Goodbye.
@Richard….Readers would be interested in DOC Commissioner Jones’ trek thru state government. Btw… “Kinte.” Alex Haley would hang his head in shame.
Not to worry. When he goes to prison the new secretary of the department of corrections will make sure he is happy and healthy.
Drugs and wespons by felons in Century? You don’t say!!
With the proposal of a new hotel, the bad guys won’t be at home with all of these drugs and guns, they will be there. Cooking their crack and meth in the microwaves.
