Shaking hands and kissing babies....cool Harry

This weekend my doorbell rang in the middle of the afternoon. There in the drizzle, was Harry Lemay. Harry is running for council member in ward three of my area. I guess I now know that I am Ward 3. Anyway, at first I was just gonna tell him thanks...see ya.....The games were on and I was in my favorite position ....horizontal on the couch. However....since all of you are depending on my knowledge of politics, I thought it my duty to cover the local scene.

I give credit to Harry, he was out there in the rain trying to whip up votes. I invited him in and spent 20-30 minutes asking him his views on the local issues.

There are not too many:
Do you want to expand commercial building in Wildwood?.....let's see...I think we need that Target store....I hate driving the THREE miles down the road to the other one. Not only do I want my cheap Chinese underwear....I WANT THEM NOW!!!!!!

Do you want to build a Taj Mahal for a local town hall?
My take is the only time you ever go to the town hall around here is to pay a parking/speeding ticket...go to the pokey, if they have a holding cell there...and lastly to plead with some bureaucrat to let you put that fence 3" closer to the street.....all activities that tend to pee you off. Not sure I want to be more pee'd off by seeing a building that is killing me in taxes.

I didn't agree with Harry on his two positions....but the way he went about it made me think that he would be able to work with the group for the betterment of Wildwood. Harry you have my vote.

I am still wondering what happen to the guys at Cousins Subs in Wisconsin that were reading my blog. You guys still there?
