The big local news this week is The Great Allentown Fair, and that the prosecution recommends that former mayor Pawlowski be sentenced up to 15 years.
Being a local with some carney background, it occurs to me that a dunking booth at the fair this year, featuring none other than Pawlowski himself, would be a great success. It would also give him the opportunity to earn some money for his legal appeals and other expenses. I have not passed this advice along to the Mayor, here's why... In 2006, when Pawlowski started his first of four terms as mayor, he had a big open house at Symphony Hall. Although he invited 100 people to give input suggestions for Allentown, he didn't invite me, even though I also ran that year as an independent.
There has been speculation that Cedar Beach Pool should have been moved farther away from the creek since it was being rebuilt anyway. Although the creek did spill over into the pool two storms in a row, historically, that is a rare occurrence.
Speaking of dunk tanks, that seems to have disappeared from the fair. Perhaps the insults were seen as insensitive.
ReplyDeleteAlthough my heart breaks for Ed's kids, he deserves what the prosecution is recommending. People have no idea the damage he has done to the city. Real lasting damage.The media is clueless as well.
