The Martin Chronicles reminds you of that recent piece of drivel published in the Community Recorder. You remember. Villa Hills malfeasant Mayor Mike Martin chimed in with his hopes for his tiny town for 2013.
Maybe The Fidgety Forger is hoping to come to grips with Villa Hills' skyrocketing crime wave. Nope. Is The Nitwit From Norwood hoping for a revitalized street repair program? No again. Perhaps Shorty is hoping to reduce his exploding legal fees that have needlessly wasted tens of thousands of taxpayer dollars? Uh-uh. Maybe The Unlicensed Contractor hopes to finally start producing credible financial reports for the council and taxpayers to review? You're not even warm.
So what is it? Well, The Ayatollah of Phony Holy Rollahs is looking for better publicity. Yep, that's right. Shorty is hoping to paper over the absolute mess he's made over the past two years in hopes of fooling the voters yet again in just 659 days.
Martin may have just struck pay dirt in the last election. It is starting to look like new Councilwoman HBM-I is going to provide all kinds of great publicity for Shorty's Reign of Error.
A lot of folks are starting to privately-and mockingly-refer to HBM-I as Villa Hills' "Holly Boo-Boo". You already know how she inadvertently went to the civic club instead of the City Building last week. Witnesses say that by the time she realized the meeting was being held in a different location it was too many beers too late.
We have now learned that "Holly Boo-Boo" made her singing debut at the civic club last Friday night. No, the band wasn't prepared for it. But HBM-I insisted. The reviews were-too be very kind-mixed.
As one of the civic club's resident critics put it, "We've all heard that beer has taught people how to dance for years. I guess we now know it teaches them how to sing too". One drunk raised his head from the bar and yelled, "Would you tell those guys to quit steppin' on that cat's tail. The screechin' is killin' me".
Finally. Martin is surrounded by council people he can really work with. Provided they show up to the meetings.
[EDITOR'S NOTE: The first NON-SECRET MEETING of Villa Hills' new council is scheduled for this Wednesday. We are preparing our in-depth preview, report and analysis right now.]
