A Great Place For Black Friday Shopping!

Beach Boy Or Council President?















It seems to me that anyone is this position would hold enough respect for the Citizens of Salisbury, (especially those who voted for him) would respect this position enough to get a haircut and certainly wear a tie.

Gary Comegys comes to each and every Council Meeting setting a fine example of how to dress as a Gentleman and respects his position to such a level.

Mike Dunn is more like the Randy Taylor Beach Boy look, even to the point he wears shorts and sandals to these meetings because he knows he can get away with anything he wants, he's a FOB.

I would like to see Mike Dunn, (I'll use the term Mr. Dunn when he starts showing some class) dress the part and show some respect. If you as a Council are demanding anyone who wants a tax exemption from a manufacturing company actually show up to these meetings physically, then wear a suit and tie, (even if it only cost you $4.00) and earn that respect. In the mean time, you're #1 Mikey.

By the way Mike, if you need a Hairdresser, I hear Charles Jannace has one available with a new opening.

911 Camden Avenue





















The Forbes Family simply can't take it any more. "Please just buy us out and we'll move on peacefully."

With all the out of control developing going on, 911 Camden Ave. became subjected to very poor planning and the runoff from every property around ends on this property. Most of the water that ends up there is what they call, "black water." This is water run off from the roads and is very unhealthy. It kills all the grass and plants very quickly. Their Insurance Company refuses to cover anything any more because of the massive damage it causes in flooding some 4 times a year.

"No Real Estate Company will touch our property, it's worthless." The City Council put on their smiley faces and because they knew this was in fact televised, they couldn't treat this poor family as harsh as they have off camera.

The Forbes produced photographs proving the water had gone up some 8 feet high into their garage, which they finally had to tear down because it became so rotted. The mold and mildew levels are so bad that the black mold has grown all the way into their attic! That's bad Folks!

If you see ANY black mold in your home I strongly suggest you get your Insurance Company in there right away before it spreads too far. I believe the Insurance Companies in Maryland will only cover up to $5,000.00 in repairs and trust me, that mold can grow so fast it isn't funny! Once it gets started it's very difficult to stop.

Most people who have mold in their home can't seem to smell it unless they get away from that property for several days and when they return it becomes very evident. Then they get used to it all over again and forget it's there. This mold can kill people, especially the elderly. It attacks the immunity system and it's down hill from there. People can get respiratory problems, nasal passage problems and can get colds and other illnesses very easily.

My suggestion to the Forbes Family is, expose this to the Press as often as possible and let it go to the Court of Public Opinion! If the City would have to spend some $2,000,000.00 for pipes that won't work anyway, the City should buy their home at a fair market value and tear the home down and put a park/playground there.

As Soon As Kim Hudson Left, Look What Happened!


This is pitiful! This is exactly what Barrie Tilghman, Mike Dunn, Gary Comegys & Lynn Cathcart want, an empty room with people who not only don't care, they want less and less public comment so they can rubber stamp anything and everything without looking bad.

They'll come back every time and say, well, if you were so concerned, why weren't you at the meeting? I'll have to agree with them.

Kim Hudson Day















I must admit, there are days, (rare as they may be) when I attend a City Council Meeting and walk away thinking, that was really cool. Kim Hudson, (Mother of 2 children) took it upon herself to make a difference in Salisbury and made sure the Winter Wonderland of Lights were turned on and paid for.

Although the Mayor was supposed to present this Proclamation, she was conveniently on the Western Shore and never did make the meeting at all. I'm sure the egg in her face for slamming down the Winter Wonderland of Lights last year, (hoping it would never return) was enough for her to probably sit in Brew River slamming several drinks and watching PAC 14 from a Bar Stool like she used to do.

Mike Dunn said, I believe the Mayor is on the Western Shore for a legitimate business meeting. Nevertheless, thank you Kim, you're a fine woman/citizen/mother/wife and Salisbury can use quite a few more just like you.

Folks, on November 25th at 4:00 p.m. they will officially turn on the lights. Don't miss it.

You're #1 Joe


I remember taking speech class back in High School where they taught you to stop saying, ummmm, a, a, a, a, know what I mean, things along that line.

I don't think it took any class to teach us NOT to use our middle finger ANYWHERE but this Council and Mayor get a real kick out of using it on a regular basis.

The question is, rather than a speech class, is there such a thing to teach "CLASS" and not use the middle finger?

Obviously I've not needed it and or been referred to it but I'm reaching out for help here.

Thanksgiving


Where will you be this Thanksgiving?

Live From Delmar, DE.
















The man sitting on the ground in the first picture behind the man standing with the white tee shirt is handcuffed and being arrested for assaulting his parents.

The Delmar Police and State Police were on the scene as well as the Fire Chief from Delmar. The Fire Chief informed me that it was not a good scene and the man caused quite a bit of trouble.

