word of mouth

I have been communicating with aliens!

The aliens are very hospitable aliens. They have said that they will feed and house me while I am there but I just need to provide transportation to and from there. Quantiverse is like a bajillion kajillion miles away so I am asking that the City of Lorain pick up my tab for my space shuttle trip of $2,368,432.23 for my ticket, and I will pick up the tab for my wife to accompany me on this trip from the money that I have saved up by feeding my kids dog food instead of real food.

A Russian Perspective on America

I wanted to share this article being disseminated to the Russian people, I think getting a global perspective of how the world views us is helpful in making sure we see views other than our TV news which paint a very different picture of America.

February 3rd
“We’re happy that they’re going forward with the renewal on the May ballot,” Krasienko said. “We feel confident going in May, but we’ve got a big message to get out there. We’ve got to make sure people know that it’s a renewal, that it’s not an increase, and where we are financially and [...]

Bidding Ado to Mid-City Lorain (in Song)

I am moving from my West 17th Street home today. Nearly 4 years and I have experienced quite a bit. It seems only fitting that I moved here during a rash of shootings. (Shooting is Lorain’s fifth in as many days). Now, I move away during our current series of gun-play. I have compiled some [...]

Mom, Scott won’t keep touching me!

Summer is here, and the kids are starting to get a little bored with some of the summer activities, and with the temperatures rising, they need stuff to do. Don’t forget that Mom and Dad need some time out on their own also, so here is the WOM Summer Activity Guide.

GREAT MOMENTS IN UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE

Another case of Canada – which provides “universal” health care — not being able to provide actual health care:
A critically ill Hamilton preemie turned away from McMaster Children’s Hospital is all alone in a Buffalo intensive care unit because her parents don’t have passports to get across the border.
Hamilton’s neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) was full when [...]

Good thing the State of Ohio told ya you didn’t have to move here because the city was just gettin ready to start enforcing it!!!! NOT!!!!!

The newspaper story stated

City employees not required to reside within Lorain anymore

I thought maybe we should read into this…

Definition of Ironic

Poignantly contrary to what was expected or intended:

madness, an ironic fate for such a clear thinker.

BETTY SUTTON AND HOUSE DEMOCRATS VOTE FOR ECONOMIC SUICIDE

Yesterday, the House of Representatives held a vote on and passed the Waxman-Markey carbon cap-and-tax plan 219-212.  As you know, this is a massive $2 trillion energy tax that will raise the cost of every thing produced or service provided in the United States.
Cap-and-tax will cost American households $3,000 per year — electricity prices will ”skyrocket” by [...]

Open Letter To The Mayor

I beg that you implement a NO EXCUSE – ZERO TOLERANCE for the use of fireworks this summer.

One striking thing about Michael Jackson, at least to me, was what an amazing dancer he was. I had forgotten that over the years. His death, however, brought that to the forefront for me.
Somewhat (yet delicately tangentially) related, is the discussion we have been having re: Lorain’s identity. It’s a very valid [...]

15 REASONS WHY CAP-AND-TAX IS A HORRIBLE IDEA

My reaction to this is:  Only 15?  Though, I suppose they had to stop some where:

National Energy Tax: This is a tax that will affect constituents in every aspect of their lives. From transportation, to food, to electricity, to income – this is the ultimate regressive consumption tax to the tune of nearly $3,000 per [...]

I know you are, but what am I?

Can anyone name a NEIGHBORHOOD in Lorain and tell everyone what it is?

CONGRESS TO VOTE ON MASSIVE CARBON CAP-AND-TAX PLAN

Nancy Pelosi and Democrats in the House of Representatives are set to vote Friday on the Waxman-Markey carbon cap-and-tax bill.  As I’ve noted previously, this bill is a massive $2 trillion tax increase.  It will increase the costs of any thing in our economy that requires energy — the price of food, clothing, housing, fuel, etc., etc. will [...]

Pot luck for dinner?

How long can Lorain claim to be an international city as each generation passes, a gradual process of assimilation pulls past immigrants children into the American mainstream and that CULTURE IS SLOWLY LOST?

I think the mayor has figured it out!!!!

“We’re continually looking for foreclosures in some of the better neighborhoods to stabilize them so they don’t get picked up by the rental market”
