WRONG ADDRESS?

Went to the MAYOR'S STATE OF THE CITY address today sponsored by the LYNN COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION. I even applauded and was part of a standing ovation. Now you know how difficult it is for me to do to things at one time. Good thing it wwas only standing and clapping. I never was any good at rubbing my belly and patting my tummy at the same time. Shucks after my accident when I learned to walk again, I had to do it sans gum.

At the end there was the usual Q and A. Of course I Q'd.  You see, I thought the Mayor had the wrong addressandwas lost and I wanted to helpout by steering her back on track I tried to point out some of the stormy fiscal clouds on our horizon, one of which is NET SCHOOL SPENDING and how she SHUT DOWN discussion on it at the last LSC meeting. Well she demonstrated how much smarter she is than me.

First she said she didn't SHUT DOWN the discussion. She is right. I used the wrong word. She never let it start or more specifically LIMITING the discusaion. Roll the videotape.

Then she pointedoutin a very classy way just how confused I was over the CFO conondrumn. With my cataracts I have trouble reading my financial scorecard. Fortucci is NOT the CFO, justthe firer of Pace who was CFO and she NEVER fired Fortucci his term expired. Gotcha or rather you got me. Cause I questioned how she could have confidence  that  he was goning to give her right answers on this NSS mess. That's when she pointed out PETER CARON was the CFO. How stupid was I? I knew that cause of the BROOKLINE BOONDOGGLE and his email that I printed regardingthe political implications that came into play in the purchase. Remember about how that purchase solved a political problem by preventing a potential, possible purchase in case someone ever wanted to put in a place for poor people to habitate. Well, excuse meI made a mistake.I know one of many but you see I have had some serious (is there any other kind?) BRAIN DAMAGE.

Anywho, she confidently told me her own people told her there is no problem. Funny though she didn't say anything about the state saying there is no problem. Oh well IGNORANCE IS BLISS.
