"Show me a man who lives alone and has a perpetually dirty kitchen, and
five times out of nine I'll show you an exceptional man." -Charles
Bukowski
...and you'll see how far behind we are. Look at how respected their mayor is compared to ours. Look at how proud the rest of the citizens of Michigan are to have Detroit as its premier city.
Looks like you never lived in MI!! The majoirty of MI people both in and outside of Detroit thinks it blows!
All the money has left the city decades ago! Detroit will always have a corrupt Black Mayor. It's a tradition set by Coleman Young. Archer was the only honest one they had. Next worst city is Benton Harbor!
It's not so much the 5 years to fix what has been done, you cannot fix most things that are in the past. You can only apologize, ask for forgiveness and move on. It will likely take the 5 years to remove all of Finkbeiner's henchmen and bottom feeders.
"Kilpatrick, asked on WWJ-AM (950) whether he would resign,
said: "Nah. Not at all. I don't even understand how that is really in
the public discussion."
And he later told reporters, "I'll be here for as long as I can be here."
Meanwhile,
a City Council committee approved a resolution calling for the mayor to
resign and threatening his removal from office if he doesn't. Council
members Martha Reeves, Brenda Jones and Kwame Kenyatta make up the
Internal Operations committee. The resolution, sponsored by Kenyatta,
passed on a voice vote."

It would be good if the city council here in Toledo would take note of this, and take steps to remove Carty from office!
someone already started the rumor that Carty was going to resign under "medical conditions".
I'm not crazy about the source of that tidbit, but I will be amused to see the credibility factor plummet when it dosen't happen.
See who is trying to start shit again ? Must I again point out your numerous childlike cries for attention ?
Everyone else on the blogosphere knows you as an attention-hungry child that cannot properly spell words, and cannot construct a proper English sentence to save his (her) life.
Must you continuously call attention to these facts ?
Grow up, child. I am finished toying with you. You bore me. I ran circles around you last weekend to prove what a dolt you are. Your lack of intelligence is all too obvious.
you just may want to find another avenue to try and belittle me, I'd be here all day pointing out all your incompetence just in the 48 hours of crap you've typed out.
And it won't be pretty.
How is that recall thing you got going on?
I see someone typing something but I don't care what they're saying.
Or else you would not have replied.
Bee-yotch.
but wow, your ego must have taken quite a beating from me to have to drag your drama out across the blogoshpere.
I clearly do not recall, and yes, after re-reading my post, no where did I mention you, but you want to come full barrels flying about some trivial antic about a rumor because you don't have credibility.
It's amusing to watch you bust out your assertive side again, tho, seeing what you type matters not a whole lot to me, but that's not saying I don't mind watching our less-educated enjoy thinking they're better because they stood watch on a web page with a tazered keyboard.
Riviting, el moron.
It's not too surprising to see you stalking me anyway, but the envy is becomming annoying tho. Which is why this too will be my final address directed to you on this site too.
"Which is why this too will be my final address directed to you on this site too."
Fool, count the number of times you have posted AFTER this tale of hogwash.
Once again, your words are meaningless.
that wouldn't quit.
Besides, I'm having fun, so if my reniging ignoring you provides me and others with a source of entertainment, I can sacrifice my own dignity for a few days.
you, umm...forgot to post a link for that comment btw.
You may perceive my words as meaningless, but they carry far more clout than yours.
that I am following you around the net and posting anti-brianna comments. And tell her my word is no good on truce. As long as these false stories make you feel good in front of her.
Just make sure you meet me in the swamp, bitch.
Where men are men and bitches get kicked to the curb.
That be you.
you're going to crack down on my using "gots", yet you type this example out before my own post.
Hey hypocrite, at least I'm consistant.
So which is it, "That be me" as men are men or "That be me" as "bitches get kicked to the curb"?
And how is that recall effort comming along?
Go cry to Lisa, you cryass... make up a story

No, instead of you actually honoring your truce, you chose to go and make up "Curious" and think you'd get away with showing everyone how lame a man you are by typing to me under another name. Didn't work out as well as you hoped, huh stupid ass?
So don't go popping off about your word is gold, because it's not. You're a pathetic liar that has no facts to back anything you type You think you're someone because you stood next to Carty and saw Steve Steel drink in a bar, but in reality, you're just some ignorant twit with nothing better to do than research me and try to be wittier than me, and you failed in both instances.
I've been using my real name on Toledo blogs for four years. I've had only three nitwits try to engage me and all three had elementary school material. I mean, homo, drunk, loser and liar wear out after three minutes. But you are the first to do research on me that I know of.
This has gone on long enough, we've seen the miserable effort you've put towards this, and we even learned a few things about you, even if your name isn't one of them.
