I'm home, fed the fish and watered the plants and now for another cup of coffee. That will be only my second cup.
...'morning guys...
...supposed to get 103 or so here today...
...since I sold my Congos there's something missing in the tank...gotta figure out what to get...I have 25+ Cardinal Tetras and 10 Porkchop Rasboras...the rasboras don't really show up...maybe about 30 more Cardinals...???
...going to the town council meeting tonight...we've had an on-going battle with the building and inspection dept with set-backs in our park since last summer,,,they won't issue permits and are breaking the ordinances from years back that gave us our special zoning exceptions...then last year they got in this new wacko engineer as head of that department and he's nullifying all that stuff...well, we aren't having any of that crap...so once we got the town council aware of what's happening and the rude treatment our owners have had from the department, council members started paying attention to us....especially since we helped in a big way with our votes to get 2 new candidates elected to the board to take office in Dec and one incumbent knocked off of it...we're getting a lot of attention now and the mayor is telling us that things should go our way tonight....and they want to have a "work session" with the council and our board here later this month....I think they are trying to make amends and be able to say, "Look what we did for you!", prior to the new council members being installed...Then when the next vote comes in 2 years they think the incumbents will get our votes...hmmmm...we'll see... ;)
...so when a bunch of organized grey haired old farts set their minds to it you can fight city hall...and we're looking for the win...!
