| Kettering mayor presents 'State of the City'
Let me begin this year's State of the City message by saying thank you to the voting residents of Kettering who helped us pass a critical income tax levy in May of 2006. We came to you with a sincere need and you listened openly to our message and responded with a genuine desire to see this City succeed far into the future.
Kettering is a unique community - we offer a very high quality of life to residents of every age. It is our full range of services that creates that quality of life factor - services and programs that might not be important to one resident, are very important to another. I'm pleased that we are capable of displaying such a variety - it is what makes us who we are.
In our campaign message of Protecting Safety and Preserving Stability, we indicated that safety and stability were of the utmost importance to us as Council and Administration.
Column of Hero: 03.31.07
Pick those jaws back up off the floor, losers, and start blinking those eyes. Yes, oh yes, hell has indeed frozen over. Bad for you, even worse for the former writer of this column, but faaaantastic for yours truly, your Hero, your next generation Mr. Wonderful, Chris Hero. No, this is not a joke. This is as serious as a heart attack, which I'm sure many of you lard-asses will be experiencing while eating Cheetos and Pop Tarts in your mother's basement and listening to your illegally acquired Fall Out Boy and Snow Patrol mp3s. You see, there are many out there who doubted the true power of I, the magnificently clever and quite handsome Chris Hero. Some people don't understand the stroke I have and what damage I can truly do to those I disdain. Ari Berenstein was one such doubter, and now he has paid the price for his naïve insolence.
Sweet 16 Pants Party: Ohio State Vs. Tennessee
1. Brilliant Thug History. Though the football team may get most of the publicity involved with criminal antics -- from such notable favorites Maurice Clarett, Louie Irizarry and old timer Art Schlichter -- Buckeye basketball is nothing to sneeze at. In the 90s players brought the city of Columbus to its knees in the grip of fear. Residents were not safe to drive their cars down the streets without getting hit and run by the likes of Greg Simpson. The same Simpson who was so notorious that not only was he kicked out of Ohio State, but he was removed from the West Virginia basketball team as well. The same West Virginia that never kicked noted miscreants Pacman Jones and Chris Henry off of the football team. Gas station attendants cowered behind plexiglass after the mere mention of gas thief extraordinaire Charles "Killer" Macon.
