Sheriff's candidate Brian Grear felt slighted when the Sheriff's deputies union had a "show of hands" vote to endorse a candidate for Sheriff. Scott couldn't blame him. Brian was the first caller of the show, in which we also discussed Tom Delay and the Seneca Nation of Indians new hotel. Good show.

County Legislator Dennis Virtuoso was in studio to discuss the ongoing battle over casino cash and the Republican leadership. Took some phone calls - the folks seemed to like Dennis.

I interviewed my daughter, Emily, about Katherine Debrecht's book, "Help Mom! There are Liberals Under My Bed." Emily, 8, decided after reading the book that Liberals - and specifically Hillary Clinton - were bad. Very interesting. Listen for yourself.

We continued Monday's theme of coming up with small hints to help make our community a better place. For example: fix a pothole on Olcott Street; fix street signs on Main Street; flashing red lights on Main; a stuck red light in NF. Overall a good show.

We played and discussed the presidents weekly radio address, plus talked about lights on main street - street signs - and why certain positions are elected. Overall a good show, although the last caller seemed to think we were putting Main Street down. We weren't. Just offering constructive criticism.

Friday's show was all over the board. We talked about Dennis Virtuoso being the exception to the Democrat rule (that they're not bright), Keith McNall pushing his luck in saying Glenn Aronow is up to dirty tricks, and political signs. Overall, a good show.

Jim Hufnagel and Joan Johnson of Niagara Heritage Partnership were in studio to discuss their contention that the Robert Moses Parkway is a security threat to the New York Power Authority. Hufnagel said the power project could be our New Orleans' levies. He also asked for the resignations of Lewiston Mayor Richard Soluri and NT Councilman Brett Sommer from the Greenway commission.

Some pretty cool things going on with the show. More than I've said on previous shows. Download and listen for details. :)

John Hall and Melissa Dunlap from the Niagara County Historical Society were in studio discussing the Village and Town of Lewiston. We also discussed the Lewiston/Queenston Bridge, which ran into a conversation on bridges to Canada in general ... which caused Scott to recall another school skipping experience when he and some buddies walked to Canada to skip school. Good times.

Tuesday we talked about just about everything; starting with Scott complaining about CSEA and the Canal Corp combining forces to pick your pockets, then onto Monday's topic again (Casino Cash), and finally handicapped parking (how'd that happen). Plus somewhere in the middle we talked about school attendence and Scott told a story of getting caught skipping school. Overall a good show, but the audio quality of this one is kind of suspect - especially toward the end. Sorry about that. Hope you enjoy, nonetheless.

We began with the presidents weekly radio address and Scott's take on it. Then we switched to a very local topic - Niagara County's lawsuit against the city of Niagara Falls for the casino cash. Scott asked a simple question. Here's the scenario: You have $100. You have to give it to either NF Mayor Vince Anello or NC Legislator Malcomb Needler to spend on your behalf. Who gets the money?

Friday's show was a mismash of a bunch of things. We talked about something old (the Subway discussion we had the other day concerning lunches at Starpoint); something new (Arnold Schwarzenegger wants California to have the best school lunches in the nation); something borrowed (the news stories that I "borrowed" from other news sources); and something Bu (that's short for Bubonic Plague, which some mice in New Jersey were infected with in a lab ... and then LOST!!!). Good show. Ends on a down note with a very frumpy woman, who's upset that it was rainy. Sheesh. Can't please some people.

Thursday we talked about bad habits by judges (such as a complete inability to tell time and an inability to interpret the Constitution) ... as well as the stupidity of licensing. Some good conversations.

How frustrating. How infuriating. How stupid. Again, Democrats in Niagara County lose their own damn primaries. Are the voters stupid? Or is the party that inept that they don't let the people know who "the real Democrats" are? Or ... is it in the water? The day after the primary and Scott's miffed. Download and enjoy.

It's Primary Day in Niagara County and we have a last minute discussion about the races at hand. I answer people's questions about whether they have a primary in their district in their party ... as a free public service, of course. And despite my stating NUMEROUS TIMES that polls are open noon to 9, I get complaints from the Board of Elections that I said the poll times wrong. Listen for yourself. Plus, we discuss Subway Restaurants wanting to sell their subs at Starpoint Schools for lunch. Overall, a good show, if I do say so myself. :)

Scott retorts the presidents weekly radio address and we discuss claims that a Keith McNall aide made campaign calls from the school board - on the taxpayers time. Both McNall and Glenn Aronow call.

Marcia Pappas, president of the New York State Chapter fo the National Organization For Woman was my guest for the first part of the show. The conversation continued after Marcia went along her marry way. Some people still think that "there's girl jobs and boy jobs." I say hooey. If a girl wants to do something, let her.

I'm not impressed with the incompetance at the Niagara County Board of Elections. I've attempted to get them on the show for three years and they've never been willing. I check their website, and it appears that the "current election" is between George W. Bush and John F. Kerry ... despite the fact that there is a primary Tuesday. The B.O.E. S.U.X.

Legislator Aronow was in studio ... and the phone calls were fast and furious. Actually, I thought Glenn had been set-up cause there were more calls than usual before we even started, but everyone was pretty reasonable. Main topic - health insurance for County Legislators. Good fun show.

Tuesday's show was a little bit of everything ... but mainly gas prices and whose fault it is. Plus we discussed who has the cheap gas and who's screwing us. Moral of the story: Sunoco=good. Noco=bad. Enjoy.

Although it was Labor Day - and Scott was taking the day off - he still responded to the President's Weekly Radio Address. And also shared his thoughts on Kanye West's comments during Friday's relief concert. Plus, we played eight songs that were anti-war/pro-peace/anti GWB. Here's the song list: # 1) Jacob's Ladder - by Chumbawumba. # 2) Teach Peace - The Tom Conner Band # 3) Lean on Me - ABC Radio Network # 4) Shame on You, Mr Bush - Jocke Bobers/Janne Palmen # 5) Sunday, Bloody Sunday - The Party Party # 6) I am a Patriot - Eddie Vedder (of Pearl Jam) # 7) Wake Up - Cold Duck Complex # 8) MKLVFKWR - Public Enemy and Moby Links to many of the songs can be found in the members section of the forum.

We discussed the government's pathetic efforts to help the hurricane torn region down south and the price gouging being done throughout the country on gasoline.

You never know what Lyndon LaRouche is going to say ... as indicated in this promo, which blames Dick Cheney for 9/11 and the casualty rate from Hurrican Katrina.

This is Lyndon's third trip to Dialog. And man, was it a fun show. Lyn makes me look like a conservative, the things he says about the administration. We talked about "acting president" Dick Cheney pushing for a pre-emptive nuclear attack on Iran, September 11th, and Hurricane Katrina. This is one to listen to over and over. For more information on Lyn, visit LaRouchePAC.com

Sometimes I say stupid stuff. Occasionally people find it funny. This is a brief where I point that tidbit out. Only 90 seconds. Can you afford NOT to listen?

Scott took issue with the "strike talk" at Lockport Memorial Hospital. Scott thinks that if you want to make as much money as a person working for "company X," you go work for "company X." Seems pretty simple to me. We also discussed gasoline prices and some other fun stuff. Enjoy.
