So help me, this guy is worse than a third grader when it comes to who gets to play with him and his toys. The old manand band of thieves wereup Piccolino's ass to get his bald-ass kisser in the paper. He climbed all over Rinaldi to have his name associated with a prominent local business. And now, he refers to these two guys as thePizza Man and the Crybaby because they wouldn't play HIS game HIS WAY.
I think the only ONLY O-N-L-Y reason some people continue to associate themselves with the likes of this asswipe is they are afraid he'll let slip some incriminating little tidbits of information he either has on them, or they have supplied to his "cause".
Oh sure, he'll dish out the oddbutt-smooch and cooch-rub when it's necessary, but don't take your eyes off him for a second or (heaven forbid) disagree with him. He'll throw you under the bus faster than granma can spell 'opion'.
I was just over there and read that same post ... Paul I didn't see where they were selling their home ... however he did say that it may be time to "abandonship" but I don't think the fine citizens of Scranton are that lucky.
One can only hope that they will jump ship! I just hope that the next ship he boards will not allow him to be the captain ... I am hopeful that the next town he moves to will not allow him to be so self-important. And if and when he moves out of Lackawanna County ... I am truly hopeful the judges of the next county will not allow him to continue filing frivilous lawsuits wasting the courts valuable time and the taxpayers valuable dollars.
I am sure he knows that the Gatelli lawsuit is coming right back to bite him in the ass and he wants out before he is shown for the idiot he is ... and that his only objective in life is to retard the function of government under the guise of free speech. His website is loaded with threats preceived and real ... they think it's funny to stalk city officials ... they love the violent avatars ... and the crazy membernames ... they continually defame the families of city officials ... he thinks it is his right to say whatever he wants about whomever he wants.
He claims he is not responsible for what his posters write ... yet on his website he made it clear that anything posted is his and only his responsibility ... so why that change of heart Joey ... is it because you are afraid that Judy will counter file against you! Sue you for what you have done to her daughters ... her grandchildren ... tried to put an end to her husband's political career as you and your little cult bandy about unfounded rumors ... How sad your life must be Joe to be filled with such rage and hate. I am hopeful that one day in your lifetime that you will find peace, tranquillity ... and the ability to love and forgive your fellow man, and most of all the ability to mind your own damn business ... stop the rumors. It will then be an amazing life for you.
Look at the Chick's Diner situation ... now tell me if I am wrong ...but had he not put it up on his site that Judy gave them a pass on the smoking ban if they voted for her husband (rumors and not true) ... would they have been fined?
Now I'm not saying that this was done in retaliation ... what I am saying is this ... Joe Pilchesky brought the attention to Chick's Diner ... he is the one who let the world know that they had removed the signs, put the ashtrays back out and basically thumbed their noses at the smoking ban ... now if I'm the owners of Chick's or any other establishment in the City of Scranton ... am I going to align myself with Joe Pilchesky ... I do not think so I am smarter than that ... and well I'm sure that they are also ...
These business are trying to make money Joe ... you thought this would force them to join up with you ... How very wrong you were... Now they want absolutely nothing to do with you.
We nowknow exactly what you are (although some of us have always known) ... you claim to be on their side to be their champion ... the man who will fight the fight for them ... yet you are the one who brought this upon them ... they don't need the likes of you costing them more money by being a infomer, because that's what you were in this situation ... and I think that this is the exact outcome you wanted ... trying, like I have stated to force them to join you ... maybe you should think about writing that check for $600.00 ($300.00 each owner). Just a thought Joe and my opinion!
No sympathy for Chick's or any business losing its ass
No sympathy for Chick's or any business losing its ass It was made known immediately throughout the area that the smoking ban was illegal and unconstitutional. There were reports in the paper about duplicate smoking bans that were quickly rejected by Allegheny County and Erie courts. I filed a lawsuit against the city immediately and asked no less than 35 businesses to jump in on it and couldn't get a bite, to inlcude the pizza guy running for council who was afraid of his own shadow. For as much as Rinaldi at Whistles cried the blues, I couldn't get a return call from him. This is Scranton, where men are women and women are angry over it. It's no shock across the state that the ban is still alive and kicking here, this City has a statewide reputation for being spineless and backward, allowing politicians to do everything except take your first born. Chick's, and other businesses, deserve what they get for sitting on their asses for so long when a 10 minute consultation with any lawyer six months ago, and less than a grand, would have prevented this nonsense. City of Scranton: NO MEN IN IT. When a sissy like Chris Doherty can successfully rape a city of 70,000, maybe it is time to abandon ship, as many residents are. If you plan on staying, you better plan on fighting, because this is a city in a world of trouble. It'll get worse if McGoff retains that council seat and more cronies are elected to the SSB. McGoff and Popil have to bite the dust on May 15. See to it that they do by getting everyone you know out to vote. Popil is a Fanucci in a jock strap, that simple. We already know McGoff is a crony whore. Wake up kids, the noises in your attic aren't ghosts, it's Doherty looking to see if you have anything left worth taking.
Sorry for rambling and I hope that this post makes sense! I'm not quite sure as I have am not feeling quite myself today and am having great difficulty concentrating!