But, before you go, share with us your efforts to recall Carty.
ok you win now shoo with the threats and drama, you're wasting valuable posting space with your vivid imagination.
that also goes by the name 'Brian Maxson' ?
You left Toledo in 1991. That was 17 years ago. Why do you still post comments on blogsites like you still live here in Toledo and know what is going on ? Don't they have anything going on in the great state of Florida that catches your interest ?
You always talk about how 'great' it is down there.
Talk about the mosquitos, snakes, alligators, and summer heat and humidity. Remember to mention the overcrowding.
Focus on Florida, numbskull.
I've been using my last name on GCJ for a while now, and I have to crack up to think that you think two different Brian's are exposing your ignorance for giggles..
The "Brian" must be the obvious clue to elude you.
Who do you have there that's helping you figure stuff out, because it's quite apparent you suck at addition.
FYI, I post because I care about my hometown. My "investments", which are part of my income, have Skippy's fingerprints all over it.. Been like that for 20 years.
And I do know what's going on, unlike you and "your inside connection" where your rumor of Carty resigning because of a "medical condition" has yet to materialize, let alone not even making the rumor mill on 22.
You stood next to Carty and you still have no clue as to the goings on in your environment.
Of course I'm going to talk about how great it is down here. You're not going to see porpoise swimming the Maumee. My roots are Toledo.
Besides, you have yet to engage me maturly and responsibly, instead chosing to lamely attack who I am because I smacked you down on Lisa's site. You throw out that I'm a "homo" and a "drunk" , attack my child and threaten me, thinking it will harm my credibility and piss me off?
You've done research on me and dug deep to find any smidgen of info about me and spent your entire Saturday morning and part of your afternoon digging on little old me and sitting here waiting for me to post.
All because I harmed your ego?
The hilarious part is all you had to do is ask me. But now that I know you're insane, I'm rethinking that.
How's that recall thing comming?
After reading all of this, can I ask if everyone can be kinder, gentler bloggers?
BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG
I think you hit him.
He still does the hit-and-run throughout the swamp.
Keep your eyes open....
Acts all the innocent when he is at Lisa's house, though. You might want to take a shot at him there.
I'm thinking it's towards the whole juvenile diatribe, dipshit.
oh lets skip across the blogosphere dodging your stupidity and ignorance while you drag your trite pathetic drama for all to witness.
I mean, what the hell does one have to do to maintin civility without resorting to such childish dramatics, let alone avoid reading your yellow posts threatening me.
But I will say this, poor el moron got his pee pee spanked on Lisa's site, and it was my fault for not stopping. Let's not have that same fiasco here and just grow the fuck up and move on?
Take your damaged ego to the ego hospital and send me the bill.
You don't pay your bills, you bum.
Rumor around Galena is you skipped in '91 and owe half the fellas.
What the hell are you guys even talking about?
thinks he's climbing under my skin.
He just dosen't realize that why I don't take him seriously as he begs his way across the blogs is becaue he is a zit. When I smack him down with logic, he comes back with the "Homo, drunk and daughter" material because I gave it to him. There's no meat with his drama, just hot air and pithy ramblings.
He thinks because he knows someone he is someone. He hasn't backed anything he's thrown out here at all, except for these juvenile postings of his "worthless innuendos" and rides off the opinions of other posters.
I'm still waiting for that "Recall Carty Campaign" to take root. So far I've seen nothing except some half-assed "medical condition" rumor drama he threw up on a wall, as usual.
And as far as Galena Street, El moron knows nothing. It's been relatively safe since Shetler's burned down, but dollar to a doughnut you won't see him wandering the neighborhood especially down by Erie Foods. Dipshit dosen't realize I still gots family and investments there. So I let him bloviate. His true mettle will be when I come to town so I can see him kick me to the curb.
You call 2 'crack' houses on Chase street 'investments' ??????????
The Lucas County Auditor says you do not have ANY property in your name in Lucas County.
Those crack houses must be on land contracts that are not even registered with the Auditor. Were the contracts written on restaurant napkins from Yum-Yum ???
BWA-HA-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you know where the curb is outside Erie Foods ???
You still "gots family" ? Please.
That talkin' on the fly shit does not cut it with me.
Only shows your ignorance.....
DON BriaANNA, oh Godfather of Galena.
BWA-HA-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Either I won't last in the neighborhood or am I the Godfather?
You're confusing the audience with your ignorance again.
And, by the way, we are all waiting to hear how your "Recall Carty" campaign is going on.
Those brainfarts you experienced trying to find some depth to your comebacks must have allowed that multi-tasking noggin to "overlook" this pressing question.
