DC Tom Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Perhaps seeing it in black and white will spark a bit of self reflection in Gator. The odds are slim but the payoff could mean a welcome respite from his asshatting for at least a few weeks until he takes another puck to the (empty) head. If not, it serves as a cheat sheet for any drop-by-lurkers that may be unfamiliar with his work. If my abuse never sparked any self-reflection, what makes you think yours will?

3rdnlng Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Yep. I used to visit NJ often for work. I liked to stay in Hightstown, not only for it being central for me but there is a wonderful restaurant in what was once the Days Inn coffee shop. Local girl married a Greek cruise ship chef and he settled down there. I stayed across the street in the Ramada though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanker Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Yes. Basil's Legends Lamb Chop House. We haven't eaten there in quite awhile, since they did a complete make-over of the place and changed the name, to Legends Grille. But your post made me look them up and it seems like it's the same family that runs it now. Will have to go again soon. The lamb chops were great and the grilled octopus... outstanding!

B-Man Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) Anyone surprised ? She lost in Michigan, so ........................ http://www.detroitnews.com/story/opinion/columnists/nolan-finley/2016/04/19/clinton-gone-flint-forgotten/83266508/ Clinton is gone, and Flint forgotten Flint Mayor Karen Weaver is learning a tough lesson about the political spotlight — it switches off quickly once you no longer serve its purpose. The mayor came into office in January solely focused on solving her city’s water contamination crisis. She worked closely at first with Gov. Rick Snyder and stayed away from the partisan gamesmanship. But then the presidential primary campaign came to Michigan and Weaver was co-opted by Hillary Clinton’s camp. She was a hot commodity for a while, feted by Clinton and making joint appearances with her. Weaver played nicely into Clinton’s attempt to cast herself as Flint’s savior. Clinton even cut a national commercial that claimed once she found out what was going on in Flint and gave Washington the what-for, federal funds began flowing to the city. And then the campaign moved on. With New York and other states on her mind, Clinton forgot about Flint and Weaver. The mayor is fretting the fading of the intense national attention the city received in February and March will hurt Flint’s chances of capturing those federal funds Clinton boasted of delivering but that still haven’t arrived. Now she’s back where she started, with Snyder as Flint’s best hope. The mayor and governor did a joint appearance last Friday decrying the slowness of the federal response. Weaver does have one more shot. Clinton is coming to Detroit in May to headline the NAACP’s Freedom Fund dinner. She’ll need a talking point, and she may find it useful to dust off Flint and Weaver for the night. Added: And I know..........the most important thing to take away from this article is NOT what a horrible, self-serving disaster of a president that Hillary will undoubtedly be, but the standard..........."they're just campaign promises", "everyone does it" THATS whats important..... .

B-Man Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 3 Gov’t Workers Formally Charged in Flint Water Crisis The #FlintWaterCrisis, which we have been following closely, has formally become a criminal case. Three government employees are now facing serious charges for their alleged involvement in perpetuating conditions that led to the elevated levels of lead in the public water supply. (more…) Good.

IDBillzFan Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Anyone surprised ? She lost in Michigan, so ........................ yeah, I think anyone paying attention knows Hilllary cared about the problem in Flint like she cares about protecting women who become victims of sexual abuse by their male bosses.

Deranged Rhino Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Man, this one smells super fishy: Foreman of the Flint Water Plant found dead: http://www.mlive.com/news/flint/index.ssf/2016/04/treatment_plant_foreman_dies_a.html And, three days later, Woman leading lawsuit against Flint slain: http://www.mlive.com/news/flint/index.ssf/2016/04/woman_in_bellwether_flint_wate.html But don't ask questions... nothing to see here.
