Now THAT was funny, Lester! In Logan we have the guy who used to run the bakery as Mayor, so it could be worse. And our AM board op is on City Council.
Titties and beer...thank God almighty for titties and beer!

That would solve a tremendous amount of issues with the local townships in this corner of PA.Lester wrote:City Council meetings to now be voicetracked?
I know a few large bakery owners that would do well in government and balancing tight budgets. But they really like using Mexicans as cheap labor and that does not go over well in government operations.daveinthemorning wrote:In Logan we have the guy who used to run the bakery as Mayor, so it could be worse.
