Crack In Airplane Window-Unbelievable
This is scary for anyone who travels frequently by plane!!!! Actual crack in a DC-9 window! Fliers beware of the sub standard maintenance on the airplanes that you fly on.
This is an actual crack that was found in the window frame on a DC-9. I'll definitely think twice before flying US Air.

MAYBE BARRIE WILL GIVE US THE WWTP POOP TODAY
The budget media event that Barrie Tilghman is doing this afternoon is a perfect time for her to give us that now long overdue briefing that Barrie promised when the WWTP fiasco became public. This is from WMDT's report by Keira Benson on March 23:
Salisbury Mayor Barrie Tilghman held a press conference on the issues at the plant Monday after she says information was leaked to the media. She says it was confidential because there could be litigation pending and she doesn't want to jeopardize it.
Tilghman says, "What we were doing was to try and get the consultant in here to give us a better idea of what was going on . . . brief the Council and the first week in April hopefully talk to the public about this."

A Final Note On "Tea Bagging"
Here is one final note on the very humorous side of this whole thing. If you have never heard the term "teabagging" before then consider yourself lucky. I know the slang definition has been around since I was little and everytime I hear someone say it in relation to the "Tea Parties" it just conjures up some pretty silly images.
If you are a diehard "tea partyist" you might not want to follow this link because ignorance is afterall bliss. But if not, go ahead and see what the rest of us are laughing about.

HERE'S INSIDE POOP ON SALISBURY"S WWTP
Joe:
"I recently spoke with someone who is a professional engineer and teaches about sewage treatment at a major university. I mentioned the recent disclosure about the problems with Salisbury’s new WWTP, and he was interested when I told him that it was designed by O’Brien & Gere and sent the press release you posted. He has sent the attached material about the WWTP and that firm, which is continuing to tout the plant on its website. Apparently O&G got a patent on the system, and the City paid for most of the cost to get it.
My contact feels that the system is a hybrid that could be loaded with problems. Also he wonders if the City has waived its rights to recover the cost of making it operational that could be millions of dollars.
He also thinks that the use of “sugar water” – mentioned in the article "Salisbury WWTP" -- may be a cause of much of the problem. Also, the system may operate better in the summer than in the winter due to higher ambient temperature and the treatment processes that are involved."
This is an unbelievable find! It should also make the Mayor's Press Conference quite interesting today. They have clammed up on this issue and we always knew there was something highly suspicious about this WWTP.
Mayor Tilghman is exactly what I claimed she was 4 years ago.
Dave Suiter Gives Us An Update
Quick update,
Stopped in Gardner,KS for night. 9 hours on the road!!!
Left Onley,IL this AM. Cloudy with north wind (15-25) so temp stayed around 43 on bikes thermometer.
Notice how narrow Old 50 is. Did heel and toe across and looks to be 16' wide. I remember riding in the truck with my Dad on old US6 back in late 40s early 50s. It was so narrow that we had to slow and move right to get past a truck coming the other way.
In my last I mentioned something about seeing an eagle fly. Sure enough, looked up and saw this guy circle and land. Slammed on the brakes and went back to get a pic. Am I getting the eagle eye??
Sun finally broke through near Sedalia, MO. Temp went up 10 degrees. Great ride through central MO.
Side trip to Desoto, MO to see guy I got my 62 Pontiac from. He still has his 62 Bonne convert!!
Looks like winter warning for SE Colorado. Nuts!!!!!!!

