Basic Common Sense

(Community Matters) I’m floored. Our fire chief decides not to promote someone to battalion chief because he’s knowingly lied to investigators and has admitted shop lifting (the Chief cited “unprofessional, unscrupulous conduct” and his failure to “live up to his promise to be better”) – AND, yet an arbitrator rules she must promote him?

This is ludicrous. Austin’s city council must stand up against this silliness and support Chief Kerr. Hard for them to do because of the muscle of the firefighters union –  let’s see who puts right ahead of politics. AAS article

Fish Tacos

(Community Matters) hmm, I thought Thursday’s dinner was gorgeous, and it was.  Yet homemade fish tacos w/ Lynn & Tommie Meredith while overlooking the city from the best views in town – priceless – casual, warm, comfortable evening. Special treat: Abby joining us by dessert – can she and Hilary really be the same age?
