Don't vote for...

I am glad I copied my response and posted it here since the the blog that claims to be "An open and Public blog" is obviously not so open nor public and publishes not "...those subjects that will be beneficial to the village". Nor the "good life in century village". 
Gary, you started that blog and unfortunately you allowed a deranged person access to who can post on your blog. She has admitted to deleting my posts in the past and anytime she could get to them before you (Gary). Not very open, huh Gary?
Thank goodness that I also usually post my responses here as well, otherwise your blog seems very slanted. Even when you seem to try to be fair, your friend Olga is not. and Her argument that she will let me post when David lets her post on his blog. Childish response at best. 
This is not the kind of person that should be in a position of authority within UCO. 
She went into the UCO Reporter office and demand that her vile editorial be published and when it was refused because of the content being libel, she called Joy Vestal a Effin-C*#@(a derogatory term for the female anatomy) and threatened Joy. This is NOT the kind of person that should be in the position of responsibility in UCO. 
Even further back, (when I worked at the Reporter) she was trying to submit an article supposedly written by her son concerning Pharmacists and their Techs and when I spoke, asking if she had any medical background, she denied having any. We went back and forth for a minute and her retort to me was YOU SHOULD HAVE DIED IN THE WAR! Sorry, but that was unforgivable. To tell a veteran of two wars that he should have died in it. Hanoi Jane has nothing on Olga. THIS PERSON DOES NOT DESERVE to be in the same room as ANY Veteran let alone represent anyone in UCO.  
DO NOT VOTE FOR OLGA WOLKENSTEIN, Not even if she ran for Trash Inspector, (although THAT she may actually be qualified for).
You want to put your vote to good use? Vote for John Gragg. He is honest, hard working and devotes not only his time, but his own money to the betterment of the village.
Joy Vestal, dedicated and the most qualified person the UCO Reporter has ever had.
Ed Black is highly qualified to become a VP, but sad to say, he has many enemies in the village, the majority being with the malcontents. Although extremely competent, I fear he will not win.
Marcia Ziccardi previously a VP, did not get re-elected for good reason, she liked to put her nose in everyones business but her own. She has an opinion on everything, and how it should be done and has expertise in none. As Overseer on Transportation Committee, she went to only two or three meetings in two years. Once was because Lori Torres was away and she had no choice. Not a good choice. 
John Gluszack, also not a great choice. oh yes, he got the gates closed at night which makes the money spent on barcodes a moot point, but there is also his health concerns. Problems that take him away from the village every summer for three or four months at a time. 
Let's see now...Howard O'Brian or Ed Grossman...that's a no brainer... Has anyone checked Howard's signature to see if he puts those thee little letters after his name? I saw Ed's video and he claims to have worked on three newspapers in the past, the Smithtown Messenger, the Islip Messenger and the Ronkonkoma Messenger... and of course there is the CV Messenger...Is there a theme Here? All papers founded by our own messenger Ed? Sounds like Ed has something to complain about EVERYWHERE he goes.
John Hess or Eileen Pearlman, well, I know John Hess and trust him to have common sense and is a great organizer as the CERT team can attest to. Ms. Pearlman on the other hand, I have no idea who she is, or what she can or can not do. 
Bobbi Levin or Marilyn Pomerantz? I barely know Bobbi, as I left The Reporter just as she was coming in, I know her to be reliable, but honestly, not much else. Marilyn on the other hand I know fairly well. She does work hard, but health concerns may become an issue, and of course, she does keep her friends informed of everything that goes on. Sorry, but trust may be an issue. 
Now for the big one, President.
I have nothing against either David or Phyllis. I feel both have served the village with distinction and deserve to be recognized for it. I will support either one that wins. I do however slightly lean towards the incumbent with reservations.
David, I consider you a friend and it with that in mind that I say that there are times that you need to take a chill pill. Yes, the malcontents get under your skin at times, but take a step back and reflect on what you say before you say it...I know, coming from me, seems a little redundant  as I too need to follow my own advise, but I am working on it.  Either way  I wish you both luck this election.

