From the "ain't gonna happen, but I don't blame 'em for trying" department - Online headline: "Armed with new power, Democrats push for stricter U.S. gun laws" -- Not on the National level anyway.. There may be some more "new laws" in uber-lib states (don't blame them there as many of the uber-leftists worry about some of the more saner leftist worried about their own 2020 re-elections), Nationally, even the US House cannot overrule a veto.
Dems.. they still haven't figured out the that if they could outlaw guns, only outlaws will have guns.... at least I hope they are concerned about that...

As the scenes of Pebble Beach faded away into the pre-Grammy show on CBS, my bride and I watched the Red Carpet pre-Grammy show...I believe Comic Con costumery will pale to what was being worn at the Grammys. I also wonder if Barnum&Bailey's bought some of those outfits for the clowns? How about PHIL! He's leading by 3 with 3 holes to be played today!

From the "semantics" department - Online headline/story: "Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: 'The GOP is so intellectually bankrupt' * Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has blasted the GOP for being “intellectually bankrupt” after unsubstantiated rumors were spread online about her finances. * This stuff is really sad. The GOP is so intellectually bankrupt that they no longer engage to debate issues in good faith, but instead seek to lie, distort, name-call, target, & destroy people/communities w any means possible. It’s a virus and a race to the bottom.” * She had previously retweeted a post from controversial figure John LeFevre who wrote: “@aoc has a 430 credit score, two evictions, and an empty résumé. Just two months ago, she couldn’t afford an apartment in DC. Now, the Democratic leadership has put her on the Financial Services Committee & the media is saying that her Green New Deal will ‘reshape’ the economy.” -- I was going to say that Ocasio-Cortez was just mincing words, because Democrats are morally bankrupt and intelligence challenged when it comes to governance, but Ocasio-Cortez makes a good stab at also cementing Democrats at "intellectually bankrupt" as well.. John LeFevre is something.. but a GOP politician is not one of them.

Hey taxpayers.. there are no such thing as "tax refunds".. when you get a check BACK from the IRS, it's because IRS is sending you back YOUR money you stupidly sent them during the year that the government used without paying you ANY interest! Getting smaller refunds is something you should be THANKING TRUMP about!

Veterans Parkway Eyesore of the Week: 1928 Veterans - Parcel ID 06 016 014
This is a jewel.. it's owned by a person from Akron Ohio.. and until 2015, paid less than $2.00 in property taxes Someone from the City obviously took a look at it in 2015 and did up the tax to almost $125.00 then upped it again in 2017 to a shade over $500.00.. then last year to $564.00 (which has not been paid!) This is a pretty valuable speculative piece of commercial property yet retains its "R3-Residential Lots" rating...
Two pics: one from 2015 and one from 2019

Notes from the "River Road Roundabout" - Our pixie decorators haven't missed a beat.. Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years Day, and now Valentine's Day decor adorns the port-a-pottie.. I guess you really have to "feel the love" to go in there late in the day. Hopefully, traffic engineers can now see first hand how the effect of having a sweeping uphill right turn followed by a left swerve and another right swerve by a logging truck traveling south on River Road is not going to fare well.

Looks like Governor Cuomo has even more revenue issues to be concerned about than he thought.. Changes in the Federal tax code presented by the Trump tax cuts have revealed how NY's tax breaks for wealthy property holders are no longer available and wealthy New Yorkers are moving to lower taxing states..and now, Amazon has stepped back for another look at it's new plans to build another HQ building there which would bring 25,000 new jobs to NY. Bezos might want to take another look at Amazon's plans in Virginia, too.

There was a shooting death at Castlegate Apartments here in Columbus..it is listed as 3700 Bridgewater Road (intersects with Southlea) yet there's no information in the tax database for that address... with all the money ex-mayor Tom-LYING-son spent on new tax database software, it should be easy to find.. It's rather weird since the person killed owns other properties yet had the tax bills on those sent to him at 3700 Bridgewater. Where can I get the Parcel ID number for these apartments? Update: Property owned by Atlanta firm.

It wasn't Chief Justice John Robert's vote on the Louisiana abortion bill itself that threw me, but the fact that Ruth Ginsburg voted at all. How do the rules of the U S Supreme Court allow non-participating Justices to vote? I mean, reading reports of court interchanges may inform you of the details, but reading reports does not mean you understood the issues as presented. I do want to ask why any of the judges voted against the Louisiana law.. all along, one of the main issues of abortion advocates concerns women's health, yet, the US Supreme Court judges just ruled that women who might need hospital care because of n abortion related complication may not be able to get admitted to a hospital in a timely matter.