Winner for Best License Plate Award
Limited Edition Centennial Plate Announced as Winner for Best License Plate Award
Special Recognition for the First Plate to Ever Honor the History of License Plates
Dover -- It's Official! After a nationwide vote of the Automobile License Plate Collectors Association (ALPCA), Delaware's Limited Edition Centennial License Plate has won the Best License Plate of the Year Award. Other finalists for the award were Alaska, Minnesota, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Wyoming.
The black onyx & heritage gold colored plate - which honors the 100th anniversary of the license plate in Delaware - was selected for its combination of attractiveness and legibility of design. This is the first time in the nearly 40 year history of the program that Delaware has won the award.
Governor Jack Markell was genuinely excited when he stated, "It took one hundred years to be able to release the Delaware Centennial License Plate. Clearly, its selection as plate of the year means it is making the most of its limited run. Our DelDOT and Division of Motor Vehicles team did a great job designing and promoting the plate. I look forward to them winning again in 2059 for its Sesquicentennial run."
"We're thrilled to announce that Delaware has the nation's best license plate design this year," said ALPCA President Jeff Francis. "With so many states opting for elaborate graphics," said Mr. Francis, "it's refreshing to see a distinctive design that is still easy to read by law enforcement."
Since the Centennial Plate was introduced last fall, thousands of Delaware motorists have purchased one for their vehicle. The unique plate design is a celebration of 100 years since the first state-issued license plate was produced in 1909. Delaware is the first state ever to produce a commemorative license plate of this kind. Several other "firsts" for the awarding winning plate include being the first fully embossed license plate with raised letters and numbers in Delaware since 1941, as well as being the first optional license plate in the world where the validation sticker colors were designed to match the colors of the plate itself.
Centennial Plates may be displayed on all registered Delaware vehicles except motorcycles, mopeds, and IRP apportioned vehicles. Centennial Plate numbering matches the plate number currently assigned to the registered vehicle. All numerical plates and those with prefixes PC, RV, FT, C, CL, T, and D, as well as all vanity plates are permitted. Available for purchase for $100 through December 31, 2009, a Centennial Plate order can be placed with a credit card online at www.dmv.de.gov. Customers may also visit any DMV office, or call (302) 744-2503.
Since 1970, ALPCA has sponsored the annual Best License Plate Award program. Founded in 1954, ALPCA has over 3,500 members worldwide, and is the world's oldest and largest non-profit organization devoted to researching, collecting, and promoting license plates.

Is It True, Sunday's Paper Was Thinnest Ever?
I received several calls on Sunday and Monday saying they had never seen such a small Sunday Daily Times Newspaper. One person even said they printed the Comics in the paper itself because there were next to no sale inserts.If this is the case, these guys are failing fast. To those of you who are still getting a subscription to the paper, let us know what you thought of the Sunday paper.
DO YOU DENOUNCE THE BLOGS?
More than a month ago I stood in front of the Mayor and City Council on PAC 14 and asked Mr. Comegys if he still denounced the Blogs? Louise Smith immediately intercepted my question and demanded that Gary Comegys NOT answer that question. I immediately said, OK then Louise, let me change my question. I then asked to hear from each and every City Council Member if they denounced the Blogs. Louise replied, we'll get back to you on that question Mr. Albero.
Not only has it been more than 40 days, I made contact with some Council Members and asked if they had been directed to respond to that question and they said, NO. I repeated what I said and added, did Lore' Chambers or anyone else ask you to respond to that question, NO.
The reason I had asked was because we have information tying Louise Smith, Shanie Shields, Gary Comegys and Chief Webster to Jonathan Taylor and since the Mayor's own Son runs his own Blog, yet she denounces all Blogs, we wanted a direct answer to show these people were all tied to the nastiest Blogger known to mankind.
They refuse to answer this question because they know we have evidence tying them to this Blogger and if they simply don't answer they simply won't be lying. They used another Blogger for their smear campaign during the election and the funniest part about it is, the majority of the Citizens that voted clearly told us, they do NOT believe Gary Comegys by a long shot. They do NOT believe Barrie Tilghman and from the looks of the comments seen here recently on this Blog the Citizens don't trust Chief Webster either.
That being said, Hosting a Blog that attacks people like Debbie Campbell, Jim Ireton, Cynthia Polk, to me, seems to be a pretty stupid way to run a Blog in the hopes of expanding your readership. The only answer to that is, they want to continue a smear campaign even though the Citizens have spoken.
If anyone thought the Tilghman Administration was going away, they're sadly mistaken. In fact, they're mad and they're going to attempt to make the next 4 years a miserable 4 years. If Shanie Shields holds on to win and Mayor Ireton presents items for the agenda in which Barrie doesn't want moves through, they'll simply vote 3-2 and reject anything and everything they so choose.
While "Help Is On The Way" and the Citizens voted for change, the games may be just beginning. Strap on your seat belts Folks because things are going to get very interesting. They didn't denounce the Blogs because they helped create a new one.

