Salisbury Police Department Pulls A Dee, Dee, Deeee Tonight!

A short while ago a Salisbury Police Officer pulled over a guy riding his bicycle, (during the day time). He searched the individual and found NOTHING on him. When the individual asked why he was being treated like this the SPD wrote him a WARNING for NOT having a BELL on his bicycle.

Look guys, this BULLSHIT has got to STOP! There is REAL CRIME in this City and wasting your time writing tickets for not having a bell on your bicycle has got to be the biggest crock of shit I have seen in a very long time.

Tomorrow I will provide the actual ticket/warning this gentleman was given. Please don't make me have to write another Post like this guys, PLEASE?

Ron Paul Flies Over Salisbury


Well, Kinda! This Blimp was spotted over Salisbury this afternoon and I was able to get a shot of it from a distance.

USS New York


It was built with 24 tons of scrap steel from the World Trade Center.

It is the fifth in a new class of warship - designed for missions that include special operations against terrorists. It will carry a crew of 360 sailors and 700 combat-ready Marines to be delivered ashore by helicopters and assault craft.

Steel from the World Trade Center was melted down in a foundry in Amite, LA to cast the ship's bow section. When it was poured into the molds on Sept. 9, 2003, "those big rough steelworkers treated it with total reverence," recalled Navy Capt. Kevin Wensing, who was there. "It was a spiritual moment for everybody there."

Junior Chavers, foundry operations manager, said that when the trade center steel first arrived, he touched it with his hand and the "hair on my neck stood up." "It had a big meaning to it for all of us," he said. "They knocked us down. They can't keep us down. We're going to be back."

The ship's motto? "Never Forget"

This was not snooped.

AUDIT, WHAT AUDIT?


Ladies & Gentlemen, Louise Smith told everyone LIVE on PAC14 that she had taken the Mayor to the Wood Shed and had it out with her over the Audit and it was to be delivered by the 17th. The Council was then told that bound copies would not be available till TODAY at Noon!

The AUDIT is NOT done and was NOT delivered by Noon today! So here's the big question. Under what terms do you RECALL the Mayor?

Is it:

Malfeasance
Misfeasance
Nonfeasance

Wicomico County Sheriff's Department NAILS Home Invaders!


Look, this is going to be somewhat sketchy for the time being but get this, the WCSO has the two individuals IN CUSTODY right now!

I'm told by OUTSIDE sources that they were actually able to track back the cell phone from that area in which she used the ATM Machine and was able to trace it back to a particular cell phone and a number. They were then able to get the name and address of that cell phone and BAM! Nailed!

I was also told that they recovered all but $8.00 of the gentleman's money that was stolen. HOT DAMN! That's Good Police Work! Great job guys! I hope my information is accurate and I'm waiting a return call to confirm it all.

The Angel Marshall Fund

I have another wonderful place to send your Christmas Money to this year and it's for a cause I am confident ALL of you will agree with.

Recently there was a horrific fire on Washington Street that took the lives of three people. Two of them were a Mother and Daughter, Angel & Cora. Sadly, the Family does not have enough money to bury their loved ones and Rite Aide is reaching out to the Community for help. Angel worked at the Rite Aide on Mt. Hermon Road.

The family has held a Memorial Service in Baltimore and was done. As a community, this is a great opportunity once again to reach out and deliver something very special.

You can send a check in the name of "Angel Marshall Family" and send it to:

Rite Aide
Attn. Aaron
1111 Mt. Hermon Road
Salisbury, MD. 21804

You can also stop by the Store and make your donation there in the Pharmacy. Thank You Folks and Merry Christmas.

Dear Barrie Tilghman


This is what you get when you're 100% in Compliance. The Department of Corrections did just that recently and was awarded by the State of Maryland through the County Council. Now THAT'S ACCOUNTABILITY.

Beau Oglesby To Step Down From States Attorney's Office


Within the next 30 day, Beau Oglesby will be stepping down from the States Attorney's Office and relocating to the Western Shore and going into a Private Practice with another former States Attorney from Wicomico County.

One thing is for sure, between the extremely long hours and extremely low pay, moving into the private sector will cut his hours probably in half and double his current income.

It will be a major blow to the States Attorney's Office and Beau will be deeply missed but anyone can respect the fact that if you want quality time with your Family and actually participate in raising your children, this is a necessity.

Best of luck to you Beau and thank you for all the service you have given to Wicomico County.

UPDATE: I just came to learn Beau is actually going to go into his own small civil practice in Montgomery County.

Oh, this should bring up some pretty interesting comments.

