I am sorry Bill Z, call it a senior moment. the other idea about the opening would be if they made Johnny cash masks, like the do for presidents and we could all to the opening weaing a mask.

Heck Fiesty Kerri could pull one out and put it on when she was on the stage with the important people who make the speaches.

OK, no problem, I didn't know if you were making mistakes or trying to mess with my head.

I've got a black shirt I could wear with black jeans, but my wife would be embarrassed if I did anything to draw attention to us, so for her, I'll likely look like any other futz out there, unless I can convince her that we should all wear our myfolsom t-shirts. Thinking about it, she won't go for that either.

I have been planning to wear black to the opening all along. The Tee-shirts, though an interesting idea, are not an option - at least not a legal one - as you would need permission from the estate (the Cash Family) and though they did give permission to name the bridge after Johnny, it is unlikely they would allow the Tee-shirts. This is particularly important, since the Cash Family was watching the Council meeting during which 4 of the 5 Council members seemed intent on naming it anything other than after Johnny Cash. If I were the Cash family, I would tell the City of Folsom to take a long walk off a short pier!

I'm definitely wearing my CASH t-shirt (not that one - the American Recordings one where he's got the trenchcoat and the dogs)

Funniest danged thing happened.

A sort of ---uh, experiment.


The last time I came on here and complained about the bridge noise during indecent hours---it stopped for a few days.


So I tried it again--just before this weekend had started.

Guess what?

No indecent hours of working this weekend.

Yeah, they were out there---but not before 7am. (well, ok...they were out there---but they kept the noise down to only vehicles beeping and moving around until then)


So, I'm thinking---did someone call them? Or is someone on this board--relating this thread to them?

ha ha ha----anyway, it was nice to be able to sleep in this weekend.


Thanks for being considerate Kiewit.

Ummm... because it would be a lot harder for us to do your bidding if you were quiet?

I hope the Cash familiy is not mad at the people of the city of folsom but just the idiots who call the shots (please excuse yourself) I am thinking if you can buy cash shirts they must be approved

you know its too bad the boys never let you be mayor after all your service so whats the good in behaving yourself. be a little outspoken, liven the old meetings up. there were times when I was listening to old miklos or starskey where I just wanted to stand up and yell "bull...t but I was afraid the police would grab me. they might let you get away with it and even if they busted you your myfolsom.com friends would mount a free Kerri movement.

I haven't figured out where the new ernie guy fits in, the times I have heard him he seems like a nice but simple soul, which would probably mean old miklos would spin his web around him and give him a couple of crumbs.

a radical fiesty kerri might wake folsom up. this cash bridge thing is a fun issue but it sure points out miklos and company don't give a hoot about what the folsom people think

hey wear black and raise your hand in a fist of protest like those olympic folks did a long time ago
