What in the hell is going on around here?

What in the hell is going on around here?
Background for the un-initiated:

November 2010 saw Francisco Rivero elected on platform of transparency and reform with the help of an indicted pot grower and a character assassination blog. Not quite our proudest day but not as bad as some other days. Actually the jury is still out on this one so stay tuned.
Francisco didn't like anything or anyone remotely associated with the former Sheriff so he set out wiping the slate clean by changing the deputies uniforms, destroying the Office of Emergency Services, firing volunteer reserves, demoting some officers and promoting others, taking away correctional officers guns and coffee then giving them a cartoon badge, unplugging the kitchen at the Lowerlake substation,alienating every other law enforcement agency in this county and those of neighboring Mendocino, picking fights with local government officials and squabbling with the state and the county over courthouse security which it turned out wasn't his call.

And then things got weird.

TV and Radio

Today idiot point one is gonna have another Sheriff Francis show!

The show starts at 5 p.m. so set your radio dial and listen in while to see if the announcer stands back and lets the Sheriff use the public airwaves for his personal PR outlet, again. The best part is that Francis' blog minions will all get on their phones and make sure the 'correct story' is the only one the listeners hear. Amazingly not a single opposing voice or even a hard question makes it on the air during most of Francis' radio appearances. Will tonight be any different?

Its almost as if somebody is protecting Francis' delicate ears so he isn't offended by any substantive critiques. Some of us call that a snowjob or something that rhymes with snowjob.

I used to donate to KPFZ but once it became clear that the station was a wholly owned subsidiary of Francis blathers Inc I used that money to buy some catnip, now that's entertainment!

Yesterday before Francis got to go on the air  during Steve's show and congratulate himself for a while they got a call from Lakeport's mayor Suzanne Lyons who wanted to complain for while about how she came back from vacation and the city had gotten stuff done without her. She didn't know that a new Police Chief had been installed or that the City offices are now closed on Fridays.

I wonder if she knew the new bathrooms were done?

Suzanne should read the news or maybe not call the radio when she wakes up from her stupors  because she came off like a complete ignoramus and insinuated that 'certain' people on the council were doing things behind her back.

Of course Roy is pretty much of a slimy snake and he probably had something to do with the mysterious goings on at the City. Roy gives potato chip salesmen a bad name! I'll never trust another potato chip after watching his shenanigans.

Okay, I'll admit it. I happen to think community radio and PEG TV are both good things. Sometimes they do some whack shit.
The local cable channel last night aired a program all about how to clandestinely grow pot.

No kidding.

The show is about how to hide your grows and stuff. "Use a public computer to order your grow equipment" and "don't drive your own car to the grow store" are a couple of the gems contained in the educational program. PEG stands for Public, Education and Government  programming so I guess this is the educational component.
No wonder I can never get on the library computer to look at porn anymore! That sucks.
