Indoor Fireworks

In the courtroom today where the city and the Board of Education presented dueling lawsuits, Common Council member Vinnie Loffredo, who was subpoenaed as a witness may have gotten off the best line.

"The citizens complained that we cancelled the fireworks," Loffredo deadpanned.  "We didn't, we just moved them up a month.  And in the end these fireworks (referring to the scene in the courtroom), are going to cost us just as much.  There's a lot of high-priced talent up there."

Why have the fireworks..It's time to tighten the belt and save the city money. What a waste of money to the taxpayer..

No, the line of the day was School Superintendent Michael Frechette saying, "My ethics are better than none."
