Hey Homeowners

If you received a letter from the city saying your home has been reassessed and you are angry, please contact your councilmember. They fight reassessments all the time. As the city's methodology for reassessment is balls stupid it is really easy to make a convincing case.

that is all

heidi writes at 05:32:32 11/29/09 - Comment #53187: Looking forward to it... Are we organizing the potluck to create an actual full meal? I'm happy to make molasses crinkle cookies for (e:jim), or soup, or a veggie main course, or an appetizer...

I am planning to attend, however, because I MUST be in Bloss on Sunday, 12/20, if it's threatening snow, I'll have to leave sooner. Last year I got caught in that awful snowstorm right before xmas and missed out on my favorite annual event - judging the holiday lights contest: :::link:::

metalpeter writes at 04:18:33 11/28/09 - Comment #53165: I checked the date and I will be at the Sabres/Penguins game so I can't make it. Hope someone brings their camera and takes Pictures. Well or multiple people could. Hope everyone has a great time.

tinypliny writes at 06:50:38 11/18/09 - Comment #52970: That is so generous of you! :) I will badger you when the time comes - unless I change the plan. It has to be pumpkin themed - else those pumpkins would rot!

heidi writes at 06:45:39 11/18/09 - Comment #52969: (e:tinypliny), I have a stock pot you can borrow.

tinypliny writes at 06:24:22 11/18/09 - Comment #52968: I don't have anything that can safely hold 3/4th gallon of Hot soup...

tinypliny writes at 06:23:00 11/18/09 - Comment #52967: Problem is I would have to steal a stock pot too...

tinypliny writes at 06:21:48 11/18/09 - Comment #52966: Hmmm... thinking of stealing one of the pumpkins (smallest one?) on (e:PMT)'s porch and making a ultra-hot soup that would make people cry if they didn't want to. HEHEHEHE

metalpeter writes at 06:10:26 11/17/09 - Comment #52943: I have to double check to make sure I have no tickets for any events that Night, but I think I should be able to make it. I don't really cook so I have to figure out what to bring.

jim writes at 12:17:15 11/17/09 - Comment #52922: yay!

matthew writes at 11:27:57 11/17/09 - Comment #52920: Thanks for setting this up. Oh, and I don't mind if people want to bring their mammoths...as long as they aren't high heel wearing mammoth types.

Obligatory Election Day Post

Hi everyone.

We have had three elections this year:
School Board
Primary
General
And each time I asked you guys for a few votes. So, here are the two I am asking you guys to cast.

1) Captain John Glascott for Sheriff. John, undoubtedly, has the experience necessary to run Erie County. He has run prisons, and even began his career as a corrections officer. The incumbent, Sheriff Tim Howard, is incompetent. He is under several different investigations by state and federal agencies. There have been several escapes from prison in the last month alone. Remember, because Tim Howard can not run a prison, Bucky Philips escaped while unsupervised and killed an officer. Tim Howard refused to let a woman with unpaid parking tickets in the holding center get her cancer medication.

2) Mark Polancarz for Comptroller. Mark has done a brilliant job over the last few years as our Comptroller. While the County Executive is trying to bypass county charter to cut human services, Mark is keeping him accountable. His opponent argues that Mark can't count. That Mark predicted a $10 Million budget shortfall and we ended up with a $10 Million surplus. What a crock. Mark examined the budget, told everyone there would be a shortfall, and the budget was adjusted. That is doing your job and doing it well. The opponent is being funded by Chris Collins to be a rubber stamp. We need Mark to keep him accountable.

If any of you live where there is a County Leg race, don't vote for Michele Iannello. So there, you can't say I never supported a Republican.

Cement

Sometimes this job requires strange tasks.

Right now, I am reading a 100 page report on the cement industry, and steps to make it more green. It is a facinaiting read that totally does not make me want to pound my head against the wall 'till both explode.

That said, I think we have enough votes for the domestic partner resolution. That makes me feel like it is all worth while.

cement.

Boo

There once was a pumpkin
With a curl in his hair
And when he was good
He was very, very good
But when he was bad he was horrid