More on the nonsense from Olga's accusations on the Reporter

Once again, Olga is trying to blame the people at the Reporter for her not getting her copy of the paper she hates but can't seem to put down.
Makes you wonder, should Phyliss Richland win the election, will we have to endure Olga's insanity in the paper every month?
Just a little background, here is my answer to her accusing the cam and before that Joy Vestal of not delivering her Reporter and below Olga's response, my further response to her. I print it here only because my responses are not always welcomed or printed, although if Gary sees it first, it usually does.

   So, now the CAM is telling someone not to deliver to Northampton R? First Joy, now Don. I am not the one making false accusations Gary. The Cam made a statement that some areas needed to get some more papers. Nothing was said of how the distribution is made, and I know for a fact that it is distributed by the maintenance companies and not the CAM. Like Joe Friday always says..."Just the facts".

   Bob, you say the maintenance companies are distributing the newspapers, if so, pray tell how does a store more than 2 miles away get the latest issue of the Reporter to use for wrapping paper while my building has yet to receive any papers?
   It is the responsibility of the Reporter to see that every building gets papers BEFORE they are distributed to outside vendors.
   It's only fair.

While at the Reporter, we started getting the paper out to some of the store and restaraunts on the outside as a courtesy. Some requested it as they were advertising. The deliveries inside the village have been handled by the maintainence companies such as galleger and seacrest.  If you didn't get yours, ask them before you make false accusations and lies. As for you wrapping paper line, I seriously have doubts about that tall tale. Even so, at least it's better than the people that take five or six copies to selfishly collect coupons with considering the other residents. Have you checked with the residents of your building?
Just to be crystal clear and give you something else to bitch at, this is how it works:
The maintenance companies agree to to deliver the papers every month, and of course this takes time and money from them, so the Reporter provides advertising IN EXHANGE for delivering the paper. Why would a maintenance company risk not delivering only to your building and risk a scandal? Of course it is convenient for YOU to say that someone YOU oppose did it. Foolish nonsense. Par for the course.

Now we wait and see if it gets published. Note to Phyliss  ,
I would hope you know that even though I do not agree with the crowd you have chosen to affiliate with, I do hold YOU and your service to UCO in very high regard as I do with David.
I do not know if you will win this election or not, but if you do, and you have Olga have anything to do with the Reporter, I can almost guarantee, you won't get a second term.

More lies, accusations and ignorance brought to you by Olga and freinds

Things are going well for some and not so well for others

 This is a picture of an undelivered stack of the UCO Reporter. You may wonder why? So do we. So will their advertisers. Remember who is paying for this. You are! This is clearly a mark against the Management. UCO and The Reporter.

Undelivered stack of the UCO Reporter

This was my answer to the lies on the other blog who think they know how things are run at the Reporter. I left there almost a year ago and am so tired of seeing the utter nonsense being spread by Olga and her friends. My suggestion to her would be to speak to her former spy and get info on how things run at the office of the Reporter before twisting it into her lies and making unsubstantiated accusations about Joy Vestal or any other person that works or worked in the Reporter. Just because you write some crap on the toilet paper you cALL THE MESSanger, does not mean you have a clue on how to run a paper. Stick to the toilet, it suits you much better


this is the answer I put on their blog, word for word. I put it here only because Olga has a habit of deleting anything I say on Gary's or should I say her blog.





What kind of drivel are you spouting now? That Joy Vestal has anything to do with your association not getting the Reporter? How many lies can you make up? If you are not getting your copy of the Reporter, the only one you need to speak with is your maintenance people. That's right, the paper is picked up by each associations maintenance company, i.e. Seacrest, Gallager, etc...
Your accusations are faceless lies. Grow up already. You are definitely what this Village does not need. Now or ever! Anyone that votes for you is a fool. Print this you self righteous egomanic.
