Salisbury Festival Update

I am expecting an update tomorrow morning announcing the Chamber of Commerce rejecting/denying A.S.A.P. from participating any sponsorship to the Salisbury Festival. Long Live The Blogs!

I just heard that Heritage of Salisbury is now the sponsor of the Salisbury Festival.

Great job on stepping up to take over!

Good to hear! I can only imagine how many emails the chamber got and it looks like they might actually listen to the public - a novel idea it seems here in salisbury. I saw the story yesterday on channel 16 and just shook my head. Ridiculous!

I'd rather be called that than a thief.

I bet the Pocomoke Chamber would take him as a sponsor of the Cypress Festival!

I too believe Ray has some sort of dental problem commonly referred to as innoc-dent. I doubt however that he has joined a quilting club. Most criminals join that club only after entering the big house.

It's hard to imagine a chamber of commerce that would even consider allowing a business under a cloud of such suspicion to sponsor any event at all. I believe it brings the leadership of this group into question.

Try hanging out with a better group. Your filthy language will never impress anyone. Now be a nice boy and go crawl back in your hole until your vocabulary improves.

Anonymous 9:25 -I'm surprised any Chamber of Commerce would want a member like you. It's people of your demeanor that gives any association a bad name.I believe you should join the West Chamber of Commerce that is being formed for low life. Good luck in being accepted.

i will never support a business that has stolen all that they did. There is enough evidence that the crime was committed. no question about it. so why defend a scum bag like him. with his many successful businesses and 50 rental homes, i think he could have afforded not to steal. what a loser. and the city of salisbury would be flipping idiots to ever allow him or his company to sponsor anything. just my two cents

Bob said...

Darnell - My goodness! Your obviously extremely intelligent. I certainly wouldn't want to match wits with you. When you get that West Side Chamber fired up, let me know.

I can not believe that there are some people out there who still believe in Ray Lewis.. he is a crook who charges people out the ying yang for rent by the week and then does what he does and was the mastermind behind it all.. as if he doesn't have enough money as it is....

Anonymous said...

R. Lewis has been heard to say that he's waiting to hear how much the authorities think he "owes" so that he can stroke a check. Poof! That will take care of the whole ugly thing! What kind of dream world is this guy living in?

Anonymous said...

The Chamber has as much courage as Ray Lewis has integrity. If they couldn't find someone in their leadership to tell Ray why this is not a good year for him to sponsor the Festival, they're more spineless that I thought. Chamber, don't do the politically expedient thing, do the right thing.

Ray also ripped the average person off with his business. A friend of mine bought a home. The septic needed to be tested and then pumped. Well Ray Lewis, did the pumping and did not follow protocol on testing the septic and pumping the septic. My friend thought the septic was find, bought the house and in one month the septic failed. She tried endlessly to get A.S.A.P. to reimburse, because it was their bad business ethics she bought a house with a bad septic system. All this could have been avoided if A.S.A.P. did their job. There is more to A.S.A.P. then just stealing from the county. I would never do any business with that company who treats their customers the way they treated my friend.

alright, I'm out of my hole I crawled into with my filthy mouth. I recieved an email nicely letting me know that the theif will not be sponsoring the festival, which of course by now is old news, but I must address the commenter who does not appreciate my choice of words. I do not need to impress you or anyone else. I have a masters from umbc. I live in Old Towne. I am also a girl. So why don't YOU crawl into a hole, since you are so offended by a few curse words and stop judging and catagorizing. Who the hell do you think you are? I and everyone else can judge Lewis because he admitted to stealing. HE ADMITTED HE IS A THIEF. What will you admit you are? P.S. GET A LIFE LOOSER!!!

Judge Joe? You have set yourself up as judge of public opinion after you have tainted the little minds of the small group of followers.You are a hiprocritical judgemental jerk. Ray has not been convicted of anything and should be treated as such.Some people want to know when you became perfect and got your halo for your swelled head.Now post this Big Boy.

JUST WHO IS THIS RAY LEWIS? I don't know him, had never heard of him before all this hit the newswaves, but it would seem that he is some kind of local celebrity, or hero of some weird sort. There seem to be endless numbers of people who feel compelled to defend his actions, or a maybe its just a couple of people who have nothing else to do except go on the blog and stick up for his constitutional rights. It's very disturbing.
