Unplowed ... Unshocked

Here's what Rose McLarin, a bank audit specialist from Mayfair, said in an email about the lack of plowing in the city:

"No big surprise, once again Harbison Avenue and Frankford Avenue are unplowed – both are snow emergency routes – neither road has even seen a salt truck. Since Street has been mayor the only time I saw a snow plow that didn’t take 24-48 hours to show up was when I was able to use a channel 10 link to send the city managing director an email. Isn’t it interesting that the politicians all have nice clear streets to drive down – not so for the rest of us poor tax payers – all we get is the shaft once again."

......And this surprises you how??? "Mr" Street is the worst thing to happen to Philadelphia since Mayor Goode!

I once called city hall to ask why my street wasn't plowed (And when did they plan to come by)........and do you know what the clock-watching phone monkey told me?, "If you don't like it, move!..." So i did! It was the BEST decision i EVER made!
