* Yesterday and today, were the first two days of extended hours (till 7 on Thursday and 6 on Friday) at the COLUMBIA MARKET HOUSE. Was told it wasn't real busy last night wth the extra hours. That one might take some time.
* Speaking of the MARKET, there will be two people interviewed by borough tomorrow for the position of market manager. Here are some ideas -- look to cut back to one day; get some weekend events in there; stop the politics; get more stand holders and make an effort to get one longtime stand holder back, who left today. And also, don't require the stand holders to be there both days. Might be surprised you could get more stands.
* More advice for dowtown and one for the market -- kick out the "Freddy the Freeloaders," who are taking up table space and not buying anything. They give our town a great image and the same goes for those downtown and the borough itself, who allow the FTF's" to "reside" on their property. Really looks great, especially when I'm told two of the FTF's were sitting on a local stoop and drinking alcoholic beverages.
I know of at least one down establishment that won't allow the FTF's to sit outside unless they buy something and the FTF's are upset by it. Give me a break!
* Saw yesterday and today, one in town on the main drag and another in the east end where roofs were being put on buildings without visible or any building permits.
* And finally, is it 30 days or three months, that when people move to a new state that they have to change their vehicle registration over to Pennsylvania. I know of three vehicles of out of state license plates, who have been residents of our town and state for more than three months. One is Delaware, one is Mayland and other is Kentucky.
