PennDOT and 311: Trying to be a good citizen is a waste of time
My dear lord. This morning, Ledcat and I saw a giant dump truck dump a load of sand into the PennDOT owned field behind our house (you'll recall that field). It dumped and scurried. We saw the truck. Now, PennDOT has had some subcontractors using the property so I decided to call them first to […]
My Facebook “Friends” Continue to Dump Me Over My Logo

Melissa Hart is now my friend
On Facebook. I love Facebook and have over 140 friends. I found Melissa Hart's page through a former LDI classmate, Monica Douglas, who is currently the Executive Director of the Republican Party of Allegheny County. It will be interesting to see what this new friendship means. I'm also friends with DeSantis and Mark (of course). Peduto […]
