SEPTA Strike is OVER!!

Digg this. I wake up to GOOD NEWS. The SEPTA strike is over. I thought it was an April Fools joke but here is a photo from the Philly Inquirer. Makes up for the Eagles losing to the Cowboys to me. It means 5 years untill we have deal with this nonsense again.

Life Unloading: November 2009

Still have not found the camera... SEPTA and the Union failed to reach accord on a Tentative Agreement. You know that is the first time that I remember a tentative agreement failed and of course it had to involve SEPTA. It looks like its gonna this whole week and go into next week. Glad I have Weds off from work. Speaking of work, the welfare dept can not force compliance with any of the work requirement cause there is no SEPTA. So we in the Dept just have excuse everyone who is stuck at their house and can not attend work or a work program. We will get blamed by the pencil pushers for not meeting compliance numbers. Lovely ain't it???

The election is over and darn it I am glad. Corzine lost and Magazzu won. Really not a BIG shock. Plan to stear clear of that. I hear that big Lou is threatening to sue the Independent Dems and anyone who contributed to Magazzu Watch. Man so much for freedom of speech in our little Cumberland County. I am target my energies toward stuff that will help me out.. and my home...

As for home. We are getting stuff cleared out and organized slowly but surly. It was nice warm day here in Millvile today. I think it was in the 60s or maybe 70. The photo was taken October 30Th. It was a day before the camera went missing. We are clearing the stuff from the gallery. The man who makes the honey we sold failed to show up when he said he was going to . That is pretty neat eh?? We cleared out the hallway and returned stuff out of the basement back to the original owner so we could store gallery material away.
Had a Krull birthday dinner. We had it at an overcrowded Italian restaurant in Media. My food was fine but the asparagus that my Mother and wife had was way undercooked. We were shoehorned in so that one of my brothers had to walk on chairs to go to the men's room. I did notice that there was LINE TO GET IN this place when we left. Guess the folks in Medial like this ambiance more then outsiders too. We then went to my brother's house in Media and chilled out. It was pleasant. We then went visit a friend in West Philly and snib snabed ourselves silly.
Oh yeah, our cat F (* up an amp that Steve owns. Merritt music came to the rescue. Hooray!! I cooked some steamed clams that a neighbor gave to us. I did offer to others but they declined so I will finish them up. Still working on getting rid of this cold in my throat.
Off to a new week of public transit B.S. Man both sides are jerks and they deserve each other. They are so into their pissing match they are blind of what dorks they REALLY are.

The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich

I am finishing up William Sherier's book The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich which details of how the Nazis planed the war. It tells the background of Adolf Hitler. I have been reading this while taking my bus rides.

Nice Job SEPTA TWU!!!!

Digg this. SEPTA union calls a strike at 3 AM this morning. I just found out by going online. I had thought the Gov. Rendell came in to save the day. OH that was yesterday!! Gee wiz...now I am gonna be stuck at 8th and Market this morning and well, got to get a ride downtown to get home for our birthday dinner.
How the hell do the transit workers expect folks to support them, when they pull off a sneek job like that. This photo is one of many WORKING folks who like me are standed with little time to plan. Hey, the Phillies are still alive... Here is the Article I woke up to at 5am.

SEPTA workers on strike
By Robert Moran

INQUIRER STAFF WRITER

SEPTA's largest union went on strike early this morning - crippling a transit system that averages more than 928,000 trips every weekday in the city.

The strike came after hours of negotiation Monday that ended when, according to Willie Brown, president of Transport Workers Union Local 234, both sides agreed that they had gone as far as they could go. The talks broke down shortly before midnight.

The strike began at 3 a.m. Tuesday. At that hour, all bus, subway, and trolley service in the city - as well as the Frontier Division buses in Bucks, Montgomery, and Chester counties - was stilled, not long before the busy morning commute.

Gov. Rendell called the decision to strike before dawn "irresponsible," and said the union action would cause chaos with transit riders who would not know what is happening until after they wake up.

"This is an outrageous action," said Mayor Michael Nutter, who joined Rendell last night to address reporters in the lobby of the Park Hyatt at the Bellevue, where negotiations had been under way since 10 a.m. Monday
