Sunday Septermber 19th 2010 was  a very ok day in sunny Millville where some want to build up and others want to tear down. After getting the printing to work, I went to the Refrigerator Door Gallery on High Street, but alas it was closed. I then walked to
This past Afternoon at Bogarts Books
Bogarts Books where Poetry on High was happening. There was a nice crowd there and it was enjoyable. I then checked out the Phillies and Eagles games at Bojo's while having a beer. The Eagles were leading but the Phillies were losing to the Washington Nationals.

Turns out the Eagles barely beat the Detroit Lions 35-32 and the Phillies won 7-6 with 4 runs in the 9th inning. They face the Atlanta Braves for a big series. to decide who will be National League East champs. The discount store is closing this week and moving to philly. It had an ugly sign but it was sure convenient. There was no troublemakers hanging out and it brought folks who would otherwise not step foot in the Arts District. Speaking of which there is a again some grumbling about the MDC but there will be no changes at the top since there is enough support to keep the MDC leadership intact.
This Thursday is Artists Nite and also a public meeting held by Motorsports protest group TrackRacket. As reported in the News of Cumberland County representatives from the City Commission and the Motorsports Park will NOT attend due to the pending litigation:
TrackRacket's complaint against the city concerning enforcement of the city's noise ordinance against the New Jersey Motorsports Park was dismissed late last month. There remains the possibility that the special interest group will move ahead with an appeal to that decision.
The same complaint against the track has yet to be dismissed.
"We have received no formal invitation, and I would think that their attorneys would advise them not to invite us because of the litigation," Fauerbach said. "You do not conduct litigation away from the courtroom."
Post e-mailed invitations to each of the five city commissioners.
"It's a shame the commissioners will not be there," TrackRacket founder Michele Post said. "They could come and listen. Nothing's stopping them from coming and hearing it."
The meeting is an open public forum, and all are welcome to attend, Post said
Well, I did note that all are welcome to "attend" but not speak like at a previous public meeting. where folks from the racetrack tried to speak. This is when I started to really question the motivation. Since then, the listing has ONLY been done by newspaper reporters, bloggers and the Millville City Commission.
Well, I have to catch the 4:13am bus to hit my Dr apt at 7:30. I will appear on Thursday and not much earlier. Enjoy the articles below!
