Honeoye Falls-Lima Board of Education 2018-04-24

      Tonight (2018-04-24) was a meeting of the Honeoye Falls-Lima Board of Education (BoE).

      The budget public hearing will be next week, May 1st, at 7PM. Sounds like it will be in the High School Chorus room, which is different. Previously it has been in the High School Cafeteria or the normal Board of Education room, I wonder why the change. Two weeks after that, May 15th, will be the actual Budget vote. 6AM to 9PM, in the High School Foyer (outside the pool). While you can vote as early as 6AM, John will be there to make sure you don’t vote often. Continue reading

Opioid Epidemic Forum 2018-04-11

      Tonight (2018-04-11) was an Opioid Epidemic Forum. Although it did feel more like a presentation, bordering on propaganda.

      Before I go on, I should point out that I am of the ‘say no to drugs‘ philosophy. At times, the medical utility may temporarily outweigh the inherent drawbacks, but it’s not a case of ‘some drugs are sometimes bad, and other are sometimes good’. All drugs are always bad. Just so you know where I am coming from here. Continue reading
