April 2014 – Page 2 – The online location for Vernon J

It had been startling and disappointing to me to find out that story books had been written by people, that books were not natural wonders, coming up of themselves like grass. Yet regardless of where they came from, I cannot remember a time when I was not in love with them—with the books themselves, cover and binding and the paper they were printed on, with their smell and their weight and with their possession in my arms, captured and carried off to myself. Still illiterate, I was ready for them, committed to all the reading I could give them.

My letter to Anne & the PSC.

I would encourage you to write YOUR elected officials as well.

Good afternoon Anne.

I’m writing to you because you have expressed your opinion & displeasure with companies recruiting employees.

The companies are reaching out to see if there is a market for their services.

Looking at the response of readers & social media there is one.

I am an alternative transportation guy. I ride my bike, I ride Metro, I walk, & I get rides with associates & have paid them money to provide that service.

I have also on occasion (twice) taken a jitney to a location.

I say you give the new companies a fair chance to succeed.

Now I’ve been on the PSC website & can’t see a place to download or apply for a license.

I also heard you are considering raising rates in the 5% range for the current taxi fare structure. Which is all the more reason we need additional operator’s in the state.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me.

Good Morning & Happy Friday,

Party in the back, although you’ll have to see the back to know the partiness of it.

Today is Friday 04/25/V3.4 & it is Tammy’s Birthday. Happy Birthday Tammy.

Is Fergie’s London Bridge code for pants? Let me know, cause that’s what it sounds like.

The word of the day is rile which is to irritate or vex.

What is going on tonight? What do you want to do? Who do you wanna see?

I don’t know what I want to do. I don’t know who I wanna see?

Quotes from the World for April 25th

For proverbs are the pith, the proprieties, the proofs, the purities, the elegancies, as the commonest so the commendablest phrases of a language. To use them is a grace, to understand them a good.
