I do hope we all agree #7 is what we are talking about when we use the word "Visionary." I am kind of tired of all of the other definitions.

You have to remember you are on the Lakewood Board, not the Parma Board(coming this spring).

We are not talking about the Visionary Buffoon at the bus stop on Pearl, who bet it all on the lottery.

But thanks for jumping into Lakewood politics, only a couple months to wait.

Tick, tick, tick...

i don't understand why you give kampe a hard time about posting here because he lives in parma. you love to remind people that the LO is on the world wide web, how people from all around the globe can access it in all it's glory. you even don't mind out of towners endorsing our mayor. but some guy a couple of neighborhoods over gets flack for what? because he doesn't shine the bobblehead's shoes? i don't get it, jim. i thought this open source thingy applied to all.

Maybe once the Parma board goes up, all of us from Lakewood can invade it.

This is on the Worldwide web, only because we have not created the Lakewood Wide Web yet.

Let me just say that I believe that Dr. Kampe and my relationship is very close to what you and I share.

But while you bring it up. This is not "open source." Open source is just another buzz word like "blog." What we have created here, the first in the country, is what we call "Civic Source." The difference is night and day. At the same time, no post by Dr. Kampe has ever been edited or thrown away. He, like all of us become framed by our words, actions and deeds.

That said, I love Dennis' comments, as it gives us insight how EVERYONE in Parma thinks and acts.

JOB and others

My "target' is your best buddy - djk

I take my shots at Parma pols , school boards etc thru Parma SunPost and the like . More global issues - Ohio , USA , "world" are directed to PD and their editorial board . My posts on LO site are ONLY Wood-Parma related . Just like earlier comments re my lack of complete sentences - and the equivalent - "Gross Business signs on Bunts" - Do you think I really care about either ?

What George and Fitzgerald etc do - is your - (y'all ) business . My only comment in this area is " Hopefully whomever wins is not a denny clone ".

I realize I am NOT a founding member of the self appointed LO police/mafia whose "aim" seems to be to tell non locals to go back to whatever hole you crawled out of . Again Do you think I really care about these types of "criticisms" ?

Since your good bud djk shares his "wealth" both inside Lakewood and in the un-cultured surrounding areas - what he does or doesn't do/achieve affects us ALL not just LO residents / posters .

I fear you might have pulled the dlk Hammer a little to early on this thread.

But thanks for keeping us up to date on your feelings for your elected official, Congressman Kucinich.

Yes - my "understanding or lack their of about your first post was : djk related vs others interpretation of local mayoral race candidates .

As such - my response was djk targetted vs your / others? George/Fitzgerald tie in.

If djk then third consecutive topic on "him" - and probably his head/ego would be / is swelling to accommodate this recent LO surge of publicity .

If others then I will return to feeding my pink flamingos and leave this topic to the locals .

Please make sure your white soxs are pulled up as well.

You could set your "my google alert" to Lakewood + Observer + "Dennis Kucinich" and it will email when ever we post our Congressman's name.

Just to save you some of that special fire you reserve for us in Lakewood and our Congressman.
