Phoenix LXXIX: This is The End, We Hope Not

[Evil Doctor]

A stick tap, hat tip, or homage to CF for pointing this speaker to the financials 11, 12, and 13.

Own of our own to one of our own it seems.

Bloody hell, we're being referenced at council meetings? Great, now I have to put on clothes when I'm on here...

From the minutes...

"Ladies and gentlemen of the council, Mr. Mayor... I would like to read to you something that is making its way across the internet at a break neck speed. Something that will one day be seen in the same importance as the American Constitution. I would like to read what will here forth be known as "The List"".

I got goose bumps!

That sounds so eloquent.

CF gets to sit in the front seat because he's a good guy at sports

Plus he likes to show off his loafers, and the fact he isnt wearing any socks with em.

 

[OttawaRoughRiderFan*]

That sounds so eloquent.

Thank you. I JUST came up with it.

 

[saskriders]

What is the list?

 

[aqib]

OK I finally caught up. Did my boy Arthur Thurston speak?

 

[OttawaRoughRiderFan*]

What is the list?

A List of prediction provided by the most handsome of posters. It is remarkably accurate!!!

...and by accurate, he means not at all...

I don't know, Kevy... I was going to answer along the lines of "Similar to Santa's... equal in full of wishness and almost equally unattainable"

 

[Killion]

I though this was very eloquent...

Well said by you. Well thought out by them.

and the use of the words "sin" & "venial". I like words like that.
2:19 in, this lady knows how to say "sin". With mustard Kevy:

Guys!!! Another poster is actually interested in "The List". That doesn't happen every day. Don't ruin it!!!

Excellent. Now, are they aware that he's an Attorney, hyper-sensitive to things like plagiarism n' whatnot?... ask poor Slashers here about using material without permission and even with a "hat tip" in acknowledging source.... this speaker, the one who quoted CF; look like he's got any dough? Well dressed? What kinda watch? Rolex?

Where's Mesa???

LOL! Yuck! It's enough to push me into the priesthood.

 

[Wingsfan2965*]

I'm still confused as to whether or not something important is actually happening...

 

[CasualFan]

Uh, CF, you watching this?

I missed it.

 

[OttawaRoughRiderFan*]

I missed it.

Well done CF having your name in the minutes for the CoG meeting this evening.

Good for you, buddy. Well done.

 

[Major4Boarding]

I missed it.

We'll have to get the link to the video up as expeditiously as possible for you (probably Thursday)

 

[Donwood]

Good thing Glendale 11 has repeats the meetings over and over and over

 

[wunderpanda]

I'm still confused as to whether or not something important is actually happening...

seems the CoG passed the budget with the 6 million for arena

 

[Killion]

Where's Mesa???

... dont think so. He passed out into his Gigante' Sized Margarita
glass coupla hours ago. Guess I should check, make sure hasnt drowned.

 

[OttawaRoughRiderFan*]

Kings just beat the Sharks.

 

[MNNumbers]

seems the CoG passed the budget with the 6 million for arena

I saw a post further up about this. Is this the right interpretation? Final budget for the year, and 6M for the Arena?

 

[Major4Boarding]

What all the hub-bub is about was whether or not there was going to be a last minute rescinding of the tentative budget (despite an extremely unfavorable timeline to do so). To me, and I only speak for myself, if that were to have occured (despite that timeline) it would have opened the door of speculation that the Council was going to find ways to extract more monies from the budget to allocate to a higher AMF than the $6.5M or even $8M.

It didn't happen. The changes that could be made from here on out are those lateral to what those allocations are marked, or less, per Sherry Schurhammer, Executive Director of Financial Services - Glendale. Everyone voted "Aye" except Sherwood and Alvarez (Yes, Norma!) voted "Nay" to adopting the Tentative Budget. Now before people get carried away... their Nay votes stem around allocations for Public Safety. IMO, Norma wants more, Sherwood wasn't happy about what took place at the April 26th meeting as to his reason for voting no.

You be the judge when the video/minutes are made available.

Yes. Of course, that's a max, and every peso not spent on arena can be spent elsewhere...
