In or Out?

Just when ya thought it was safe to go back into the water...

....comes the news that our very favorite shark hasn't really left. (Well, he left December 6th, but he didn't actually leave.  Isn't that all clear now?)

That's right - Der Robber (shown below at a City Council meeting) is still around, helping our "proven Financial Manager" perform his annual Holiday juke-and-jive act (also known as the annual City Audit).

It's gonna be hard to top last year's trained pony show (which I've been told got to #2 on the New York Times' best-selling fiction list).  It was all the more memorable, since both gentlemen are most commonly referred to as the posterior section of the horse...how did they get the front part to work?

But the best part is that he still gets to take a couple of parting pulls from our Fair City's financial breasts.  Word is, he's being paid $75.00 per hour for his wizardry (on nights & weekends, of course...he took on a job in Norwalk, trying to save that City from the brink of financial stability ruin). Ya gotta wonder what Tom Hamilton, who constantly clashed with our boy, thinks of this.

Maybe the Bobster simply needs the  extra pin money...after all, how many towns have the financial cojones to pay him $140,000 per year?  Besides West Haven, that is.
