We are in a budget crises in this city, but where is the Advocate's reporting on this? <BR/><BR/>I am resigned that Mayor Dannel Malloy will continue to do what he does best, nothing. Instead of cutting the city payroll, delaying promotions, and pay increases, he raises our taxes . . . on houses that have lost value. <BR/><BR/>But where is the Advocate's reporting? Where is the Advocate in examining the fiscal mess we are in. Next year, knowing Dannel Malloy, our taxes will go sky high. He should cut the payroll by at least 10%.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481685117023521386.post-4658994142562189752008-07-28T20:50:00.000-04:002008-07-28T20:50:00.000-04:00ST,I have on good accord knowledge that Vince McMa...ST,I have on good accord knowledge that Vince McMahon, the WWE guy, bought the Penthouse at Trump Tower.

Although after a couple years of this, can you imagine trying to re-label and or re-organize 600 posts? I bet it would be tempting to delete some of the less important ones. I'll worry about that in a year.<BR/> <BR/>I had to google who Vince McMahon is- does he own a Trump condo?

The Advocate ...It’s less nefarious than you think. The Advocate is doing a series it seems on all the projects slated or in construction that are transforming Stamford. Today is the headline is on the trolley. See, BlogStamford is like getting your newspapers 3 months early. <BR/><BR/>What history is Stamford trying to preserve? There are a handful of historic building still around after more sweeping urban development in the 60’s-70’s. None of those buildings are endangered by recent development, only empty lots and crumbling, ugly buildings.JThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17955997796680398909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481685117023521386.post-9588564752170682332008-07-28T09:13:00.000-04:002008-07-28T09:13:00.000-04:00I saw that headline (and the Greenwich Time) one t...I saw that headline (and the Greenwich Time) one too...I wonder if the Trump organization has any pull with the paper?
