Steve Barron Toots Own Horn

Two people addressed Northampton County Council during courtesy of the floor at tonight's meeting. The first was Democratic Council candidate Tom O'Donnell, who gave a long rambling speech about ... something until President John Cusick pulled the plug on him. Like Controller Steve Barron, he's a certified fraud examiner. That's a fancy way of saying he's no accountant. Anyhoo, he's on to something, but I'll be damned if I can figure out what the hell it is. He claims he "will not name names unless elected." Since that's not going to happen, we'll never know. 

The second person to address Council was none other than our Controller, Barron von Footinmouth. He spent his allotted time patting himself on the back, describing in great detail a routine peer review that his office recently passed. He was asked to congratulate his staff, something that must have slipped his mind.
