Sungold: Happy Monday
Sungold: I did not hear how that slide went on Saturday?
Sungold: I did not see much in the paper.

onion_grower: Too bad you opened KCNR in Redding. You would have made a lot of money in Reno or Carson city. Congratulations to Reno for 47 National Merit Semi-finalists. Fallon had one, probably the kid of a Naval Aviator at Top Gun school.
Sungold: My Italian relatives in San Francisco bay area called it Bott- Chi Ball
Intentional: my nephew was on his way to the psychic fair...I told him I could do his reading...he said great(with a smirk) I told him that I saw money in his future within the next 14 days...if he went and got a job instead of going to the psychic fair
ProducerBadBob: Buying a broadcast license in a market the size of Reno, even if one were available, would be a rather staggering amount of money up front.
onion_grower: Losing money investing in Redding is bad idea.
ProducerBadBob: With respect, I don't agree with that attitude. If this town is such a failure for you...then....
ProducerBadBob: It's very easy to complain, more of a challenge to try to improve matters, but that's just my outlook.
onion_grower: Anselmo lost a few million on his winery. When you consider the multiplier effect, at least 3 to 1, the Shasta county economy lost at least ten million. And Larry Lees still has his job and incredible pay and pension.
Sungold: Anselmo was not totally blameless for his loss of money. He did not like the way Shasta Co operated and said that many times, He was a bit of a rebel. We liked him and had many conversations with he and Chicken
onion_grower: Macy's will announce the 100 closings in January. If Macys, Sears and K-mart go the way of Mervyns, Moss, 84 Lumber, and so many more, it would change the way people think.
Sungold: I agree with you Bob about the attitude of the town. Instead of complaining, do something if even for you little corner of your neighborhood. It is what we do, we work on our little corner of the world to make it better for everyone.
Sungold: One can get out and volunteer for so many organizations...it all helps!
onion_grower: I like to brag about the success of Capitalism. Reno, Carson Sparks really shows what good government can do.
onion_grower: Cumulus media stock has lost over 90% in the last ten years. You can probably buy KCNR for cheap when Carl retires.
ProducerBadBob: ^,o
onion_grower: Don't try to catch a falling knife.
onion_grower: My main question for all the candidates and politicians: How long until the jail expansion opens for business with measure D?
onion_grower: Measure D is the worst bait and switch swindle. It will never have enough money for the jail expansion. City staff will plunder all the money for things which only add to the unfunded pension liability crisis.
ProducerBadBob: So so are you tying the mismanagement of Cumulus Media with the value of KCNR-AM?
ProducerBadBob: how are

Mohamed: 4 a moment I thought you meant Onioin Grower
Intentional: chickens make great house pets also... we can send over 6 or 8 and you can keep them in the house...
Mohamed: Chickens make great pets, and they taste great
ProducerBadBob: And the coyotes and foxes just love them...
Mohamed: I updating to a newer win 10.. first I ownloaded the update, then it checked it and now it's getting it ready??? So much hoo haaa
Mohamed: I can't stand this Johnson guy
ProducerBadBob: the Anniversary Update has been said to be causing some issues for certain users. Ditto for the latest iOS update for apple devices. MS's habit of cramming updates down your throat is irritating at the least.
Mohamed: I think
Mohamed: Trump
Mohamed: is going to make some blue states Red
onion_grower: The LA Times and Chron endorsed 64, recreational marijuana. The Bee today came out against it. I think the Bee is trying to finess advertising from both sides.
Mohamed: No thankyou please, I don't smokit no . No thankyou please, it only makes me sneeze
Mohamed: 78% to being ready
onion_grower: I was really shocked by the Bee. Trying to figure a motive.
Mohamed: Jerry smokes it
onion_grower: I expect recreational marijuana to win 60% of the vote state wide and get less than 40% in Shasta county.
SYSTEM: Please welcome NoSmokeItNoMo who just joined the chat.
NoSmokeItNoMo: The chat is working strange.. changed my name and no notification
NoSmokeItNoMo: 81% to blast off
Intentional: is there any other Measure or Proposition that should be a 'YES' vote besides prop 53 ?
NoSmokeItNoMo: Our government workers do not need a raise
NoSmokeItNoMo: We might be better off to have the Sheriffs department handle Redding and replace the police. Sheriffs work for less
Intentional: oh my... and I think you are beautiful and special and very kewl and precious and you have great hair and teeth and and and...Really ?
NoSmokeItNoMo: Thank U
Carl: Prop 61
Intentional: Prop 61 and prop 53
NoSmokeItNoMo: Just reduce all these high priced regs and we will stimulate the economy
NoSmokeItNoMo: someone wants to add a 1000 sq ft add on to their existing house and the city wants 27 thousand for the permit...Please Please Please
Intentional: light bulb just flashed... saw an advertisement for some new shoes that a man or a woman could wear and realized the two models wearing them were very androgynous, we can't ask people what they are anymore and you can't tell by which bathroom they use... but the new fad has them wearing facial hair.
NoSmokeItNoMo: We only have one council person that is not tax and spend. I fear that after the election the citizens will blunder and all the council will be fools
Intentional: .. they can wear man buns, skinny jeans and man purses...but with facial hair we get a Hint
Intentional: think about the LOTTO....did all that money go to education...YES but they removed money from the general budget to fund their agenda in other areas
Intentional: is she really this naive ? or is this her price for joining the team ?
Intentional: even without measure E it would be political and local suicide to use any money wrong
Intentional: whats her plan for jail beds even if it does pass !!!!!
NoSmokeItNoMo: We need to reduce costs and that will take juggling things
Intentional: CORE FUNCTION>>>>BALANCE THE BUDGET !!!
