Then whose is it?

Just a forum for Thompson to make another spiel, and he did it again on Channel 10 tonight.

They are elected officials. My thought is you should keep your old ass out of business that isn’t yours.

If they can’t then they should adjourn immediately after parking their asses around the table. Just my thought.

Mrs. Melba Holland is there though. Does the FA have the legal power to hire and fire at his discretion? I was just wondering how much authority he actually has.

She was a sweet lady and has been missed for several months now by friends and neighbors after she relocated to another town.

God bless you and the family as you grieve your loss!
