What’s a democrat to do? I’ll be inconsolable for few days…

The big issue on my mind today; are we all going to have to buy new clothes? Republicans are all so well-dressed; perfectly coiffed and well let’s face it they all look like Scott Brown and Monica Crowley. What’s a frumpy New England democrat to do?

This could be great for all those downtown nail and hair salons; we’ll all be getting $300. low lights and having our nails done weekly. I bet even Giovanni’s does well; they have a nice selection of stiletto’s…and we’ll all be wearing those while precariously trying to navigate the cobblestone streets while our toes turn blue from the cold. I also think this will be a great opportunity for Marc Caputo to use his outstanding design skills to teach us all how to put together an outfit…not to mention accessorize (I had to spell-check that word). I guess I’ll have to just look at it as a learning experience. Eleni I need help!!!

Now that that’s out of the way…I can get on to thinking about the more important issues like:
Will Marshall’s be replaced with Stein Mart?
Will Lady Antebellum replace Joshua Tree at Winterfest?
Cheers!

‘hood stuff

Tuesday July 14th, 6:30 PM – City Council meeting. Please note on the agenda Councilor Milinazzo has a motion to for an independent legal investigation into whether the council violated the city (Plan E) charter when they voted not to fund assistant city manager, Andy Sheehan’s position.
I am not in the habit of editorializing… however, this motion by a councilor who publicly acknowledged she did it “because she doesn’t like him…” or some such nonsense…SCREAMS out for top honors in the WTF? category. Stay-tuned…I can not imagine one other councilor besides Mr. Milinazzo would possibly have the courage to vote in favor of this motion. To put it simply…this is sad, sad, sad for the city.


Which leads me to remind everyone: http://www.fairvotelowell.org/ Petitions for an initiatve to be placed on this November’s ballot are due within the next week. If have the petition, please call or send me an email at: kmarcin@gmail.com
