"Off with their heads!"

Free Speech does't require a multi-paragrah disclaimer Mr. Pilchesky.

I found this to be quite humorous yet quite disturbing at the same time ... because it seems that she does not think that she has done anything wrong ... it may not of been intentional (yeah right) but ignorrance is no excuse for breaking the law ... if you think it might be the wrong thing to do ... you probably shouldn't do it. Is this not the same behavior she has accused other (past) council members of ... but since it's her ... well damn the rules and the laws of the land .... Off with their heads if they do not agree with her!

lol Miss Clairol is now saying the UofS said it....not her lol....is she professional or what??!!

It wasn't me mom it was THEMMMMMM ........


Uh?? Missy Jan??....you are on the record dear with what you said...did you forget about that pesky little thing known as the "official record" lol lol

Uh ohhhhh Steve Corbett is kicking Miss Clairol's little butt over this issue today lol lol.

Hummm if he is married she may be able to....change the subject in a manner of speaking...but I am not sure if he is...I don't think she is so good at changing the subject with the single ones... <sigh>what's a blond girl to do?? :)

I have been sitting here thinking and thinking ... and well this is the thought that has occurred to me. Ok even if it were Father Pilarz who offered to $175,000 for the easement and Janet never did ask and then what happened she said nope ... $250,000 will get you that easement ... and he said ... nop ... $175,000 ... and lets say that she accepted it ... then that would be accepting a bribe wouldn't it? Still against the law ... even if that bribe is not going into her pocket ... it's still a bribe to get what they want ... and isn't that what she herself has accused every other politician in this town of doing ... but I guess that she just does not see nor do her loyal little doomers ... but if you take a peek across the hall there are a few who realize that she has made a huge political blunder. And lets not forget she didn't do this alone she had Mr. Loscombe and Atty. Hughes right there with her.

Remember Mr. Loscombe at election time. If he starts out in the first few months of office taking the path to extortion and bribery ... well then at the end of his term what path will he have chosen? It will not be a good one ... 6 months in he is suing the city for the pension that he knew he would not be able to collect while on council and now this ... what is next for this council superstar?

Now come on IHave you don't think she would make a good Mayor ... and you really think she sucks at what she is doing now ... you know what I knew she would suck ... and I knew she would suck really bad ... my expectations have been met. I am sure that she would meet my expectations of her as the Mayor as well ... because I know she will suck more than any other Mayor has ever sucked. And when I say that I don't mean her activities ... I am simply using it as slang. I won't go any further with that ... because it would be oh so DD of me.

Every time I channel surf and get near channel 19, I break out into a cold sweat. The chills just wrack my body and my thumb quivers over the " ^ " button. This time I stopped @ 19, I listened for a few minutes, and I laughed when I realized what kind of a performance she was putting on for the masses.

Judy Gatelli and Bob McGoff always spoke from the heart, maybe with a note or two for guidance, but spoke TO the people in the audience. And they said what they had to say (usually) in 500 words or less. Miss Clairol read from her pages, gestured with her hands when the script told her to, looked up occasionally and spoke AT whoever she thought might be listening ... all the while saying nothing with a bunch of five dollar words.

All she did was read a written word and point a finger. It's all she's ever done.

And I have to ask ... Janet, when you went to the beauty parlor this week, did you take the "Archbald Pothole" cartoon from The Times and tell the hairdresser, "Make me look like this" ? Or were you sporting a wig from the Tammy Faye Bakker collection? Sheesh, no wonder I couldn't find any Aqua net on the shelves.

Whats this??? If the below referenced post which was up at DD had the name of Doherty in it the goons would be all over it! It has the name Tomko though!!  Do we know anyone with that name I ask you???

Actually if anyone remembers, three county judges sued the Scranton Times Tribune for defamation and each won $150,000, for a false editorial. Perhaps Janet Evans can put the coup` de grace on these editors and file a similar suit.

TOUCHE!!!

Facts surrounding university's contribution seem quite clear

Hold on here ... did a DD poster actually make some sense of the matter?

Well cudos are in order, and the plan is a pretty good one with reference to the institutions of higher learning. However, I don't agree with additional hospital fees payable by patients. Primarily the patients are (a) local people who are already burdened by our high r/e taxes, (2) access card carriers who won't pay a cent anyway, (3) someone who has played by the rules and pays for health insurance, but STILL has to make $2000+ annual deductible payments (on top of their local taxes).

Can I ask what might seem to be a stupid question? Back when the Steamtown Mall was built, there was big to-do about a surcharge, payable to some municipal entity or other, for each space in the parking garage. This resulted in the mall not being able to charge people to park there. Good for me, bad for the mall. The hospitals can and do charge for parking. Are the hospital garages affected by this per space surcharge, or does that fall under their exemption? Is the city making any money off their garages in per space fees, even if it is not making any money for real estate taxes?

I should have made it clear that I also do not agree with the hospital patients being charged another penny for hospital stays. I highlighted in red the part that I did agree with and that was the service fee for students attending institutions of higher learning in Scranton ... I do like the parking fee idea though ...

I was highly impressed that one of the dd posters actually came up with a solution ... this rarely if ever happens across the hall..

I have got to start listening to this guy ... I don't think that I have ever listened to his show.

Both Sr. and Jr. were on defending the Queen's honor at the council meeting.
