ABOUT ME: Nothing really qualifies me for anything, but with the way everyone is expressing their thoughts and stuff, I thought I would throw in a few of my own.  I am a 58 year old, somewhat conservative(some would say "extremely conservative"), IT administrator living in Gahanna Ohio.  Not really much interesting about me other than I have managed to live for 58 years.  Been married for 35 of them, I have a wonderful family and I love my life.  Hope you enjoy the site.  You can always let me know by sending feedback to the editor at the bottom of this page.



What Are They Thinking?

        Columbus Mayor Coleman has really been on top of things. The economy, of course, is tanking, so he approached some of the city's unions to ask for concessions. Basically, a sound idea. He sold it to the fire department. Underpaid already, they accepted that there would be no raise in 2009. Effectively, they took a pay cut to serve us. I don't know if I can possibly put into words the selflessness of these men and women.
      Thank you
      Then mister Coleman took the same proposal to our men in blue. Asking them to give up their raise. Unfortunately, he must have forgotten that these public servants gave up 2008 already. I'm sure there has to be other places to trim other than those willing to give thier lives for us. WAKE UP Mr. Coleman.




More to come.
