This blog is absolutely terrible. Your writing sucks, your topics are boring, and you've actually managed to make a basic blogspot layout look atrocious.

Morons like you give blogging a bad name.

To Anon, I'll post any news I get on news of a strike.

Bradley,
Your comment has nothing to do with the subject matter of this post. It's also abrasive, meaningless, and rude.

People like you give commenting a bad name.



Shaun,
Thanks for all of your posts that keep us informed on local and national news.
