How many other cities....you would not know about this unless I posted it.

When they showed the fatal Chicago fire on FNC, I told my spouse about speculation that Daley was taking pre-emptive action after seeing what's going down in Philadelphia.

He pooh-poohed me and said the room it started in was probably a maintenance store room with lots of solvents or something. I agreed that was probably true, but what if it was in an archive of some type... A little later he came after me to tell me that Fox had announced it was a document room. I haven't heard one more word about it, but I'm hoping.

"I haven't heard one more word about it, but I'm hoping."

Good thinking. Let me know if you find out if this is connected to the Street case.

Oh, there's a LOT more to this story...

Thanks for the info Bella. I thought it had all been swept under the rug.

Kenny Bunk, it's not over yet. See the above posts by Bella.

There are a lot of complaints about the quality of construction and repairs of some of the schools down here (I believe) associated (somehow) with this scandal.

What makes it more interesting is that there are Scranton people involved, that one "little" clique, know what I mean..And if you read the article in the Scranton paper, you can see they're running for cover...I know these people..lol...let them all be jailed!

[Bella]

BTW, if you notice, the same people are involved..and also check the Philly paper, the one guy is a convicted murderer who changed over to Islam..big story..

"What makes it more interesting is that there are Scranton people involved, that one "little" clique, know what I mean..

What is the significance of Scranton? I don't know much about that state.

[blam]

"In City Hall, meanwhile, a gallows humor prevails. One joke making the rounds among Street aides: What do we call the time when we fielded questions about a Molotov cocktail tossed at the office of the mayor's opponent? The good old days."

This is funny.

It's almost cartoonish they way they are so open about payoffs....... like they are untouchable......thanks for the update

[Bella]

I'd love to tell you what I know, but, I don't know WHO reads this forum..I will post some impt url's to explain some things..Some of the "players" are from Scranton, and you can "read" why I can't come out and say things..please understand because I know these people and they worked for the last campaign/election. There's been a LOT going on in Scranton, and I was unaware of just how "deep" this is/was, and where it's going to go.
