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

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!

More Proof The City Couldn't Care Less About Public Safety

No one is going to believe the Mayor and Staff do not read the Blogs, period. That being said, here's ANOTHER photo of the tunnel near Jimmy's Grille that is supplied with fluorescent lamps but NONE of them are working. I posted a picture about 2 weeks ago on this and nothing has been done?

This Mayor and John Jacobs couldn't care less and this is just more proof of why the Blogs are a necessity. The Daily Times isn't going to waste ink on such matters and I can't say as I completely blame them but the fact that they refuse to fix things clearly proves the City is running out of money and resources to keep things up to speed for a City this size.

Could the City be preparing for Bankruptcy????????

Street Lights Are OUT All Over The Downtown Area





I know the photos you are looking at are dark and I have adjusted them as bright as possible. However, when you have no lighting to work with, this is what you get.

I have posted pictures in the past showing how bad things are in the City when it comes to street lights but it's gotten out of hand and the City is NOT paying attention. Crime is going UP, not down.

This time I have shown different angles from the Market Street Inn all the way to the Library, not one street light onto the road is working. The street behind the Court House is also blacked out. The light in front of Charles Jannace's Office is out and has been for months. There are lights out in Lot 15 where numerous cars continue to get broken into and if I were one of the people living Downtown and my car was broken into, I'd go after the City for the bill because of neglect.

Get off your A*S Barrie & Jacobs. It's time to make things right Downtown. So you know, Barrie wants everything to fall apart Downtown to drive the value of property down so the FOB's can buy it up cheap and revitalize it all. Thanks, but no thanks Barrie. We don't need you and or your tight friends who only want free rides.

Nothing Is Off Limits When You're Hungry

This person was picking through the trash and actually found a half eaten Twix Bar. I can't remember if I've ever eaten half of a candy bar and threw it away in my entire lifetime? Oh well, you can't beat luck!

More Trash



In the alleyway behind Charles Jannace's Office, tenants are just throwing their trash wherever they want and making a mess of what can't be seen from the road. My guess is that the homeless are searching through these bags for whatever they can find worth eating.

19 have been accused of writing bad checks.

117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses.

3 have done time for assault.

71, repeat 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit .

14 have been arrested on drug-related charges.

8 have been arrested for shoplifting.

21 currently are defendants in lawsuits, and 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year.

Can you guess which organization this is?

Give up yet? . . . Scroll down,




Neither, it's the 535 members of the United States Congress.

The same group of Idiots that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line. You gotta pass this one on!

AND THEY JUST VOTED THEMSELVES $15,000 PER MONTH PENSION FOR LIFE AFTER SERVING ONLY ONE TERM IN CONGRESS!!

It's Very Interesting Where Some Campaign Signs End Up




The first property shown above is the very controversial property owned by Mike Dunn's father and or his partner. If you'll recall recently, the City Council just extended their agreement with them to either build it out or sell it. What was slick about it was the fact that their original contract stated they couldn't sell the property, period. Then when they extended their time to do something with it, they threw in language that if they did sell it, they would have to pay back the City for the original expenses. That's what they wanted out of the deal and the taxpayers were used once again. The other interesting part about the whole deal was the fact that even though they weren't supposed to sell it, they've had it up for sale for years anyway.

Nevertheless, isn't it interesting how they got their extension and now there's a Gary Comegys sign sitting near the property? Isn't there rulings as to how close to the highway they can actually place a sign as well?

The Taylor's have shown their support as well as Shanie Shields home as well.

More Howdy Doody Pictures

Crabbin' has taken a shot at photoshop. Who do you think did a better job?

Where Did The Campaign Signs Go?

It appears someone found Charles Jannace's vehicle parked Downtown this weekend where quite a few of the Rick Pollitt Campaign Signs had been collected by Mr. Jannace as a sign of good faith. Mr. Pollitt had wondered where so many of his signs had disappeared to before the actual election but Mr. Jannace assures everyone that these had just been picked up recently.

There's been no confirmation that this was actually Mr. Jannace's vehicle nor that any portion of this story is actually true. Things that make you go, hmmmmm?

Things Haven't Changed Much Since We Were Kids








These skateboarders are simply enjoying their day tooling around on their skateboards wherever possible. There has been a lot of talk about safety and protection for these kids but just like when we were younger, there's no helmets, knee pads, elbow pads or any other piece of protection our Government tells us is necessary.

I'm proud to have been a spokesman for these skateboarders to a point in which there is now much talk about actually doing something about a Skate Board Park. I wonder if we'll be able to beat Jim Rapp and his stupid Doggy Park to fruition? Let's see, like every other project he gets his hands on, he's got a 2 year head start on us and I'm betting even though there won't be any real construction for this Doggy Park, I think the Skate Park will be completed first.

I'd bet money Gary Comegys is going to have his picture taken at the meetings about this project, just to make himself look good, like he cares.

Home Catches Fire On Rt. 50






A fire broke out in this home early Sunday morning on Rt. 50. Don't forget where you came from John McCain.

Chief Webster Stalks And Harrases Me Daily




Your Chief Just can't let go. Although it's nice to see more patrolling around the Downtown area, stalking someone, honking your horn at me, waving and laughing is something a sick man or a very unstable man would do.

I hope "ALL" the Salisbury Police Officers can clearly see the pattern of what this man is capable of, should he decide to turn on one of his own. Barrie Tilghman has proven to do this same thing and instruct certain powers to be to turn on their own Staff. One of those Officers is now a very successful Officer in Fruitland, if you know what I mean Barrie & Chief Webster? I'm married to another one of them.

Oh, and for those who are trying to claim I'm stalking Chief Webster, Joe Albero doesn't move as fast as a moving car. Get a grip! These photos were taken last Friday afternoon.

Oh Look Honey, What A Beautiful Building. LOOK OUT! DUCK!





As nice as this building may appear at first glance, there are troubles around and within that would scare anyone visiting. Keep in mind Folks, the story you are about to read is NOT just about the outside of a building. This building is loaded with secret problems, not just obvious cosmetic problems or lead paint.

As Barrie Tilghman has kept everyone out of the loop on so many illegal issues while in office, we have uncovered yet another one. The doors to the lower level of this building are locked and secured for a reason. ASBESTOS! That's right, not only in the basement of this building loaded with it, the ceiling tiles throughout the building are also asbestos tiles. How much is the County covering up on us?

Then there's the question as to why the City never replaced the fluorescent lamp fixtures in the building when they know these fixtures are loaded with PCB Ballast's. I am told the fumes from these ballast's can cause rhuematoid arthritis. Sound familiar to some employees in that building?

If I worked in that building and I had come down with any form of cancer in my lifetime, I'd be after the City/County like there's no tomorrow. Let's see where this story brings us. Let's see if ANY of the MSM will challenge this story. Will they let ANYONE down into the basement of that building, or will they cover it up and make excuses as to why no one can go down there?

It's time to call in the specialists like the MDE & EPA because I have a witness that will testify in Court that all of this is factual and true. Barrie, you should learn to stop burning bridges, you Idiot. It's pissing enough people off that they just want to bury you, (so to speak).

Let's also see how long it takes before they fix the slate falling off the roof before it kills someone?
