The Daily Times Buries WWTP Human Feces Spill!
If you're looking for the Sewage Spill in Salisbury within the Daily Times you're going to have to take quite a bit of time searching for it because they buried it on page B3.
Two things are going on here Folks. Either the Mayor has some serious influence over the Daily Times and they buried it OR there have been so many of these spills, (10,000 gallons yesterday) that it's what they call, old news?
Either way, it always cracks me up when that Housewife gets up there and says, "It's like driving down the highway at 55 mph and changing the motor as your going along." Uh, let's see, DINGBAT comes to mind every time I hear the Mayor make that statement. Let's see, Salisbury is the ONLY City experiencing a WWTP upgrade? NOT! This is going on all around America and no one is going through the problems Salisbury is experiencing.

God's Special Gift To Salisbury
They were everywhere yesterday. Here’s one over Christ Church on Phillip Morris Drive in Salisbury. From our friend Dan.
Question of the Day, Wed 6/18
Lightning. Bad stuff. I had a classmate of mine die from lightning striking him a few years ago. So, I have a question today, but it feels more like a thought:
When lightning strikes the ocean, why doesn't the fish die?
When lightning strikes the ocean, why doesn't the fish die?
Back In The Day!

Yesterday I was standing on the grounds where the Mayor was going to hold her Press Conference when I looked down and saw something that brought back memories for me and I'm sure for many of you.
HOWEVER, don't be so quick to think everyone knows what this is! While standing there with Tom Stevenson and a few of us other older guys, (I don't have gray hair like those old guys do though) we knew what it was but Katherine Amenta, (WMDT) and Laura D'Alessandro, (the Daily Times) were CLUELESS! They said, what's that? When we told them they were like, UH UHhhHH!
I'll never forget telling my kids years ago that I was going to buy them a phone with a cord on it, you know, the ones you plug into the wall and doesn't require a power cord to charge the phone. They said, where's the plug? I said, that's the whole point. Your Dingbat Mother keeps forgetting to charge the phone, this one doesn't have to be plugged in. How does it work then? It was at that moment I realized they had no clue what I was talking about. Heck, for all I know there may be a few thousand readers reading this post going, what the hell is that Idiot talking about, there's no phone out there without a power cord! LOL!
This is why we so desperately need Museums! I can't believe I'm saying this!
Did O'Malley Unload His Cat Too?
.jpg)
Some Scumbag dropped off this almost dead, skinny, bony kitten to our home on Father's Day. I was sitting on the front porch when I heard a meow and thought, NO WAY!
The next thing I knew, Jennifer was out there calling out to this kitten like a mother would and he popped up onto the porch. I immediately went inside and got it some milk and he went to town drinking it like he seriously hadn't eaten in many days. So whomever dropped off this kitten hadn't fed it in quite some time.
Look, I'm not opposed to taking in animals if someone is desperate but to do so where the animal is almost dead, that's cruel! So whomever you are, EAT YOUR HEART OUT SCUMBAG because this animal is now healthy, playful and loving life, like he should have been treated when he was born. If there were others, I hope you know that they never made it to our front steps and that should be on your shoulders, a$$hole.
As for O'Malley, trading in your dog simply because it barks simply means you're too freakin lazy to TRAIN your animal and or HIRE someone to do it for you. So what did you do? You pushed the animal off to someone else or the animal was put down because your spoiled ass couldn't handle it or take the time to better the life of a perfectly good animal. Some pet owners flat out SUCK! In O'Malley's case, the animal is better off!