This is hilarious.
but now a resident of Vero Beach, Florida for the past 17 years, YOU, my friend, are the laughingstock of the blogosphere.
You are entertaining to these people.
Thanks for giving me so much material.
Put down the rum and smell the coffee.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...take it el moron....pull that line and show us all the depth of your mind.
Man, did you used to write for those "See Dick and Jane" books?
Get back to me when you pass the "creative writing" course. This material is all used up.
lovin' all the effort into finding out about me on a Saturday Afternoon...who dosen't have the life?
Never mentioned properties, dipshit.
I've already went out to the intercoastal, had lunch, watched the dolphin frollic, went and got my taxes done and all you have done is research on me....
Who got had?
That 'research' took all of 30 seconds to do.
Stop making yourself think you are something... you are nothing.
BTW - you ran that 'intercoastal' game on us last week, along with the frolicing dolphins, and your gay lunch.
How many times have you had your taxes done this year ???
Everyone knows that you are full of shit.
that took the time to go to the County web site, click on AEGIS, type in my name and scan for info.
Dosen't matter how long it took, it's the fact you made the effort, Research Boy!
There you go with your "homo" bit again. You would think a person in the position you were in would be a tad more discrete with throwing words around, they'll come back to bite you. Besides, I have to tell you, my wife finds it amusing that you think I am gay because I am more intellectually ept than you.
I want you to find that "other" post and copy and paste it, date and time stamp included so it can be verified, under this post and show me where I repeated myself, which means the taxes I allegedly done last week. Don't count the times I posted where I did go to Captain Hirams, where I go to eat all the time, just when I gone to eat and went and did my taxes.
You can't do it because you are a fucking moron.
You should be familiar with the procedure, you've looked me up before!
Now, how is the recall campaign comming along?
It is coming along fine, thank you.
Even though you have asked repeatedly how is it "COMMING', I guess I should just take you at your word about how bright and witty you are.
You just spell 'coming' in your own style, right ?
Don't blame Chase Elementary. It is YOU that is stupid.
Why are you sensitive about 'homo' ? I refer to a gay (meaning light, happy) lunch and you start crying again.
Don't be so STUPID, dolt.
Riverside is the Elementary School that I went to.
Chase was for those north of Cleveland St.
Well, bigshot, oops, I mean bigSHIT, since you tell us that you are "a walking pharmacy," what sort of substances are you bringing to our community here in Ohio from Florida ???
BTW - One thing I learned from working with criminals in the criminal justice system : The idiots always tell on themselves. The key is to know what to listen for.
We don't have to listen too hard with you - You are SHOUTING "I am a fool, I am an idiot. I am so insecure in myself that I have to talk trash on other people to make myself feel bigger."
latch onto anything I set out there and you just take it to the end zone, regardless if it's factual or not.
The sign of a desperate man clinging to the last shreads of his own humanity. The key to that one is reading your own posts.
And if I were you, I'd stop listening. It's the echo in your own computer room you're hearing.
You guys had great rants on here today, but they all pale in comparison to this (turn your speakers up):
http://ballhype.com/video/kevin_borseth_on_wisconsin_loss/
you made me miss my daddy!
Besides, it take s a special kind of person to take the time out of thir Saturday and make an effort to do as much research on one person that has no influence on their real life as El Moron has with me.
Besides, I hope he used the "s" in my name that I've been using on Glass City Jungle instead of the "t" he's been using in his posts. An example from above" BLOW ME bitch. (Brianna Maxton).

See who is trying to start shit again ? Must I again point out your numerous childlike cries for attention ?
Tragic had that research been for naught.
But what agreat video! Thanks! :)
Made you miss your daddy ???
If this guy on the video made you miss your daddy, that tells us a lot ;
This guy is an ass that treats people like they are full of shit.
Since you miss treatment of this sort from your daddy, you must miss being treated like you are full of shit.
Therefore, it is reasonable to conclude that you are full of shit.
And you are.
why don't you just quit. I was amusing the others that have enjoyed reading me smacking you around like an empty toilet paper roll.
I may be full of shit, but at least I'm making the effort to utilize the big words and smacking you with facts to keep you workin'! Besides you don't see me caring who you are! lol
Now, how is that Recall Carty campaign comming along?
referred to you as Maxton.
It's in the Jungle,
Go find it, bitch.
That's IT??
Sepp, whom I've been blogging along side for four years, misspelled my name and YOU took it for gospel and used it a LOT.
Who is the bitch now? LOL
Oh yeah, before I forget, how is that Recall Carty campaign comming along?
"Oh yeah, before I forget, how is that Recall Carty Campaign COMMING along ?"
What an uneducated dolt you are. I am happy to have your lack of intelligence on exhibit again, for the masses to see. Again.
