Oh Yeah, That reminds me...

What the hell is an "assistant Mayor Pro-Tem?" I mean, isn't the Mayor Pro-Tem designed to be a supporting position (assistant) to the mayor in times when the city's top dog can't be at a baby kissing or a ground breaking, or whatever? Then why on earth would the mayor's assistant need an assistant? Isn't that like hiring a cook to cook for your cook? Or getting a "spare" spare tire at the tire store? Everywhere you look in Lancaster there's some nonsense but this takes the cake! Appointing a second mayor pro tem because the one you voted in may not be able to attend the meetings that the mayor can't attend! What the hell is that? I think the counsel just made up this nonsense up to appease someone with aspirations of future leadership. (Sound familiar Clyde?)

Which brings up an interesting new dynamic in Lancaster. The make believe realm of fictitious positions. I wanna play!!! My first appointment is, of course, to appoint myself as senior magistrate over future appointees( my mom will be so proud...). Now... to the serious business of making up positions. I want to appoint the guy that fills pot holes in Lancaster as the senior director of municipal improvements. The person that runs the library as the executive adviser to anyone that chooses to seek a librarian for advise. Let's get Rona Stringfellow an assistant for her assistant's assistant, you know, just to make sure we're deep in the planning department like a good NFL team should be in receivers. For counsel, a junior and senior vice president over counsel chamber door noise suppression and cell phone "No No" remindings.
Now, we have to support LISD. How about, an assistant vice-chair to the committee to reinforce and re support nonsense. Headed by Larry of course and under direct supervision of the finance department...Oops, seems they're cleaning house over there. Sorry folks, make that the ...cosmetic...Oh, they're in trouble too...well we'll find someplace safe for our new and important vice-chairs to call home.Maybe we can pay them in pixy dust and sing joyous songs of unity in the summer rain! that is, after everyone finishes their reading assignments.
