Man On The Street Interview #4 - Oppressive Heat

Published by Lois Lame, SSALRCYTMVDQJCP & Assistant Editor

I caught up to Quincy McGoo just as he was about to enter The Bank Bar on Schiller Street at 5:30 p.m. this evening.

Lois:  Hi, Mr. McGoo!  Guess you're headin' inside for a couple cold ones, eh?
Mr. McGoo:  Yeah, yeah, yeah.  You betcha!  Gotta cool down!
Lois:  Sure has been a scorcher!
Mr. McGoo:  Oh yeah, yeah!  Hotter than hell!  Think it hit 98° F this afternoon
Lois:  Can I buy you a beer, Mr. McGoo?!
Mr. McGoo:  Oh yeah, yeah sure!  Sure you can, sweetie!
Lois:  Let's continue our discussion inside where it's cool!
Mr. McGoo:  Sounds great, sweetie!
Lois:  Hi Wayne!  Give Mr. McGoo his usual, and I'll have a Bud Light!
Mr. McGoo:  Oh, oh, OK.  Thank ya sweetie!
Lois:  Mr. McGoo, I'm Lois Lame from Hermann Hearsay.  I'd like to interview you for our 'Man On The Street Interview' feature.  In this case, I suppose we'll have to call it our 'Man In The Bar Interview'!
Mr. McGoo:  Oh, oh, oh, glad to oblige!
Lois:  I'd like to ask you what you do to stay cool in the kind of oppressive heat and humidity we've been having?
Mr. McGoo:  Oh, oh, oh, I drink my beer out of a frosty mug, and I don't go home to my apartment which doesn't have A/C until midnight when things have cooled down a bit.  That means I get to drink one frosty mug after another from 5 or 6 p.m. until midnight.  That's 6 - 7 hours of cold beer drinkin'.
Lois:  Wow!  That's a lot of drinkin', Mr. McGoo!  You must spend $25 every night on beer! 
Mr. McGoo:  $30 to be exact!
Lois:  So you spend about $900 per month on beer?  Is that right?
Mr. McGoo:  I don't know.  I never added it all up, sweetie!
Lois:  30 days per month times $30 per day.  That's $900 in a month, Mr. McGoo!
Mr. McGoo:  Oh, oh, I suppose you're right, sweetie!
Lois:  Mr. McGoo, you could have air-conditioning installed in your apartment for that kind of money!
Mr. McGoo:  Oh, oh,  I see what you're sayin', sweetie!
Lois:  I want you to call my HVAC guy tomorrow and get an estimate for installing air-conditioning in your apartment.  Here's one of his business cards.  You give him a call!
Mr. McGoo:  Oh, oh, thank you sweetie!
Lois:  You're very welcome, Mr. McGoo!
Mr. McGoo:  Wayne, give us another round ...... and some fresh frosty mugs too!

BONUS: 2nd Laugh Of The Day - Tuesday, 6/22/2010

Published by Jimmy Oldsun, NDRIRSRWRAFTC & Editor

Gasconade County Southern District Associate Commissioner Jerry D. Lairmore puffed out his chest and confidently proclaimed during a long exchange with Chuck Lewis, owner of Central Tire Company, on the subject of credits for tire casings .....

"I think it's a good idea to try to track this stuff and try to get the money back for the county."  ~ Jerry D. Lairmore, Southern Disrict Associate Commissioner of Gasconade County

For years, Jerry Lairmore has evidently never bothered to take a close look at the county's tire and tire service bid package or invoices received from the tire suppliers which contract with the county.  At least that is what he would have the citizens of the county believe.  Now, after a year during which Chuck Lewis and Central Tire Company has provided tires and tires services ..... and credits for used tire casings, something which Jost Tire Company oddly never did, "Jerry The Joker" would have you believe that he is suddenly the "Champion of Casing Credits" and that he has a better way to track casing credits and tire disposal fees for the county.  Lairmore puffs and spins and talks and blows, and in the final analysis, that's all he really is ...... a BIG WINDBAG!

On the first Tuesday in November, 2012, VOTE FOR CANDIDATE 'X' and send Jerry Lairmore back to the private sector!

P.S.  I really love my little Olympus Digital Voice Recorder!  A great little gadget to have around when the politicians begin posturing and prevaricating!

HEAT ALERT! Charlie Farquaharson Issues Warning!

Published by Charlie Farquharson, Weekend Weather Reporter

Folks, I was down at the Peoples Savings Bank in Hermann at 1:15 p.m.  (Yep, you guessed it!  I was over-drawn again!)  Well, at that time, the thermometer had already hit 96° F.  The humididity is stiflin'!  Like bein' in a steam bath out in the middle of the Arizona desert!  It's so hot today I swear you could fry an egg on the hood of your car or pickup truck!

I'm putting out this emergency HEAT ALERT to warn all you senior citizens to stay inside.  If you're worried about your utility bill, DON'T you fret none!  It costs a whole lot more to expire from a heat stroke than it does to run your air conditioner!  Pre-arrangement services down at Toedtmann & Grosse Funeral Home can run you anywhere from $10,000 to $20,000 dependin' on how many flowers you want!  So keep that thermostat set at a nice cool 72° F and enjoy the A/C!

For Hermann Hearsay, this is Charlie Farquharson signin' off and wishin' you a mighty fine Tuesday!

Laugh Of The Day - Tuesday, 6/22/2010

Published by Jimmy Oldsun, NDRIRSRWRAFTC & Editor

During the June 17 County Commission Meeting, when asked by Chuck Lewis, owner of Central Tire Company in Owensville, whether or not Gasconade County had ever received tire casing credits from other tire companies (other than Central Tire which currently holds the tire contract with the county), Jerry Lairmore was quick to respond .....

"I can't, I can't answer that."  ~ Jerry Lairmore, Southern District Associate Commissioner of Gasconade County                                             

Oh c'mon now Jerry!  Don't make me laugh!  As Southern District Associate Commissioner of Gasconade County, you should know the answer to Mr. Lewis' question.  As a matter of fact, I venture to say that you, Presiding Commissioner Ron Jost and County Clerk Lesa Lietzow ALL know the answer to his question.  I venture to say that you know (just like Chuck Lewis, Northern District Associate Commissioner Matt Penning and I know) that Jost Tire Company, the other tire supplier which has held the county contract during previous years, has never paid out a tire casing credit to Gasconade County.  You went on to claim that you didn't even know that used tire casings have any residual value.  Pathetic!  And from someone like you who has had previous experience in the retail tire business! 

Mr. Lairmore, shall we all clench our teeth at your feigned ignorance or shall we just laugh in your face?!  Ha ha ha!  Mr. Lairmore, if you really don't know the details of county business, you really should dig into them.  That's what the citizens of the southerm district have hired you to do.  You appear foolish and uninformed when you say "I can't answer that.", especially when the subject is something you should know about.  If you do know what is going on with respect to the county's tire contract, don't hedge or feign ignorance.  The citizens of the county won't tolerate it!

P.S.  I really love our new Olympus Model VN-6000 Digital Voice Recorder.  It catches everything!
