Why I don't like it when politicians visit the QC...

hey at least it was only for two hours!

Here in Fairport, NY they are widening the main E-W street through our area. This has been going on all summer.

They also decided it was time to do maintance on the main bridge over the Erie Canal, right in the middle of Fairport - so it has been locked in the up position all month (on the main N-S road).

but that wasnt enough - they decide to pave the only other E-W road through town this last week, closing it completely.

If a natural catastrophy had closed the main roads and took out the bridge then our town would be declared a disaster area

but the town / county decided to this was somehow a good idea. The least they could have done was send us all to the Outer Banks of N.C. for the month!

Several years ago, we were on our way from Indiana to the outer banks of North Carolina. Our route took us through Cincinnati. President Clinton was scheduled to land at the Cincy airport that day, shutting down all highways surrounding Cincinnati for 2 hours.
We were very happy to find this was a decoy - turns out Billy really landed at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, an hour north.
