As I thought about the debate last not put on by the Berkshire Chamber of Commerce and hosted by BCC, something very important occurred to me. And, please, understand that what I am writing is meant with all sincerity.

I think that it would be a blessing in disguise if Mayor Ruberto does not win this election. He just recently lost his wife of many years and, then, his mother passed away on Thursday.

I think that he needs time to himself, and time to grieve the losses of these two very important people in his life. Plus, I think that he has his own health to consider. With all of the stress he is under, he could have a heart attack, and no job is worth that.

He could work as a consultant for Pittsfield, or for one of the businesses he has been involved with in this area.

Grieving is a process that can take a very long time. And now, with the loss of his mother, there will be a whole new cycle of grief for him to cope with.

Thus, he would be entering a new term with substantial encumbrances that Dan does not have.

It is difficult to do something selfish in a situation such as this. But, I think the people who want Mayor Ruberto reelected for their own selfish reasons should seriously consider the very difficult realities that he is contending with. And, I believe that these realities will compromise his ability to perform as Mayor.

All of what I've written here is of the utmost sincerity.

Not impatience, a mere typing oversight. Your response Loocy?

Deacon-I always thought Merlin was the best of the Fearsome Foursome.

Loccy, I patiently await your retort.

That's cause Deacon was always double teamed, but would still have the sack record if sacks were recorded back then.

Daily Horoscope for December 28

Capricorn

This is a marvellous day for having a discreet word in someone's ear. You'll be able to choose your words carefully, making you very tactful and considerate, and as a result you will have a helpful conversation. This is also a good opportunity to talk about topics that are very dear to your heart, or which are usually too private to mention.
