Get up at 5 AM. Get the kids up. Get on I-95 by 6:30 AM. Drop the kids off at two different Arlington schools. Drive around in a pick up truck for hours making sure the contractors are doing what they are supposed to do, almost always they are. Pick the kids up at school and drive home to PW County. If a contractor wants to give me a few bucks as a Christmas gift, so what? You think anyone is looking over the County Board's shoulders to see who's picking up the tab when they travel on junkets to the sisters cities?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963208964879498427.post-45434875150797105332011-12-26T19:45:48.306-05:002011-12-26T19:45:48.306-05:00I give restaurant gift cards to the media.
