Take two thick slices of Noonie's day old bread, smear Honey Cup honey mustard
liberally over both. Cover both slices with green leaf lettuce. Then on one slice only lay smoked turkey on the lettuce,
a tomato slice on the turkey and sprinkle it with shredded carrot. Then on the lay a slice of provolone cheese over the
carrot then a green pepper ring on top of the cheese. Sprikle with sprouts. Cover with the other slice, lettuce side down.
The letuce should be stuck to the bread with honey mustard so it doesn't fall off when you turn it upside down to cover the
sandwich. Slice sandwich in half with a knife. Wrap in tightly in plastic wrap. Use too much wrap. Tape on label. Tadaaa!

BurlingtonPol TV Show 4

I'm at channel 17 right now waiting for Paul Decelles to show up. We're obviously going to talk about that whole pay proposal for city managers thing. I'll ask about his no vote on the budget too. Call in at 862-3966.
John Briggs at Burlington Free Press is reporting on a discussion at the city council about raising the pay for some city employees. I can see it maybe for a couple of really highly skilled and essential engineering positions- if we're not able to fill them now, but I would be highly skeptical about raising pay for anyone else. Especially Leopold! God no!
When I was on the city council I researched what city councils of comparably sized cities pay themselves, because I felt a civic imbalance between the compensation and resources of the mayor and those of the city council. I'll look in records later to see if I can find that info- but I remember Burlington city councilors made far, far under the average- which I think was around 15K. And this was back in 1996 when I was able to live on $8/hr.
If the city council votes to heap even further resources onto the city's executive branch, while continuing starve itself- the body of the people's most direct representatives, they will not be serving the long term interest of Burlington.
They got a little money this year and people got upset because the Dems hired a lawyer with it. I say good for them. The council should have some back up. God knows the mayor does.
I love Bob Kiss. I think he's doing a great job. But institutionally, the council is supposed to be the civic counterweight to the mayor. In practice- the council gets rolled by the mayor every single time.
Hey- I just got to play Associated Press editor again this morning. A top AP story on yahoo looked this way when I woke up today...
With the writer saying
"Yes you can," Barack Obama declared, brushing off his campaign slogan and adapting it for his foreign audience.
So I wrote a very simple email to the writer asking 'Don't you mean "dusting off" his old campaign slogan?' Lo and behold- a little later this morning it looks like this...
Isn't it crazy how easy it can be to change what millions of people are looking at?
I saw Kevin Ryan walking and talking with John Briggs on Church Street this afternoon.
Oh and Robert Hooper has to drop off the school board because he's moving from ward 7 to 4. He narrowly defeated my across the street neighbor Tom last year. Special election in September. Maybe I'll run.
The good worm met a shark and the shark tried to bite the good worm. The good worm tried to run away but the good worm found the cave that has the shark family in it. Now he found an army of sharks!
The army of sharks were after the worm. The worm found a building that has a roof like an hourglass on the top and is made of super shiny Legos.
There's a rescue sticker inside it and the car fell down off the wooden desk taped to the wall. Then the water spilled on the car that the good worm was driving on and the circuits ran out.
The bad worm was cleaning the number block. The shirt sweat was on it then the bad worm was cleaning it just because of that.
The good worm got on Koko's car. He wasn't looking so the bad worm slipped on the number block and ended up on Gabriel's car. But Gabriel's car slipped on a nose. Then he slipped in his house and a boom operation boomed his house and the number block boomed out of there. But the number block got boomed too quickly and died.
Then the chimney hourglass fell from that house we discovered onto the number block. Then the number block got alive again. The yellow one is the one that put people to be dead, but the blue one is good. Then the good worm found a printer and accidentally printed himself. Then he could still walk and wiggle. He accidentally wiggled on the keyboard and he pressed the operation button and every house exploded.
[This is going to be a really great story! When people read this they'll be so excited!]
But the operation boomed everything except the yellow hourglass. Except the blue hourglass was attached to the yellow hourglass. So the worm was half dead, half alive. Now the worm got a bump on his head. But he slipped on a piece of paper and ended up falling into an operation house.
Then the thing he was riding on was a secret thing. It was invisible.
