The national scene is just too much not to make a comment.
Huma Abedin, Hillary Clinton's numero uno flunky has got to be kidding. The FBI has recently reopened its look see at HRC's email situation. Primarily because of Abedin emails found on her husband's laptop.
Now Abedin is saying she doesn't know how those emails wound up on her husband's computer.
Is she stupid, or does she think everybody else is? Must be the latter as she has been taking lessons from HRC for about 20 years.
OK, Huma, let's see if we can help you figure out how those emails got on that computer.
Here are some possibilities:
1. Vladimir Putin put them there.
2. Wikileaks put them there
3. The Republican National Committee paid a bunch of folks to break into your husband's residence with all those emails on DVDs and uploaded them to the computer.
4. The magical email fairy made them appear on the computer.
5. You used your husband's computer and did it yourself. Duhhhhhh.......................
If you haven't voted yet, don't forget to do so, and just for the heck of it, become a deplorable and vote for Trump.

Part 2 - Winter is Coming - Will Your Car Get Stolen?
Did you read the post below? If not, ya might wanna give it a try.
Now here is part 2. I've been in touch with the Shawnee PD and there are some interesting numbers to think about.
1. Approximately 1 in 4 stolen autos during the winter months are ones which were left running.
2. Of the stolen vehicles left running, 55% are stolen from single family residences, 38% from apartment complex parking lots and 7% from convenience store parking lots.
I don't know about you folks, but since we are short of personnel at the PD and blackout minutes are still high, I, as a taxpayer would prefer to see our PD not have to deal with unnecessary crimes caused by citizen irresponsibility. C'mon, it affects all of us, one way or another.
Let's use some common sense, please.

Winter is Coming - Will Your Car Get Stolen?
Hmmmm, what does winter have to do with stolen vehicles? That's easy. People have a tendency to start their vehicles and leave them running unattended. Golly gee willikers, that is an open invitation to have the vehicle stolen. And yes, even if you lock the car because you have a spare set of keys, a thief can see the keys in the ignition, bust out a back window (doesn't want glass on the seat) unlock the door and take off.
Location doesn't matter. Cars left running and unattended have been stolen from private driveways, parking lots of apartment complexes, shopping centers and from right in front of a convenience store.
As a matter of fact it is against the law to leave a car running with the key in it and unattended. The only exception being those vehicles with remote starting devices (no keys in the ignition and steering wheel and shift lever are locked up). Need proof of this.............. please click here

Eric Jenkins - State Rep - District 18
Those Shawnee residents who live in Ward 2 are familiar with their quality city council rep, Eric Jenkins.
Eric is now running for state rep out of District 18. A highly qualified individual, Eric's public service crosses various aspects of life. He is a retired colonel in the US Army, served many years as a senior manager with FEMA, has served on the Shawnee planning commission and now the city council. I could go on and on with his qualifications, but suffice it to say he is substantially more qualified than his opponent.
His web site is at http://www.ericjenkinsforkansas.com/
On November 8th, voting for Eric is a vote for yourself.

Setting the Record Straight - Sister Cities
Some ill informed individuals have been posting items on social media about the city spending money to send some folks on a trip to our sister cities in Europe.
OK, let's set the record straight. No city (i.e. taxpayer) funds are used for these trips. The Sister Cities Committee uses donations as a partial payment for these trips. Participants representing the city have to pay the difference out of their own pockets. Spouses have to pay 100% of their expenses.

I'm A Bully --- And Fathers Are A Protected Class
Had an interesting thing happen to me last Sunday.
While standing in the parking lot of a grocery store a woman came up to me and accused me of being a bully because I have attacked Councilmember Jeff Vaught. She asked why and I replied that as long as I disagreed with things he has said or done, that I would voice my opinions. He is an elected official and his actions are subject to public scrutiny. She seemed to think that he was in a protected class as she repeated that I should remember "he is a father". Well so am I. She was informed that as long as he continued to say and/or do things that I disagreed with, I would continue to voice my opinion. Her response...."...that is what I thought you would say because that is the type of person you are."
I believe this lady probably needs a remedial lesson in civics 101. No elected official is exempt from criticism based on their parental status. But maybe she doesn't read newspapers, watch TV news and/or documentaries, or see political commercials.
Many consider what I do a service, since many Shawnee residents don't attend council or council committee meetings. As a matter of fact I wonder, has this lady ever attended a council meeting? Or maybe multiple meetings? If she did, she would have seen Vaught on many occasions belittle members of the public and even his fellow council members. And as for bullying, well, he has a history of attempting to bully (not just convince) members of the council to agree with his viewpoint.
He casts aspersions starting with his signature statement of how he can't understand how folks can't agree with him.
Oh well, such is life.