Now.. even with John Robert's vote, had Ginsburg not voted, the overall vote would have been 4-4, and, basically, thrown back into the hands of the states where it should have been.

Looking at the "plans" for the proposed development in Midland, I see huge access and traffic issues. From the south, the only easy access will be driving north to the J R Allen Parkway so you can take right-turn exits into the complex.. but if come from the east or drivers from the south try to access it from the eastern side, left turns across the divided highway will become a nightmare.. New overhead access ramps/bridges will have to become a priority, and unless the ramps have very extended length, cars will be backed up into the west bound Parkway lanes.

M/C L-E story: "The National Enquirer’s alleged attempt to blackmail Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos with intimate photos could get the tabloid’s parent company and top editors in deep legal trouble and reopen them to prosecution for paying hush money to a Playboy model who claimed she had an affair with Donald Trump." -- "Blackmail"? That's certainly in the eye-of-the-beholder, but another way of looking at it was that the National Enquirer was doing Bezos a favor by not just printing those pictures unannounced. The sad thing is if Bezos had such pictures of President Trump, he would not have hesitated in running them. The National Enquirer should be praised for not doing what Bezos would have done without remorse.

Columbus Council Agenda: "Purchases: Traffic Incident Management Services (Annual Contract)" -- Hmm.. how about giving us a report from said vendor about the accident ex-Mayor Tom-LYING-son had before renewing this contract...
Columbus Council MUSCOGEE COUNTY JAIL SHOWER REPAIRS: "There are 36 showers located in the south tower which was constructed in 2003. * Showers are constructed of tile walls and floors with no waterproofing membrane." -- You know.. for shower construction done just 15 years ago,, surely there was "code" for waterproofing.. how was this given a certificate of occupancy? And for public safety. who was the 2003 contractor?

There's a list of the 50 worst action movies.. don't waste your time.. the absolute worst.."Ishtar" didn't make it so it's not a well researched list.

Another more telling list featured the 50 States' "foreclosure" rankings.. The worst 5 were NJ, DE, MD, FL and IL (1st-5th)NY was 13th but with the new tax laws, NY should be in the worst 5 next year,, also MA was the 15th worst.. I mention these because of where most of the Democrat presidential wannabees live. Painfully, GA slipped in as the 14th worst, but seeing how Columbus floundered under ex-mayor Tom-LYING-son, and then there's Stacey Abrams, who the GA Dems are putting all their hope in future, so we must be diligent in getting more conservative voters out on 2020!

And still another list.. this time, the worst states for burglaries. GA .. no earnest surprise here, is overall 14th worst per 100,000 people, but.. and a BIG but at that, GA had the 6th HIGHEST rate of burglaries in the country.. And it's inflated by Columbus' floundering economy and education rankings.. combined with it's political allegiance with Democrats ( it's no surprise when the Chair of the School Board, the Minority Whip in the GA Legislature, and Columbus' City Manager all share one family name...

Online story: "California Gov. Gavin Newsom will announce plans Monday to pull back all members of the National Guard who have been deployed to the border with Mexico, saying the state would not be part of the Trump administration's "manufactured crisis." -- Good grief.. whatta doofus.. It's as simple as this nephew of Queen PeLOUSY was having a tough time 'splaining his use of CA National Guardsmen being deployed at the border of a Sanctuary State.. Now, since Trump is SENDING 3,700 troops to the border, I hope he sends some Corp of Engineers to California to remove the fences at Tijuana and transplant them to place that are being overrun elsewhere.

M/C L-E story: "The Financial Efficiency Star Rating for the Muscogee County School District remained at 3.5 stars on a 5-star scale in the Georgia Department of Education’s annual release of the statewide results." -- Parsing this ranking into actual numbers is east.. 20% for each star.. so 3.5 star's are a 70%.. a "D-" in any rating system... Now.. particulars.. only 9 of 32 Elementary schools scored 3.5 Stars or better, and only 4 of 12 Middle Schools did , and while 7 of 9 High Schools showed average or better scores it brings us to a startling reality.. Dr Lewis has been on the job for 5 complete years so Elementary school rating are the only one purely reflected by his programs and leadership.. and the Elementary school score are considerably worse that the overall scores. The Middle Schools also reflect poor elementary school foundation. What was it that Pogo said to Porkypine..."We have met the enemy and he is us."
