MONDAY'S HUM (4-3-06)

FIRST KISS
Hot time in the old town tonight. New mayor Bob Kiss will be sworn in and councilors will take the oath of office. Post time is 7 at Contois Auditorium. Heard on the street: "Wouldn't it be ironic if Kiss was late getting to the ceremony on account of car problems caused by hitting a GIANT FREAKING BURLINGTON POTHOLE!!

FIRST BASEBALL - THEN HOOPS - THEN BACK TO BASEBALL
What a day for sports nuts, eh? Sox first up at 2 with Schilling on the mound. NCAA finals at 9 and then RJ and the Yanks are on ESPN2 at 10. Better make that a 30 pack!

COPS OUT
Today is the start of Operation Get Em', which of course is our own name for the increased patrols by the state police on 89 near Winooski. The idiot driver quotient is especially high on the Winooski River Bridge and the stateys are going to be watching like hawks. HUM around the county seems to be in favor of this special mission except for some complaints from, well... IDIOT DRIVERS!

SCUDDERLESS
South Burlington Dems trotting out gubernatorial candidate Scudder Parker at the Marcotte School Thursday evening. There is just about zero HUM regarding Parker; many are saying the Dems should get real and select somebody who can WIN! We can only pray it wouldn't be The Logger, 'cuz a lot of folks 'round here are just about logged out.

NO PULSE
Hey, here's a funny. Imagine if Steel Pulse came to town and nobody showed up.
The Free Press reports that Steel Pulse has bagged out again and will play (sure) Higher Ground on July 23. And if you believe that I've got some swampland in Milton I'll let you have - real cheap!

FIVE CORNERS UPDATE
Got to the Essex Junction Five Corners light yesterday and knew I'd be there a while. So I got out and was able to rotate the tires and have'em all back on just when the light turned green. It was perfect and I felt so productive.