Fortunately the parents will be OK but it's a sad day in America whenever a child beats their parent/parents. This was a very big man too!

Mr. Ruark Is Up To No Good Again


Here we go again Folks! So you know in advance I will be posting in the next few days a link in which you will be able to view the very first Sassafras/City Council Meeting and once you see it you'll be blown away with what was stated and what they've done. Yess Barrie Tilghman & Mike Dunn, you're going down!

Nevertheless, Mr. Ruark is up to no good again. Are you familiar with Nutters Crossing and the newly expanded section? Mr. Ruark had promised that he would be adding his own water and sewer facilities there but rumor has it the entire project is becoming far too expensive and he's asking the City to annex the property into the City.

What gets me the most about these Builders is that they say they're going to do one thing, (in other words, LIE) and then they come back to the Taxpayers and force them to foot the bill for their wants and needs.

Seems to me that Mr. Ruark has become a master at this game! First of all, this property is NOT in the Smart Growth portion of the City. The City would not consider anything OUTSIDE the Bypass and as we can ALL recall, Mike Dunn stated VERY clearly that there would be "NO MORE LARGE ANNEXATIONS."

That being said, ALL of you now have the heads up on this issue/matter and it's time you step up to the plate and shut these Developers down! This property is NOT in the Comprehensive Plan and Mr. Ruark should be forced to eat his own words and or shut down his business and move elsewhere.

DELMARVA DEALINGS IS BACK!!!!!!!

The timing couldn't be better! Hadley, (AKA Charles Jannace) dropped out of the Bloggosphere, (Praise the Lord) to pursue Marriage Counseling and Parental Classes and likes to blame his misfortunes on his Blog and not his little brain.

My only thought is, boat season is over and G.A. has a lot of extra time on his hands. Could it be that when the season picks up again he'll drop his Blog again? Nevertheless, it's great to have you guys back as I've always enjoyed your style of writing. I can only hope it lasts?

I'll add your Link today.

Other Uses For Used Campaign Signs



I was having a problem with a hook on one of our barn doors so I was able to pry the door open with a Charles Jannace sign and it worked perfectly. I then became even more creative and considering I had so many extra signs no one would take from the beginning, I re-shingled my entire barn roof with Charles Jannace signs. I'm told I'll get a good 20 years out of them. Do you have any ideas for these nasty campaign signs?

More Proof The Staff At The Zoo Are Careless & Lazy


Back in the day it might have been one thing to rake up all these leaves but I have personally seen them using "professional blowers" where they can very easily remove dead leaves.

The fact that it started raining right after this photo was taken means that things got slippery and more risky simply because they're too lazy to do their jobs.

I know I can get picky at times about the Zoo but look, this is just ridiculous. They have a full time groundskeeper working there and what's even more interesting is that I've watched Zookeepers doing the cleaning up of the walkways recently, so there's just no excuse.

I know for a fact there are literally hours in a day these Zookeepers have absolutely nothing to do and even make things up so they can stop from going crazy. This is out of line, it's risky and it needs to be cleaned up immediately.

How To Get ALL Candidates To Remove Their Signs Immediately!


They say there's more than one way to skin a cat. Well let's think of this as the "Albero Bronx Way."

My suggestion is, each person reading this Post can head out ASAP and start picking up only the signs you want. When you've collected a ton of them, wait till December 3rd and start putting them up again!

I believe the fine is $50.00 per sign and this will get these people off their rear ends if they want to save themselves a ton of money! They look horrible and the elections are over.

Maybe the City/County can offer a reward for each sign collected? It could help the local homeless collect a few bucks for themselves as well?

Heck, everyone reading this Blog Site knows darned well we'll be out on the road looking for any signs left over, so they better get on the ball soon.

You know what we say, you either love me or you hate me. The idea is lovable, the fines are not. My guess is that you'll see Alessi/Ollinger going out in rain gear today picking up Charles Jannace Signs.

Please check with your Local Police and see if there's any laws against this first. :-)

Welcome To The Salisbury Zoo


Come with me little boys and girls.

If some of the Zookeepers didn't dress like this they might actually find stuff like this offensive!

However, they say and do nothing and the children are subjected to stuff like this every day.

Before you make any "cracks" Jimbo, I didn't take the picture.

Highway Robbery!








Just take a look at the prices for this junk! A small soda cost a mere $2.00?

Get This! For the Hospitality Suite where they feed the Judges lunch, are you ready? $28.00 a plate!

These are just some very small reasons why I still think this Show should be moved to Ocean City. We'll not get into Hotel rates and other taxes the City of Salisbury is slamming everyone with while visiting.

Local Judge Cathy Williams Knows Her Stuff!





It turns out the show dog Cathy Williams chose while Judging is the exact dog that took the Show yesterday. That says a lot about just how good a job she did. She's got the eye!
