And a nasty message was written in response.<BR/><BR/>I have two questions:<BR/><BR/>How are IMAX theaters doing in the recession?<BR/><BR/>Why does the nomuseumtax website not mention the amount of the proposed tax anywhere on the site?<BR/><BR/>And, yes, though I post anonymously, I am aware that you can see my ip address through counter statistics.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7671777.post-36087789209721986152009-03-04T22:22:00.000-06:002009-03-04T22:22:00.000-06:00My stock in ther downtown ballpark, which is a fin...My stock in ther downtown ballpark, which is a fine ballpark, is still for sale. Maybe you would like to buy naming rights to the ballpark as I note by today's JS the Chiefs are still looking for a partner for naming rights since the O'Brien deal expired last fall.<BR/><BR/>I also note that the PPD raised fees. They also cut services to the tune of $390,000 for the remainder of the year. Prudent moves, of course, considering that Peoria's economy "is holding up well" as some say.<BR/><BR/>Does your company know you are reading my blogs at 10:30 in the morning?<BR/><BR/>Hmmmmmm.Merle Widmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04267875223386924271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7671777.post-50577796954379128472009-03-04T12:37:00.000-06:002009-03-04T12:37:00.000-06:00As you continue to fill your depends over this mus...As you continue to fill your depends over this museum thing, one can only hope your opposition is as successful as was your opposititon to the Riverplex, downtown stadium and every other fine development you oppose.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