NEW DATE RAPE DRUG ON THE MARKET CALLED BEER.....
Police are warning all men who frequent clubs, parties and local pubs, to be alert and stay cautious when offered a drink from any woman. Many females use a date rape drug on the market called "Beer" to target unsuspecting men.
The drug is generally found in liquid form and is now available almost anywhere. It comes in bottles, in cans, from taps, and in large "kegs."
Beer is used by female sexual predators at parties and bars to persuade their male victims to go home and have sex with them. Typically, a woman needs only to persuade a guy to consume a few units of Beer and then simply ask him home for no-strings-attached sex. Men are rendered helpless against this approach.
After several beers, men will often succumb to desires to perform sexual acts on horrific- looking women to whom they would never normally be attracted.
After drinking Beer, men often awaken with only hazy memories of exactly what happened to them the night before, often with just a vague feeling that "something bad" occurred.
At other times these unfortunate men are swindled out of their life savings, in a familiar scam known as "A Relationship." It has been reported that in extreme cases, the female may even be shrewd enough to entrap the unsuspecting male into a longer-term form of servitude and punishment referred to as a "Marriage."
Apparently, men are much more susceptible to this scam after Beer is administered and sex is offered by the predatory females.
Please forward this warning to every male you know. (And women with a sense of humor!) If you fall victim to this insidious Beer and the predatory women administering it, there are male support groups with venues in every town where you can discuss the details of your shocking encounter in an open and frank manner with similarly affected, like-minded guys.
For the support group nearest you, just look up "MOTORCYCLE CLUBS" in the yellow pages

A Comment Worthy Of A Post
Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "PRMC Ranked In "BEST HOSPITAL" Report":
I went in for a total hysterectomy and in the 3 days that I was there, never once did a nurse or aide provide me with a wash basin or offer to wash my back...I lumbered into the bathroom w/IV tubes, etc. to try to wash up at the sink...Also, in 3 days, my sheets were not changed. The only thing that was changed was the folded sheet/pad underneath my bottom. I used to work there and saw a lot of what went on.
Funny thing, after previous stays, I got something in the mail asking me how I felt my stay was. This time, they were afraid of what my response would be. I had to get assertive with the nurse when she made me wait over 2 hours for my pain medicine (which was only ibuprofen).
I must say that my doctor (Dr. Jennings) was excellent, very attentive. It is an awful place to work and an even more pathetic place to be a patient.

Chestnut Manor Apartments Reach Out To Law Enforcement Agencies
"Attention: Law Enforcement Agencies
We, the residents of Chestnut Manor Apartments I &II located on 800 E. Chestnut Street Delmar, Maryland 21875 have a serious drug infested problem within the complex. This problem has been on going for quite sometime and the Delmar Police Department has been informed and nothing has been done about it. The problem is so bad that the property manager can’t get any cooperation from the local police department. It’s funny how the police can patrol the area at night , but can’t do anything about the drug dealers that live in the complex. We observed Friday night (1/9/09) the volume of traffic going into building 200, apartment #201. There was so many people going in and out of the apartment, we thought it might have been Halloween. There were cars parked everywhere and people dashing in and dashing out. Also, there was lots of foot traffic as well from building 200 to 400. The building 600 and 1100 has drug trafficking as well. We are concerned about the safety of the elderly and disabled residents that live on the property. We fear that if something is not done about this problem, Chestnut Manor will be like Pemberton Manor in Salisbury. The residents would suggest, if possible, more police patrol or a substation. We feel that this is a serious problem so we are mailing this letter to the following agencies: Sheriff Mike Lewis, Maryland State Police- Comm. Lt. Daniel Nelson, State’s Attorney Office- Davis Ruark, Delmar Police Dept.- Chief Harold Saylor and Rural Development- Marlene Elliott Brown. Maybe if all the agencies gather their resources and put them together something can be done about this problem. Citizens are told to report crime and drug activity and this is what this letter is intended for. Thank you for your time and consideration.
AS OF April 14,2009 NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE 4 month now."

