Good morning South Windsor! Today is Saturday, Nov. 10, 2012; there are 51 days left in the year.

My stepson just introduced me to the biggest time suck ever: Temple Run for the iPhone.

ZOMG, I’m forgoing human interaction, sleep and food to play this stupid game.

The Yogurt Siren is now an iPhone game widow. Poor thing.


Here’s your Daily 5:

1. The South Windsor High girls volleyball team plays tonight in the first round of the state Class LL tournament at home at 4 p.m.

2. The South Windsor High football team takes on New Britain at 1 p.m.

3. The South Windsor Farmers’ and Artisans’ Market is today from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

4. The South Windsor High Music and Drama group is putting on the show "Fame" tonight at 7p.m.

5. Bruce Gregori tonight at Nomads Adventure Quest.

The Arrogance of Power

We expect more from our leaders than derision, accusation and suspicion.

Mike, thanks for using your real name, and for trying to have a repsectful discourse. I wish more…Read More would do so. I disagree with you, but we can agree to disagree. I do not berate people's ideas, and I have never threatened anyone. My only criticism has been of the tactic of taking pot shots from the dark. I believe that "Steve Phillips" is an elected official, which makes his rants that much more objectionable by using a pseudonym. I don't mind criticism. What I do mind is shadowy mud slinging that makes it so difficult for either party to recruit good people to run for office. There are a lot of good people who see the gratuitous insults and maligning, and say that they do not want to subject themselves to that nonsense. Using real names raises the level of discourse and allows for a real exchange of ideas.

More red-herring here! First Mr. McCann and now Mr. Riley... Really, gentlemen? You do yourselves…Read More a disservice. How can you expect to be taken seriously as town leaders if you would continue to persist in berating folks on public blogs about their user names?!? It is undignified. Quite plainly you are bullying here – I question your judgment.

Mr. McCann arrogantly conducts himself on the Town Council and here as if he is above criticism,…Read More forgetting (or simply not caring) about the privilege and responsibility serving elected office holds. A privilege and responsibility granted by the very same constituents McCann insults with comments above. Lacking empathy and humility are never traits respected leaders aspire, and sadly what McCann has disrespectfully expressed here.

Some folks choose not to use their real or full names on public bulletin boards and blogs……Read More Welcome to the 21st century Mr. McCann! Indeed the terms of use for Patch say quite clearly: "We encourage, but do not require, that the user name you provide be your real name." Mr. McCann you have chosen to be a public figure and politician. Others who may only wish to participate anonymously on blogs and postings such as these are not required to participate at whatever _you_ may deem to be an acceptable level.

Larry, I don't like borrowing any more than you do. The fact of the matter is that the Town has…Read More ignored so many pressing issues for so long, the only realistic way to get back on track is to do a modest amount of borrowing, unless you want to see tax increases of 10% or more, instead of the average hike of 4.36% in the budget that we passed last week. We have a rare opportunity to address some of those needs at historic low interest rates. It is not a matter of borrowing now and figuring out how to pay for it later. It is going ahead with projects for the future of our Town while it is affordable to do so.

I believe there's a misprint - the title should have been "BORROWING for the future"?
