Staff. Oh Bullshit! Forgive me folks but this woman is so full of crap it isn't funny. My Mother was a bookkeeper and worked for Temp Agencies for years and she would walk in and have a clear understanding of what she needed to do in a matter of a couple of hours. Barrie tried to state it would take too much time to teach these people how to do their work. BS!

Then Gary Comegys went on a rampage stating, we couldn't afford a lot of things we wanted and needed, how were we going to be able to afford hiring someone if we didn't have the money? Lynn Cathcart agreed but this clearly goes to show EVERYONE why these people are complete IDIOTS! Look, you had someone on a salary that quit or got fired. NOW, with them being GONE, you have their salary to work with, you IDIOT! No one was asking for ADDITIONAL FUNDS!

This is exactly why these Idiots must go! They know NOTHING about running a business. I can't even keep going, I'm so pissed off right now. I have NO respect for the five of them. Gary, Lynn, Mike, Shanie & Barrie! Make sure you read that Delmarva Dealings article.
