There was a Mid-Ohio Valley Regional Highway Safety Program conducted on the 21st in Mineral Wells. I hope many of you took advantage of that? The last one for the season will be supposedly on the last Saturday in September (29th), at the Vienna Walmart. If you did not take advantage on the 21st, keep alert for any time/ date changes.
Noted where there have been some pretty major changes at the Daily Blat. A new Advertising Director and Manager. Can't say I ever had any dealings with the Manager, but am quite content with old Director gone if it is whom I think it was? Don't remember seeing any Retirement or Promotion blather so am left with options three and/ or four- Resign or be fired?
Tried a couple of times to do an Ad when I was running in 2016 and she would not give me the time of day. Finally as I usually end up doing, I contacted Mr. Spanner (Publisher), and he was as usual, courteous and professional. Now, just a bit more house cleaning with two or three more of the Management Staff and if still not able to report the Truth in Vienna, may at least be courteous and professional?
But I would not bet on it as the attitude and business model that seems to be pursued in the Blat goes a lot deeper and more poisoned to Vienna's true problems that Mr. Spanner can probably fix? But again, at least a start in my mind?
Noted a few days back on where the local mug wumps from Mr. Justice on down are still big on the $83.7 Billion Gas deal. The Gas deal will go forward. It will as I noted in an earlier posting, the Chinese play the long game that runs into the decades and centuries if need be. Very patient and smooth with those who are as strong or stronger than they. Not as patient or tolerant of those who are not as strong as they are. Just observe the maneuvers going on in the South China Sea. China would have rolled up those South East Asian Nations by now if not for the U.S. And might well still happen but not for a decade or so?
As with the above Gas deal here in West Virginia, they only have to wait about 12 years maximum and then by sheer exhaustion and major stupidity, the Republicans will have lost the White House and one or both Legislative Houses. We are already weary of war(s), deeply divided and pretty much spent in most of our strengths.
And with Mr. Obama and the rest of the treacherous deep State still going strong, we may take a major sea change in no more than eight years at best.
That is impregnated on whether Mr. Trump can control his damn Tweeter Account; keep his zipper zipped and be more attentive to what his Cabinet is or is not doing? 2018 could be the real test on his making it too 2020 or to lose?
In any case, the Chinese are far, far more patient than we are.
It is almost humorous that Mr. Gaunch, head of the State Joint Legislative Committee on Funding should be "uncomfortable" with the recent hiring by Allied Response LLC of one Mr. Tarry, who just resigned from the State Commerce Department over the RISE program issues?
It must be that Mr. Gaunch as a probable long time Legislator in West Virginia has never heard of possible "Quid Pro Quos" that comes up? Allied is a contractor for Thompson Construction and is said to have a $49 Million deal with RISE Project? Believe me, it is not just West Virginia that has strange happenings, but it sure tries for the top of the list?
Again, I feel the need to encourage the State Legislature to look deeper not just into the State Supreme Court, but make up Processes/ Protocols and Law(s) for the County Courts also. The Hearing I was at Friday allowed me to review and research the prior cases that the Defense was accusing me of being frivolous and without merit. I will not say much today, but what I found was very interesting if not as startling as one might expect. Already knew some of what was supposedly going on, but did find some things that smell to high Heaven.
And the need for one to be able to record Court Proceeding's has become very apparent also.
And the continual digging into the Financial and Property shenanigans attributed to Mr. Loughry may be the cause for the 23 charges against him, but think a more thorough review of his and other Justices Decisions on disqualification/ recusals would probably ensnare more if not all five? 'nuff said'.
