Peanut Butter Thursday's "Mack Attack"

Here it is, that time of week again. Peanut butter and jelly Thursday and here I am having a "Mack Attack". That is not to be confused with that big M sandwich of a similiar name....

I had cereal for breakfast, not that you really care, but with so many things on my plate today it seemed like a good way to save time. Now it is lunch time and I am kinda zoned out dreaming of food...

Lettuce, onion, pickle on a sesame seed....

Ha! The only lettuce we see today is strictly the imaginary green stuff. Money, money, money. Come to think of it, our latest generation of township business administrator was a lawyer from Atlantic City or thereabouts who came on board the Mack transition team (at no pay) and stayed to carry on for Bill Guhl....until his firm was in line for a no-bid contract for legal services right up to this week's Council meeting whereapon Mayor Mack opined it would be "foolish" to award the $50,000 plus contract to the Atlantic City firm of Cooper Levenson. I think we are now looking for the next generation of township administrator...

Onion...ahhh fresh pungent sliced onion that makes you weep. Just like this present City Hall. Not only does it make you cry, but the smell just does not go away.

Pickle...c'mon do you really think we are in a pickle? Not only have we been heat cured but now the salty shenanigans of our duly elected representatives have us in a perilous position where Her Clerkness, Ms. Staton, may sue Mayor Mack for a job she got used to, if only for a couple of weeks, and that is going to be defended at our expense. How 'bout that. She works, he squawks, she walks, he crows...and we are all going to pay the attorney fees. At least the Atlantic City guys are out of the picture...or are they going to sue His Honor too?

Sesame seed. The only sesame we have here is wishful thinking as in,

"Open Sesame!"

And we are, all waiting for that magical mountain to crash open and divulge glowing streams of golden funding Federal-wise and treasure chests of silver spilling out of our sterling State bonanza. Ahhh. Right about now we cannot get this genie back into his bottle.

I cannot believe that this new Mayor has been in office a matter of weeks and already we have become front page news for almost every minute of that time. The election was the middle of June and it is only August 12.

Fox news tonight happened to cover Camden luncheon costs for the Delaware Valley Port Authority. I have to check my notes but I think that was the group...and they were running over $400.00 for sandwiches to discuss development in Camden. I am not commenting on their business concerning development in the city of Camden instead of their care of Delaware bridges and ports. But their menu charges? If they were having peanut butter and jelly, even if they had croissants instead of whole wheat, they could have saved 75 percent, including tips.

Mr. Christie....Governor Christie, let's put it in the Constitution. Make every Thursday "Peanut Butter and Jelly Thursday" for all State Business!

People rock.
