Geez Mayor, did you have to open the Salt Shed sewers last night of all nights?

Hey Gov, do you want the phone number of the really good barber I use.

This is for the cameras. But the answer is still no.

Your people talked to my people. What don’t you understand about the word “no”? The “N” or the “O”?

Comment by Huh? Wednesday, Aug 21, 24 @ 3:48 pm
You represent 3 million people. I represent 12 million people. My number is bigger than yours. The answer is still no.

===…did you have to open the Salt Shed sewers last night?===

I wasn’t at the salt shed, but I live in close proximity to the north branch and it was eapecaily fragrant last night. I’m well north of there, but if the smell was as bad there as it was here, that’s going to be memorable for those who attended. Not Dave Matthews memorable, but close enough.

PU.
