CH GETS NEW POLICE CHIEF


Well the City ofColonial Heights has a new police chief, Jeff Faries who has been the acting chief since December was named chief of police. I was glad to see the city hire from within, Jeff is a 17 veteran of the CH police. This week seems to be flying by for me some reason I can't believe it is already thursday. My arm is starting to fell pretty good now, I haven't thrown any since last wednesday. The Cincinnati Reds are now just 2.5 games out of 1st place now after defeating the Cardinals last night 8-7 on a walk off HR by David Ross, they play the Cards again this afternoon with a chance to move even closer. I have posted a photo from the rehearsal last month and it looks like everybody is happy to be there except on person, see if you can pick him out. MICKEY

this was taken before the go kart racing so it appears that george is already trying to butter up the commissioner!! so i think his actions on the track were premeditated!!
