— — Yes, you’re right. The North Tonawanda city attorney should have reviewed the contract with Calgon and found the problems. But the problem is there is a great lack of legal competence in that office. I’ve been there several times on different matters and if you find an attorney even in the office for work you are in shock.

It’s a shame when you have to live next to people who won’t repair or maintain their property out of sheer laziness. Well, I got news for you. If your termites infest my property, I will sue you for my damages. So you should get off your lazy backsides and take care of your problem.

Regarding the Canal Fest July 20 stabbing, get rid of the goofy rides. Just have kiddie rides and you won’t have teenaged problems on the Tonawanda side.

I haven’t been to Canal Fest for I don’t know how long. I went when it first started and I said I will never go again. It’s too crowded, kids riding in their bikes who don’t move. They stand in front of you. They are very rude and have no manners. And it’s ridiculous. With this incident that happened Tuesday, I think they should have an age limit. If you are not accompanied by an adult, you’re not allowed there.

Oh, to all you people who are trying to make the average person understand about the retirement about city employees and school employments, we know it’s a bunch of bull. We know what they do: they get their overtime and use it and use it and use it until they are going to retire. And then we have to pay them probably almost more than they are making during the year when they work. We are paying more taxes in New York state than anywhere else around. Something has to be done.
