Here I am, cooling my heels and other body parts in the city council chamber, waiting for Herroner, Laura Miller, to show up so that the council can debate Leo Chaney's Park of Heroes.

Only she's not due back till 6, looks like.

It's 4:39 p.m. I believe this is a ruse to allow this very extremely awkward issue to lapse until a new council is seated after the upcoming mayoral election. I can see the wisdom in that from their point of view. But, speaking as a citizen, taxpayer and human being, I resent being diddled. --Jim Schutze
