Couldn't make the meeting Wednesday....obviously....I was up to my elbows in grandbaby poopoo diapers (did ya'll know that they make diapers that are colored like little denim jeans??? WTFIUWT?). I asked the secretary of the Police Jury if she could put me on the emailing list for the agendas when they roll out from now on, and she did. I got an email that there was to be a "special meeting" on the 8th, and I looked and made sure that we were not somehow on that one...we weren't. It was a very short agenda for some special purpose deal that I can't even recall exactly what it was. It wasn't us, for sure.

We'll be on the 13th, and I can post the agenda here if need be. Or, at least the agenda entry regarding our issue, and it's numerical assignment. Hopefully we are at the top of the list again.

We just missed you. Smokepole and I got there about 8 minutes after 6pm and tehy ahd already gotten halfway down the agenda. Smokepole and I stayed until the meeting ended and spoke with the Lawyer (Mr Speed) and some of the Jury members. I also spoke to Bob Lang who was their guest and is running for US Senate.

yale,

I must have JUST missed you all. I hit the road right after they voted. It happened extremely fast - no Public Comment by anyone, a few words on the amended ordinance by juror Mr. Wicker, who incidentally was asking questions to make sure that the new ordinance wasn't too restrictive, a quick vote on the amended ordinance, then they were on to the next item. I would say that I was on the road at 6:04.

Clifton - the lawyer - is a really good guy. I've known him for years, and am actually distantly related to him. He's an extremely honest, hard working guy.

Did you happen to look at anything about Lang, the Senate candidate, on the internet? He sounds like a good guy, and I am quite sure he would have been very receptive to you all. He's a combat vet who touts OathKeepers.org, and calls the John Warner Defense Appropriations Act an outright assault on The Posse Comitatus Act. I didn't see him there when I was there, not that I could tell, anyway.

Thanks again, you guys!

Lang was running late. He got there right as they were finishing with the last item on the agenda. He was given the floor and spoke for a couple of minutes. The meeting adjourned and he spoke to a few other people and then left. We were on the road by 6:45 and were the last to leave, I think.
