  1. Am I correct that Mayor has sworn 2 sons to PD and one son to FD?

  2. yes, why is the mayor and council replacing workers in the fire and police. don’t the other village dept’s count. or are they just fish food.

  3. Yes, 7:07. You are correct. And your point is?????

  4. It’s weird how they all have the same last name!

  5. Must be killing Jeff to pose in the photo.

  6. You betcha

  7. And least we forget on the nepotism side…Ms. Taylor is a Shortway. Consodince? Doubtful as is clearly runs rampant through VH. And when did the Mayor start wearing a Muumuu?

  8. Jeff should have wormed his way right next to Susan and stuck his head in there with a big dumb smile on his face so they cant cut him out for the family photo on the mantle. That would have made me laugh very hard.

  9. Really, the best you can come up with is to criticize the mayor’s clothing choice? What grade are you in?
