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.

Let's Examine The County Council President

Oh Look, a tie!
Oh My, he's actually reading a document!

Ahhhhh, the Gavel is actually relaxed and unused!

Just a few more months Folks and the City will be saved!

Nasty Old Blogs!

FOB??????

Do Puppets Ever Have To Work For A Living?

That nasty old Blogger Albero, how is he everywhere and how does he always snag us like this?

Well, for starters, you have to be out and about each and every day, unlike the Daily Times.

Then you have to ask yourself, why would Gary Comegys be in a meeting with the Mayor? Oh yeah, that's right, the audit is WAY overdue and we must prepare for the excuses we're about to lay on the public after I already lied to them a couple of weeks ago by stating ON TV that it was already done! BARRIE TILGHMAN IS A LIAR! And she admitted it tonight.

More to come..............

BRRRRRRRR!




I may have been out in the bitter cold weather most of the day and night but I can assure you, coming home to a beautiful Wife and a blast of a Grandson, life just can't get any better than this! The stuffed chicken breasts were a nice treat to come home to as well.

Oh yeah, the picture. Pretty cool, eh? Those nasty old Blogs!

It's One Thing When Big Brother Is Watching YOU

It's another when Big Momma, (us) are watching them. I've always been amazed at how Governments can take pictures of us all day long but God Forbid we have an eye on them.

Mike Dunn can cry the blues with Lynn Cathcart all he wants about the negativity from the Blogs and our damaging their spirit. However, you've had your eyes on the City and failed to prove you were doing anything to move the City in the right direction. That is, unless we're out there slamming them with proof/photographs and they are forced to make things right.

By the way Vic, (the Police Officer in this photo) we thank you for your service, (almost 20 years now) and obviously this person taking this picture was pleased to see you giving out a ticket to an illegally parked vehicle when his/her time ran out on the meter.

Don't forget your camera phone when you see the Mayor at the next party.

I Told You So!


Mrs. Doris Schonbrunner made her debut this morning joining the County Council on her very first day on the new job.

I read on Monoblogue earlier that The Daily Times will finally mention this in their Newspaper tomorrow, 9 or 10 days after I broke the story. Looks like you're really getting your money's worth with that Paper. LOL

Nevertheless, The County is VERY fortunate to have such a talented and experienced executive backing them up and I for one am very please she has agreed to take this position moving the County forward in the right direction.

I'm simply going to tell each and every one of you right here and now. If you're going to come on here to simply bash Doris I will immediately delete your comments and that's final. Some got past me the last go around but I won't miss a beat this go around. That especially goes out to Charles Jannace.

As for the Davis Ruark photo where he's cracking up, one of the County Council Members asked what the deal was in the paperwork where it stated in order to qualify you must be able to crawl. They all cracked up and elected to immediately remove that as one of the qualifications. Davis did say, well you have to crawl before you walk.

Is It Just Political Events?

There was much said about our new Governor and his Wife falling asleep at a recent political event. However, coming from a guy who takes a LOT of pictures, it's not very difficult at all to catch someone looking like they're asleep, when in fact they are not.

Take Good Ol' Mr. Holland here for example. Considering I was sitting very close to him I know for a fact when I spoke with him he was wide awake. He laughs at all my jokes and his laugh even sounds like a snore. Hey, wait a minute, maybe he was sleeping? Nah, couldn't be! My jokes are too funny..........

Stevie Prettyman Slams John Cannon


Click On Image To Enlarge
I believe this letter/statement says it all Folks. However, it should be known that No One and I mean No One, can slam Stevie Prettyman without her coming back and knocking you on your ass.
If I know Stevie as well as I'll claim to submit here, she's said her piece, it's over with and she is one of the very few people who knows how to be a professional and roll it off her back from that moment forward and move on for the better interest of Wicomico County and you can take that to the Bank.
As for who raised their hands, Gail & Joe. Even though the rest of them were VERY aware of what was going on, they chose NOT to raise their hands and admit they knew what was going on. Slick move there Stevie! I like this woman!
