Long Time
Yes, it's been a while since a post was posted. Busy, busy, busy.
What do you want to speak about?
How about your favorite pot hole or bump in the road? What's up with the cut across Main Street at State? For some reason, we notice other towns and their traffic flow and how their asphalt seems to hold up for a longer period of time - even in the County.
How about your thoughts on whether the City is ready for snow? The news states most cities and towns are not ready for the big storm barrelling across the nation. Main Street use to be one of the few streets plowed during a storm, by the State. The City owns Main Street now and we can only watch and see.
Are you all ready to ban assault rifles? Do you feel Social Security taking a hit from big government is a good thing?
Lots to talk about.

Another Day In Paradise!
Will someone please go help 10214 Bradford Road? They must be in terrible distress, flying the American flag upside down. Yes, it's an international symbol of distress, so we know they're in trouble. Thanks.
Speaking of the election, we understand there were 30 absentee ballots tossed out of the 1st District on election day. Usually this means the Precinct Chairs could not determine voter intent. There are usually 3 to 5 absentees that may be tossed by a Precinct, but 30? What's up with that?
Have a great weekend. Our family is getting ready for Thanksgiving. How about yours?

YMCA
Do you feel the County may get sick of the City and stop paying their share of the Y? If they did or do, our property taxes will go up....
Going, Going, Gone!
There seems to be a lot to talk (or gossip) about.
Have you heard Gahan wants to pass a $14 million dollar bond for a Little League Park and swimming pool?
Have you heard Coffey and Gahan have made a pact? If Coffey supports the split of the Parks the west end children can swim free at the pool? Does that even make sense? I've heard Coffey is carrying on about this fact, but wouldn't you think all disadvantaged children should have a pass to the pool?

2012 ELECTIONS - CONTINUED
Won't be long now. Three weeks and counting!
For school board, we are endorsing Knable and Gardenour. Lee Cotner - I'm undecided as of yet, though I admit I like you more than the rest of the candidates.
Not that too many people care, but we still endorse OBAMA for President.
We'll vote for Joe Donnelly.
Hope Yoder wins.
Hope Gregg wins for Governor, though we still like Rupert but can't afford to waste one vote.
For County Commissioner, we are pulling for Roudenbush!
County Council - Brad Streigel; Carol Shope - anyone else?
Keep it civil, please. Thanks.

WE KNOW THAT!
Can the City outsource our ambulance without getting bids? How can that be?
Maybe the same way the trees were taken down at the postage stamp size park designated to be the "Bicentennial Park"? No questions asked, no rules followed, just deforestation. We would have remembered the outcry when St. Mary's took their trees down to put the steeple up. This is even worse.
Though, we have to say - we always thought the City owned that postage stamp before we bought it (again). The only people who could park there had to go through the City. Harvest Homecoming always used it for a stage area. Who knows?
We would also like to know why the City went outside the State of Indiana for a history book of our fair City when we have our own historian in town (who has already wrote several books about the subject), namely Gregg Seidl. What does the guy down in Tennessee know that Gregg doesn't know?
We agree with Coffey - NO INSURANCE for Benedetti, Zurschmeide and Caesar. WHAT A FRIGGING JOKE. The ones who have the most always seem to want more, and more, and more...
The concert Friday night in New Albany was/is another joke. Literally about 30 people attended and for what and for whom? We are truly (not) sorry a certain individual bar/restaurant is not large enough for his own venues. Some taxpayers wish to sue in order to stop our money being used for one, ONE, individual benefit.
Oh, well. A wish list sure to be denied.

NEXT????
Who's next? Will they wait until after the election? We say probably.
The birdies are chirping and the rumor mill is running rampant. Will Coffey and his side kick Maury be next in line, along with their cousins?
Why are you upset, Linda? We know complaints were filed with you about Coffey. Did you not refer them to the right parties? Who knows?
As the caption states - NEXT?

ANYONE ELSE?
Boy, that was a news flash yesterday about Etheridge and Josh Clemons. We're just wondering if it's the tip of the iceberg.
Two ballots were wrong? The people weren't eligible to vote? There was a whole lot more than two ballots wrong with that election and we've always known the high rise is the place where a lot of fraud can and does occur.
We'll wait and see what else is coming down the pike because we KNOW Etheridge will sing like a canary.

VOTE NO FOR STEVE BUSH
We are urging all to vote for Dennis Roudenbush for County Commissioner. With the new State Law in effect, even if Bush won he would have to give his seat up and let a caucus decide who your next Commissioner will really be.
There is a refund from Humana in the amount of $169,000.00. Bush wants to give each County employee $600.00. We say no. This is taxpayers' money and we would like to see this go towards our County budget.
Irv Stumler gave Bush $5,000.00; J.B. Evans gave $500 and Bush also has Darrell Mills (of all people) supporting him. JUST VOTE NOOOO.
Perline (Pearline?) was head of Human Resources for the City has been terminated and Kaye Garry's daughter is now also head of Human Resources and Controller. Kaye has ended up working for the Police Department.
For the Human Rights Commission, I understand Diane Baylor (Roger's wife) has been appointed to this Board. Is that correct? Hmmppffhh. Is her tolerance level equal to her husband's? What a strange pick.

"WE" DON'T THINK SO....
Blah - enough is enough. Unfortunately for some of us, this blog seems to get hijacked by people who want to use it as a means to propel their hate filled messages against gays, blacks, and anyone or anything else who disagrees with their thought process.
Here's something for your thought process:
The Republicans have introduced:
46 Bills on abortion
113 Bills on religion
73 Bills on family relationships
36 Bills on marriage
72 Bills on firearms
604 Bills on taxation
467 Bills on government investigation
And Blocked the American Jobs Act.