NoSmokeItNoMo: simple answers will not do
Intentional: 5th highest paid police department in the NATION... I know...we need to give raises and throw more money at this...not address the problem
NoSmokeItNoMo: I say fire the cops and hire some hit men to clean up our streets
Intentional: will someone check to see if there is fairy dust falling from the studio ceiling ?
Intentional: 5th highest paid police department in the NATION... I know...we need to give raises and throw more money at this...not address the problem
NoSmokeItNoMo: Change the city name from Redding to Dodge City
Intentional: I like paoletti....but it may be obvious that he is the wrong guy for the job... we need to get the job done with what we have...he is a 'within' the box guy, by the book and no creativity
NoSmokeItNoMo: Where is Wyatt Earp when you need him?
Intentional: NO MORE Jail cells in the courthouse...as it is on hold....where are the jail beds going to be ? no sense in hiring more officers if there is no place for them
onion_grower: Jail expansion could turn this town around.
ProducerBadBob: Only had two beers...two growlers full that is.
Intentional: lol
onion_grower: 500 heroin users and 500 meth users would leave town if it means they would be in jail for a few days after arrest.
onion_grower: We don't need more cops, we need fewer criminals. Jail expansion would be a good reason for criminals to find greener pastures.
onion_grower: Measure D
NoSmokeItNoMo: These Orchard ads sound suspiciously like Wigington
ProducerBadBob: No that's not Dean...it's Wade Riggs, trust me.
onion_grower: Measure D is a swindle so there will be no money for jail expansion for at least ten years. It all goes to the unions and the pension liability.
Intentional: I have this idea that must be considered....it involves combining the Homeless issue and the Ducky Derby... I think it could be big...
NoSmokeItNoMo: YOu got it onoin head
Intentional: SHOOT OUT in NJ...suspect in custody
Sungold: Nj is having their share if issues
ProducerBadBob: I was thinkin combine Slide The City with a ski ramp at the end...use the aqua golf facility as the splashdown zone....
Sungold: That would be inovative
Intentional: ok...now we are getting to the solution... I like it Bob...they can float to Sac... winner gets to live with Gov. Moonbeam
ProducerBadBob: Might have to install Linear Motor Units at the top to ensure sufficient launch velocity...
NoSmokeItNoMo: The city manager is trying to figure a way to make the citizens pay for all the cushy dedals that coucil people like Sullivan, Murry.. make
Intentional: send them to other counties now...it costs us more than a half million a year now...
onion_grower: Defeat measure D; Bring back a clean bill in 2017, 100% for jail expansion. No discretion for Kurt Starman who plans to plunder measure D.
NoSmokeItNoMo: These city retirees should show up in the Forbes 400 soon
Intentional: Freeze raises until unfunded are manageable(definition to be considered)...Oniongrower...you are right on
onion_grower: Ask winters: How long to open a jail expansion with measure D?
Intentional: 5th highest paid police department in the NATION... I know...we need to give raises and throw more money at this...not address the problem
NoSmokeItNoMo: I say reduce some of their salaries or fire them and hire some younger people the are not double dippers
NoSmokeItNoMo: How many city coucil meetings has Julie attended?
Intentional: same RPD budget today as 5 years ago...but 40 less officers...why ? because of unfunded pension obligations ...raises are not helping...
NoSmokeItNoMo: The way to get things done in the council is to have the goods on the other members
Intentional: We need a 'DOOR' that these people do not want to go thru... with all the programs we have to help those that are homeless...get in a program, get help, get back into the system OR...go thru the 'DOOR' we just need to have a majority determine what is behind the 'door'
ProducerBadBob: Caller Sandy wants to know: A Day Center is all well and good what what about at night, that's when they are all out roaming around?
Intentional: INCREASING THEIR PIE MEANS CUTS TO OUR PIE
ProducerBadBob: *but what about
NoSmokeItNoMo: How aboutt a bear pit
NoSmokeItNoMo: it worked for the Vikings
Intentional: ok...there is an idea that may work....bear pit...it's a start...politicians first ?
Intentional: Day center gives them a place to crash and 'come down' from their high...so they can reload for the next night...put them out in the sun, work them..better idea
NoSmokeItNoMo: How many city council meetings has Julie attended?
NoSmokeItNoMo: does she want the comment period kept at the end like the 4 stooges voted for?
Intentional: maybe if we could find a way to ensure they sleep at night ...they would be up during the day when the rest of us are...
NoSmokeItNoMo: I say vote for Cadd and who ever he endorses.. he is the only conservative on the council
Intentional: only choice
Intentional: they captured the bomber suspect alive... looked like he took a round or two.. but wqas alive...let the water boarding begin...ooops ..I mean the questioning...
NoSmokeItNoMo: He's the only one that actually studies the problems.. if it wasn't for him we wouldn't know about the unfunded liabilities
Intentional: we will probably be paying for this guys sex change operation in a few months...
NoSmokeItNoMo: And we don't need an electric board because then the REU can easily stick it to us
NoSmokeItNoMo: Oh and how about the way the 4 stooges got rid of the DRBA,, such wisdom
Intentional: city officials trying to create jobs ? this is a joke right ? what do they know about anything besides living on the taxpayers backs ?
ProducerBadBob: Before being named for a railroad conductor...this town was Poverty Flats...
NoSmokeItNoMo: People only see signs. Not many use their brains to vote
ProducerBadBob: I sort of work that in reverse...the more signs I see, the less likely I am to vote...funny that way.
Intentional: very true Bob and it functioned more efficiently then it does now...
Intentional: but these income streams are needed to sustain their salaries...eliminate them and it would be a house of cards
Intentional: wait wait wait....those silly shallow campaign promises...
