Well the Mayor of San Diego, Dick Murphy has managed to make the Time Magazine list of Mayor's, as one of the bottom three in the country. He has been all over the TV saying they have just looked at the negatives and none of the good things he and his administration have done. Frankly I haven't seen where they have got much of anything done.
They have had their share of problems though, like the big fire a couple of years back, all the flooding from the messed up storm drain system, sewage spills, the pension crisis and the corruption cases going on against a couple of City Councilman. Granted it is not all Murphy's fault. The City Council is right up there with him in the blame department. I would like to see the whole bunch kicked out of office, but that won't happen. There are too many folks that want San Diego to be San Francisco South.
My gosh, I keep seeing these cruise ship survivors running all over and whining and crying about the heavy seas. They need to cruise the South Pacific on a Frigate or Destroyer during the Typhoon season, and they will see some heavy seas. Yeah, I guess I am being a bit harsh, but to hear them talk the ship was going under. Take it from someone who has been in really rough seas and had a severely damaged ship that had to limp back to port for repairs before being able to get underway again, there are bigger waves than they have seen out there. I am glad they didn't have anyone severely injured though. I have seen people seriously hurt in heavy seas and the injuries can be pretty bad.
I am kind of interested in the election of the new Pope. I hope they get one elected in the next couple of days. It must be driving all the news folks nuts with the secrecy involved.
Well I guess that is my thoughts for today after taking a brief break from homework, Now I have to get back to homework. Have a great day.
