New Toys Arriving Daily

Posted on 6:02 AM by Unknown





WOW - Zak Greinke out for the year!  Broken shoulder after a fight in LA.  There goes a good portion of $147 million.
-----------------------------------

Another 0.38 inches of drizzle yesterday.  Have we now had 48 hours of drizzle?

-----------------------------------

Last word on the election (as I move into a different phase) . . maybe

I'm finding more out on why I lost the election.  Seems there was a pretty big effort to NOT let Melotte into the City Council by the TIPC people that try to run the city.  Funny thing is they were more worried about Bomcamp then the former Mayor as they left him out to dry by concentrating on me (I feel somewhat honored)!  Talk about dropping the ball AND shooting yourself in the foot at the same time.  Mayor Bob was a work-a-holic and a nice guy and they did not seem to care (or were just inept).

It was interesting - I talked to a number of older people that said they were voting for me and excited, then a week later I met them at the Columbus Agridinner and I could tell that someone had gotten to them and told them how to vote as there was a weird vibe. BTW - only Paula Schumann, Bob Link and I were there, no other aldermen were at the dinner.  

It's a sad state of affairs when a group will secretly try to run a city.   This is why I loath politics! It's no longer about candidates, it's about special interest groups with their own agenda. 
-----------------------------------------------------    
 
Every day new toys are arriving at THE GATEWAY!   Pretty exciting - I love this stuff.



I continue to take shots of the farmland where Enerpac will be located. It's important to capture the past. 


Have a great weekend.