The Horth Whithperer
A guy calls his buddy, the horse rancher, and says he's sending a friend over to look at a horse.
His buddy asks, 'How will I recognize him?'
'That's easy; he's a dwarf with a speech impediment.'
So, the dwarf shows up, and the guy asks him if he's looking for a male or female horse.
'A female horth.'
So he shows him a prized filly.
'Nith lookin horth. Can I thee her eyeth?'
So the guy picks up the dwarf and he gives the horse's eyes the once over.
'Nith eyeth, can I thee her earzth?'
So he picks the little fella up again, and shows him the horse's ears.
'Nith earzth, can I thee her mouf?'
The rancher is getting pretty ticked off by this point, but he picks him up again and shows him the horse's mouth.
'Nice mouf, can I see her twat?'
Totally mad at this point, the rancher grabs him under his arms and rams the dwarf's head up the horse's fanny, pulls him out and slams him on the ground.
The midget gets up, sputtering and coughing.
'Perhapth I should rephrase that. Can I thee her wun awound a widdlebit?'
His buddy asks, 'How will I recognize him?'
'That's easy; he's a dwarf with a speech impediment.'
So, the dwarf shows up, and the guy asks him if he's looking for a male or female horse.
'A female horth.'
So he shows him a prized filly.
'Nith lookin horth. Can I thee her eyeth?'
So the guy picks up the dwarf and he gives the horse's eyes the once over.
'Nith eyeth, can I thee her earzth?'
So he picks the little fella up again, and shows him the horse's ears.

Taxes
Taxes Are Patriotic!
A Dutchman was explaining the red, white, and blue Netherlands flag to an American.
"Our flag is symbolic of our taxes. We get red when we talk about them, white when we get our tax bills, and blue after we pay them."
The American nodded. "It's the same in the USA only we see stars, too!"

Income Tax Day Freebies & Deals
Enjoy this list of free Income Tax Day freebies and deals! As always with these day-long freebies, you might want to call ahead and make sure your local branch is participating.
Tax Day Freebies
Free Taco Del Mar Taco - This freebie actually arrives as a coupon via e-mail, so be sure to sign up for it now just in case it takes them a day to send it to you.
Free Cinnabun Bites - This one’s only going on from 5-8pm, so be sure to plan your trip accordingly. I almost made a horrendous pun about planning my trip, as in falling down, and how I felt weird about it. You’re welcome that I abandoned aforementioned pun.
Free MaggieMoo’s Ice Cream - As part of their “e-cone-omic” ice cream stimulus package ( ), they’re giving away a free scoop of ice cream to anybody who stops by throughout the day. As a thank you for the freebie, I officially forgive them for using the term “e-cone-omic.”
Free HydroMassage - If you have a location near you, call them up today and make an appointment for Wednesday! My back has been killing me lately, so I would die for a free massage right about now.
Tax Day Deals
P.F. Chang’s China Bistro Discount - Stop in for a meal and get 15% off your bill.
McCormick and Schmick’s Gift Certificate - Basically, if you eat here on tax day, they’ll give you a $10.40 gift certificate for any future visit. That’s kind of a key point, because I can see a lot of people mistakenly thinking they’ll be able to use the GC as soon as they eat on Wednesday.
Chick-fil-a Rebate - I can’t find an official press release from them, but a few different news outlets are reporting on this so I feel it’s fairly legit. Go to your local Chick-fil-a on Wednesday, make a purchase, and save the receipt. Then take the receipt back any day between April 16-30 and get a free meal of whatever you purchased!
T.G.I. Friday’s Gift Card - Spend $15-$25 on April 15th and receive a $5 gift card. Spend over $25 and receive a $10 gift card. In addition, remember the latest Budget Busters post where I mentioned TGIF had a reward program? Well, it turns out that for the entire month of April, you earn double points. So if you spend $50 between now and April 30th, you’ll receive an $8 gift card to boot.
If you know of any more...please let us know!

Wicomico County Library System Celebrates 140 Years Today
Today at 11:00 the Wicomico County Library System will celebrate its 140th year. There's been no Press Release that I'm aware of and I'll simply take a guess that they'll hold this celebration at the main Library in Downtown Salisbury.
