Great Rates, No Banks. Borrow. Lend. Prosper. Code Neon Blue! - I am not a natural meetingist

Another blade of the Grassroots, trying to help revive the US political system. My blogitory is Southeastern Colorado, especially Lamar in Prowers County. But not all that much happens around here (that's how we LIKE IT!), so my daily posts will feature state and national issues too.

I am not a natural meetingist

I don’t necessarily dislike them, but they tend to throw me off schedule, and then it’s hard getting back on. Another reason I am not cut out for any political stuff that’s not behind the scenes.

On Thursday our Prowers County Dem board got together to try to get our heads around a timeline for the next year. Lots of stuff on that list now, after only one short meeting!

At this point in time I still have one free weekend (not counting Thanksgiving) in November and a couple in December. :/ I am finishing off October by celebrating Free Dump Weekend. Yeah, I know, woo hoo.

So that this post will have SOME content, I will share an interesting story from our local paper, the Lamar Ledger. (That’s the one that changed to a three-issues-per-week venue, which meant they could not longer be called the Lamar Daily News. Which ruined one of my favorite jokes, where I fondly referred to them as the Daily Snooze.)

ANYWAY, it seems the Corgi company wants to make and market a collectible model of one of our fire trucks, because it has an interesting history. “It was originally owned by the Arlington, Va. Fire Department and used at the scene of the terrorist attack on the Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001,” according to the online article.

The full link is here if you want to see more!
