Crew members are Shawn Easton, Shawn McAllister and Rick Reeves.
BTW: It's might snow tonight.

I wish they would fill pot holes . Priority list should be updated . Will this be a task for our new assistant manager? His salary alone could put a huge dent in the pot hole dilemma.

I would like to know why all
I would like to know why all the benches are backwards. That is, with your back towards the street. Who wants to sit down and stare at the front of a building ?
Who wants to sit down and
Who wants to sit down and stair at somebody's passenger-side car door? The only way they're backwards is if they're facing the street.

I kind of like when they place them sideways and face to face. It makes me interact spontaneously and thankfully the people I talk to mostly ignore me and then the bus comes and the losers leave and I sit there waiting for more prey to walk up. I'm sixty, what the hell do you want from me?

Well, I guess all the benches in Oakfield are backwards then.

Oakfield has benches? When I lived in Oakfield the bums had to sleep on porches. My porch was a favorite. I had an actual bed up in a third floor flop on Pearl Street for sixty dollars a month. Fine memories and great pizza close by.