He didn't come right out and say it, but the second paragraph of his post showed a quitter's mentality. He showed he was ready to give up. He tried to portray such a tough lone wolf on-line persona, but he showed that when the going gets tough, the tough curl up into fetal position and whine about how hard it is to fly solo. For someone who has "thousands of" (read: a dozen) supporters, he sure did crumble pretty quickly.
Not to worry, Joe. Bipolar disease has it's peaks and valleys. Stick to the meds and you'll be back to your usual raving lunatic self in a day or so.
Good thing no one copy/pasted that post of yours, just to throw it back up in your face after you delete it....
I wonder who'll pick up the banner when the old man is reduced to a drooling, spoon fed, tapioca eating, silently muttering, pajama wearing vegetable at the Home for Deflated Egos...
Who's going to have any credibility left as a result of their affiliation to him?
The obvious: Joe is not going anywhere. What he wants is for his sheep to beg him to stay and continue the fight against the evil ICN empire. After a few rounds of "please Joe, don't go," he'll reluctantly agree to stay - but only if the city can produce more "men." In short time he'll decide there are no men.
The pathetic: Joe is looking for a way out. He knows he went too far with the Harhut thing and rather than be publicly humiliated by getting another legal ass whipping in court, he'll use this as an excuse to focus his attention elsewhere, maybe on his boat, cars, family, Key West, etc. Then he can say he quit while he was still "champ."
The insane: Why would anyone side with a guy who has never won a lawsuit on any level in any court? He's right, for $1000.00 a business owner could fight the lawsuit - some probably are moving toward that, but why would anyone involve him? Who the hell is he? If you want bad PR leading up to your eventual defeat in court, Joe is your man. If you want to win your case you hire a real lawyer. If you want good PR, you stay away from his website.
I think Joe might just be a closeted homosexual looking to come out. Think about it, it all adds up. He's fascinated with the public lives of certain men of power (frequently calling them or identifying them as being gay--hoping against hope, I suppose). He files his lawsuits in oder to put himself into close proximity of one of the judges who supposedly set off his gaydar. He's constantly posting his home address and phone number, his gym schedule, etc. He aligns himself with Janet Evans ("she" kind of dresses like a post-op transsexual). He's been going to Harrisburg a lot (a quick google search shows that there are, in fact, gay bars in the Capitol). His lament that there are no men in Scranton might be more about his unsuccessful quest for homosexual companionship in the region than it is about the willingness of some quite possibly heterosexual business owners refusing to join him in the hot tub of political activism.
Paul you may just be on to something there ... they do say it takes on to know one ... don't they?

Combine that all with the fact that he's had a boner for Dohert for years now, and it's clear that's what all this is about. He's just gay, and is finally beginning to come to terms with it.
What he's doing, or trying to do, must be a very difficult thing to do. Making his coming out in such a public forum has got to be adding to the stress.
I'm sure I must know a gay person or two, I'm not sure. I've never asked, and they've never told. Frankly, it makes no difference to me either way. But I do know that I've never been witness to a coming out, the likes of which Joe is inviting us all to be a part of. It's quite fascinating, and a lot more "hey look at me" than I expected, though.
Awwwwww, the serial-plaintiff is upset that no one will match him in the courtroom psychosis for psychosis? Well guess what...the concept is called Self-Preservation. No one joined him on the smoking lawsuit because he is a f%$#king looser in the courtroom who thinks that he can simply bully his way to a ruling in his favor.

I'm gonna ask, why would someone include Mr. Pilchesky in their lawsuit? Wouldn't this involve money and how did this cost Mr. Pilchesky? I mean other than his lawsuit which he choose to file when it did not concern him?

They will ALL try to be the leader to some extent, and will chew at each other until there's nothing left. They'll be all over each other like the rabid dogs they are. You might have one or two level heads, but most of them are simply mice following the big cheese. Get rid of the cheese and the mice will die out - or move out.
Hmmm, I wonder if they'll have to move to a place where they have the permission to install a wheelchair ramp so the decrepit old goat can still get out and about.
