“Your Tax Dollars At Work”
Ups and downs
You may remember a while back when an Atlantan name of Everett Tripodis had his house town down by the city – erroneously VG Article due to a similarity in addresses (Lawton Avenue vs, Lawton Street). The city had the gall to SUE Mr. Tripodis for the demolition costs. Well, it just keeps getting […]
Fox News Friday: Biden, Homeless, Tree, and one helluva prostate massage
When the government contracts out big projects, one of the requirements is that developers pay development fees. Federal statute mandates that developers pay that fee prior to construction on their lease, a potentially hefty fee designed to guarantee federal property is returned to its original state after a lessee departs its lease.

But yes, let’s […]
Crappy Tuesday posts

More Friday follies…on Saturday
I am starting to believe in Heinlein’s “Crazy Years.” So much stupidity and oddness, so few columns… Let’s start with our esteemed Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken.

Good news story from Illinois
