So, I'm watching the Mon. nite circus, Mayor LarryBoy and his silly council, and the topic of putting the 3/4% sales tax on the November ballot, and how it might hurt the school board request to EXTEND an existing tax rate, and Larryboy is like, "we all want good neighborhood schools, but we can't get to them on crappy neighborhood roads," and I'm like, "shouldn't the city be MORE concerned about roads, and LarryBoy is like, " blah, blah, blah,...whitewater raft park........" and I'm like , "isn't that why we pay taxes to the PARK district-TO TAKE CARE OF PARKS!!!!!!!!!!" and I'm like, "why do we have a mayor that can't get the roads fixed but he's ready to fix the schools and parks?????????" Where, O, Where is he gonna stick his nose next????????
