The Act 1 tax panel made our recommendation last night to the school board. The one school board member that objected to my appointment also expressed disagreement with our recommendation. His objection was the same as for the reason that he did not want me appointed. He is opposed to the PIT and that was our recommendation. We had several senior citizens that commented that the where also against the PIT, even though they did not have income subject to it. I think it is just a case where some seniors just cannot figure our, or articulate what is going on. I do not know how it will end up, as the school board must make the final decision as to what goes on the ballot. I will make the prediction though that our recommendation will be what the school board supports. I think Joe, Allen, Roberta, Paul, and Herb will go with our proposal, that leaves Mike, Mary, Jan, and Lynn as unkowns. It may be close, but I think it will go that tax panel's way. What ever way it goes, I believe it will pass the referendum.

I again played poker too late and slept in. I am such a slacker.

I think I want to ride a century ride as my big challenge for 2007. I will concentrate on just getting back into the workout groove for December and then plan my 2007 big fitness goal over the New Year holiday.