As I mentioned earlier, it is coming along fine.
Guess you skipped school the day the English teacher went over 'drop the e, and add i - n - g.'
Your hardheaded, wannabe-intellectual ass still insists on doubling a consonant. Do you even know what a 'consonant' is, fool ?
There were probably more important things going on down at Shetlers that day, like having your daily fix of rum and coke. First the rum, and then some 'coke'.
Would that be 'Galena coke' ?
"A walking pharmacy". How STUPID can you get ?
Please disregard that last question. Everytime I think I have seen it all out of your stupid ass, you come up with something ELSE that makes you appear even more stupid.
I think I have shown everyone without a shadow of a doubt that you are a stupid person that wallows in envy, vindivctiveness, ignorance, and slop.
You've contradicted yourself, you've smokescreened, you've lied, and you've failed to prove anything other than your own stupidity.
You're reaching for straws to, what, humiliate me? With what? You haven't shown anyone anything to back up anything you've typed.
You took the time and effort to do research on me.
You've taken the time to respond to each and every one of my factual posts with some conjured dramatics within your delusions of granduer.
We can keep going as long as you want, but how many times are you going to utilize your material and not post something worth anything?
What I do find interesting, when Tom was doing his Recall Carty campaign, he was in the news. Your stealthy campaign is missing something.
Interest.
Is that why you got chased out of Galena ?
Always wanting to get up in everyone's business. STUPID.
And do you think I answer to you, now ? STUPID.
Now how did I get chased out of Galena, Mr "All-knowing"?
I'll be waiting for your answer.
Always wanting to get up in everyone's business? Me? No interest. I'm enjoying myself enough just smacking you around here, why would I care who you are?
You can inquire to each and every blog site owner, webmaster in the community and so on, and ask if they received any mail from me inquiring any information on you, about you, or wondering who you are, the answer is going to be "no". The only information I ever got on you was from Lisa when she confirmed to me that you were not "LibDem", whom I thought you were, when she emailed me to "calm down and quit". I can assure you, I don't care.
You aren't that important to me, except for the enjoyment of watching you type that pathetic, yet easy, material, all the while to try to clamor to maintian some dignity by correcting my spelling.
Nice save.
Mr. Dolt - Obviously you do not reread your material prior to posting it. How do I know ?
The posts ramble, are disconnected and hardly make sense.
I would be embarassed to have your, shall we say, 'intellectual capacity', and then wave it at people for the whole world to see.
Did you say that you engaged in this type of frivolous banter with 3 other people ? And el Mahico makes 4.
What is the common denominator here ?
In simpler terms for simple people such as yourself ;
What is the common thread here ? The answer is YOU, dolt.
Look in the mirror. Tell us what you see.
Fool.
Curious is you too, dolt. lol Again with that addition of yours.
My posts don't make sense to you because you lack intellect at my level. It is clear that you just can't quite comprehend what I type, which explains the depth of your retorts.
You're doing a fine job on your own with your "intellectual capacity". lol Keep up the good work.
Fool? Me?
I don't think so. :)
for your witty reason my "nosey" ass got "ran off Galena Street", by the way.
Let's see if any of my creative writing skills rubbed off on you, shall we?
Now that football season is over, you two are a riot! Interested to see if anything changes after this Tuesday election.
"Shoot at me" again so the poor guy has something to smile at, ok?
Thanks!
:)
that people say 'How high?' when you, King Dolt, say 'jump' ???
Your "walking pharmacy" ass probably thinks they are saying 'let's GET high'.
Sad, sad.
BWA-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ! ! !
happen to notice when I say "jump", people say "how high"?
What's up with the wrong usage of the quotes, Ye Master of the English Language?
The only one jumping through hoops for my entertainment is you.
'jump' and 'how high' are not direct quotes attributable to the speaker.
Singular quotes are used for emphasis and clarity in the first two examples.
" Walking pharmacy " is directly attributable to the named speaker. You said that. Exact words.
Double quotes, dolt.
Get it, now ?
Please stop showing your ignorance here and get to watching a bunch of cars going around in circles for hours on end.
Show it there, Tex.
Hurry up with your witty repartee, I got a NASCAR race comming on in an hour and I want you to get this out of your system so that way you can't use your simple mind to type something and have it hang there while I'm watchin the race.
Just wouldn't be fair to your fans.
"I got a NASCAR race comming on in an hour ...."
No wonder TPS is/was on Academic Emergency status.
Anything wrong with the spelling or grammar in those first 10 words ? No hints for you.
This is what happens when the products of TPS are released into society. As adults, they can not write to save their ass.
Too much time spent as a "walking pharmacy" when they should have been listening to teacher.
Tsk-tsk.
Ain't that a shame ?