The Salisbury Fire Department Needs Competition

In the past 48 hours Salisbury News has had more than 400 comments and some pretty touchy articles. The SFD continues to look and prove the majority of them are immature Idiots and Hotheads, but what can you expect from a group of rejects nobody else wants anyway?

Oh, that's right, I'm sorry, they're hero's risking life and limb for YOU. Nah, that's BS anyway. They'd rather see my home burn to the ground while grabbing a lawn chair and bring marsh mellows to the fire. As a matter of fact, they were claiming if you didn't make donations you just might expect delays in their coming to your homes too. Of course as soon as people started reading that statement the Citizens just started tearing up their donation envelopes.

Oh, and God Forbid I'm in need of an ambulance! I'll call Life Star first. At least I know I'll get there quick! Isn't that too funny though Folks. Perhaps there should be an outside Fire Service????????

I'll bet I could purchase land, build a building exactly like the one in Salisbury and spend less than $3,000,000.00 for it. Then I could buy Fire Trucks, HIRE a full Staff and COMPETE with the SFD and knock them on their asses in delivery time. That's what these guys need, competition! Oh, they'd be welcome to use the In House Computers to play on the Internet all they wanted, as long as the work got done first.

They could be paid on First Response Results and I could start out with a building location in the HOTTEST SPOTS around the City. Then we would see just how good a location the West Side was after all! Think about it like this. We'd simply ignore any calls to the West side of the City and leave them with the gravy there because we all know there's a TON of fires on the West side, right? NOT! I'd build a Station near Camden and another one on the North end of Town. Yeah, the Montgomery Wards Service Department would have been pretty darned good but I'd settle for something closer to the State Police.

I'm sorry Ladies & Gentlemen but IF there was some competition, I'd win hands down, no questions asked. Then all you'd see in the SFD is a bunch of guys hanging off the back and sides of Fire Trucks half dressed, lips and buck teeth flapping in the wind and many with masks already on because they'd be sucking up the exhaust fumes from the Albero Fire Station Trucks way ahead of them.

Has anyone ever heard if this has ever been done before? They're doing it with ambulances, why not Fire Departments? Now that's "Keepin It Real!"

Wasn't It Last Christmas The Mayor Was After Von Siggers Home?

Holiday Scam ****PLEASE BEWARE****

Please be careful when you are Christmas shopping. I have to inform
you of what happened to me at Target in Salisbury. I fell victim to a
scam while shopping there. Simply going out Christmas shopping turned
out quite traumatic. Please don't be naive enough to think it
couldn't happen to you.

Here's how the scam worked...

Two REALLY good looking college women came over to my car while I was
loading packages. They both started cleaning my windshield and
mirrors, etc. with Windex and towels and they were dressed very
risqué, to say the least. It was damn near impossible to keep my eyes
off them. When they were finished and I try to pay them in some way
(being in the "holiday" spirit and all) for their effort, they said
"no sir, all we really need is a ride to the mall".

I (of course) agreed and they got in the back seat. On the way over
there they started to undress. The one climbed over the front seat
and started to crawl all over me, while the other one stole my wallet,
watch, and cash.

I had my wallet stolen December 10th, 11th, 13th, twice on the 15th
and also 6 times so far this week. They have not caught these crooks
YET!

So be very careful & tell your buddies to be careful as well.

Duvall Isn't What He Used To Be

I'm going to make this very brief. Although I respect the fact that Bill has been around for quite a while, when a fast ball is passing you at 100 mph and you're too old to even swing, isn't it time to call it quits?

His now legendary HERE and THERE links are NOT what his readers want. If at all possible, they want the old Bill Duvall that used to tell a good story and crack us up with his unique sense of humor.

Old & bitter, Duvall is a place I believe many of us will click on for quite some time because once in a blue moon we get something out of the guy that reminds us of what used to be and we think, maybe he'll get over that petty crap and go back to being the old Duvall? I know, I know, it hasn't happened but we can always hope anyway.

The Husband Store

A brand new store has just opened in New York City that sells Husbands. When women go to choose a husband, they have to follow the instructions at the entrance:- "You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are 6 floors and the value of the products increase as you ascend the flights. You may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you CANNOT go back down except to exit the building!


So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband.


On the 1st floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 - These men have jobs.

The 2nd floor sign reads: Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.

The 3rd floor sign reads: Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids and are extremely good looking.

"Wow," she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.

She goes to the 4th floor and the sign reads: Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help with Housework.

"Oh, mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!"

Still, she goes to the 5th floor and sign reads: Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, help with Housework and Have A Strong Romantic Streak. She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the 6th floor and the sign reads:

Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store

To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opens a New Wives store just across the street.

The 1st floor has wives that love sex.

The 2nd floor has wives that love sex and have money.

The 3rd through 6th floors have never been visited
