I'm Back

OK, everyone, I had to take a few days off after a short bout with a nasty stomach virus, be careful, it's going around. So what did we learn in the last few days, BESIDES Langley losing 48-14? Although both touchdowns were passes, so I can say that may be a step in the right direction.

According to THIS article from the Post-Gazette, council is trying their best to get some of our roads paved.

Pittsburgh Councilman Jim Motznik introduced legislation yesterday to plow $2 million more into street paving so an ambitious 50-mile resurfacing schedule can be completed in spite of high asphalt prices.
Mayor Luke Ravenstahl announced in May that the city would aim to lay fresh asphalt on 50 miles of city streets -- up from 39 miles last year -- at a cost of $9.5 million.
"The South Hills neighborhoods and the West End neighborhoods have been neglected," Mr. Motznik said. "We want to just complete what we had scheduled."
