Well . . . . perhaps the issues is not how much the water costs but HOW MUCH WATER THEY USE! I'm pretty sure if CWL lowered the rates and they only payed $175 a month they would STILL complain.
I tried to explain that you pay for what you get. If you want low low rates move someplace where if there is a large fire the rest of the town can't drink water because of low pressure. Columbus has built in redundancy and can handle two large fires AND still have water pressure. Columbus is a Six Sigma -like community when it comes to water.
and of course one person said she called DPW to complain about the water and DPW said there is lead in the water. What? She said DPW had an article in the paper about the lead issue in Columbus. WHAT?
Luckily a DPW person posted the article which had actual facts and not what she believe facts.
And this morning I had to explain to a person that NO - Columbus politicians did not vote down a new school a few years ago.
I think social media is showing just how out of touch with reality people are when it comes to actual knowledge and facts.

WEATHER - I STILL don't see any long term COLD. Yes we have some pretty cold weather coming next weekend and next Friday night we will FINALLY drop below 10 degrees for the first time in ALMOST a year. Here is a forecast map for Friday.
Notice it is just a break off of a bunch of cold air - not the main event. This shows surface temps and that big blob north of us just spins like a top but does not come down our way. I'm looking at 4 days of pretty cold weather but then back to normal.
Look for highs next weekend to be in the 15 degree area and lows about 2. OK weather up to Thursday.
No REAL storms here but THREE BIG storms hitting south of us, south of ILL.

The government is STILL closed and people cannot buy houses using federal loans, brewers cannot put out new beer, the US Patent Office is closed so no one can patent new inventions and fed workers are going to food pantries to find food for their families.
MEANWHILE - there was a vote to pay federal employees for the #TrumpShutDown. 411 votes said we should pay employees for being basically laid off. 7 voted to NOT pay them.
One of those 7 is Glenn Grothman the deplorable who believes if you don't work you should not get paid EVEN if it is his fault. Instead if you need money have a yard sale. Sell your stuff.
And Trump? If it is a National Emergency CALL A NATIONAL EMERGENCY. It is or it isn't, right? Either he is too weak to do it or it's not a National Emergency.
Here is something he COULD do but him being the smartest guy ever to be President I'm sure he has thought of it.
Sell Wall Bonds. Like War Bonds. People that want to wall can purchase a low interest Wall Bond to fund his useless not needed wall for a fake made up emergency and they can make money from interest. Win win for them. . Heck Mayors on the border were asked about the crime waves.
NOPE - they said they are the safest communities around - no wall needed.

I have to share this - I'm sorry - I'm a Nightwish fan boy it seems and there are a lot of these videos on youtube of people listening to Nightwish for the very first time. This is from a Canadian couple who have zero idea who Nightwish is and how amazing their performance is OR how freakishly amazing Floor Jensens vocals are.
This was literally their first BIG concert with Floor who had been with the band for 2 weeks. The last vocalist quit mid tour and they called her and said can you learn a 22 song set in 24 hours. So she flew 2000 miles and met them.
But the couple is funny. Not sure when the girlfriends purpose is but she is entertaining also LOL So many people have the same reactions on the finale' VERY goose bumpy.
My BUCKET LIST CONCERT! They fill up stadiums in Europe with ease.

51,000 TSA employees have called in sick. So weird how everyone is getting sick. Something is going around it seems. Making America safe.
Did I mention Trumps disapproval rating is in a very steady decline?

Own a home on a golf course (I do) SUCKS TO BE YOU! Trying to sell a home on a golf course takes 14% longer then house in the same county and 27% longer then all houses on the market.
In 2017 200 courses closed and 15 new ones opened. When a course closes the houses drop 25% in price.
In 2001 30 million people played 500 million rounds of golf. In 2017 24 million played 450 million rounds.
