Geoff,
I did not know that Fathers could be part of the PTA, too. Just did some research about the…Read More PTA and am now a little wiser on the Subject. Since your a member of the PTA, have you thought about registering your School with the Coke Rewards program? They allow members to donate points to Schools and out of every school in Newark the only one registered with them is St Edwards. Basically people go to the MyCokeRewards website and input the codes found on the caps and receive points then can use those points to redeem rewards or donate supplies to Schools. It's an interesting Program, if you have some time you should check it out! It's a way to lessen the burden of limited funds for the next school year.
I'd suggest working thru the Principal at NMHS with less speculation. I too was involved with PTA,…Read More Newark Schools Fdn, Jaycees and other non-profits. Best practices are that the one handling, depositing money not also be the one keeping books. A great volunteer shouldnt be put under suspicion without there being group neglect. By-laws and an active Board can cleanup this miscommunication. The school Principal is the MOD.
The more likely explanation is that the vast majority of Newark Police officers lack the requisite…Read More aptitude & agility necessary to fill shopping bags with groceries & didn't want to do anything to further embarrass themselves while under the scrutiny of the bewildered shoppers like James.

Mona,
Why do you have to keep bringing up Politics? Gah! I was just asking Mike a question, it's…Read More called Conversation. If you MUST know, I have a rousing suspicion that our paths have crossed in the past and if he's the same Mike Bucci who lived on Toulouse back in the 90's, then it would confirm that he is indeed the same guy I suspect he is.
Thanks James!,
You know it's amazing when somebody puts their own personal time to learn and…Read More understand something and then you share it... I would have been more then glad to explained myself in more detail face-to-face because I may learn something myself but like a marriage you don't get on here and start posting every little detail about you and your wife and I'm not going to get on here and start posting every little detail about my past employer`s.
So to whoever flagged me you could have simply posted a disagreement and I'm open-minded and can admit when I make a mistake...I would've simply deleted my post if you could've proved it wrong.

UPDATE! Just got a call this morning from a neighbor of the man who owned them. The gentleman died…Read More Mon or Tues and the poor dogs hadn't been well taken care of for years - slept outside, no affection, etc. Long story short - the neighbor wants to adopt them! YAY! <3
