It’s funny that I can miss a trip to the dentist, but I never forget a car check-up. I don’t know what makes my brain work when it comes to car repairs rather than my own body. However, I’m more ticked off when I get the paperwork after taking my car in. Last year, I [...]

  Nothing frustrates me more than to share with the world that as House Minority Leader Lawrence F. Cafero Jr., R-Norwalk, speaks to his colleagues, no one is listening!  We have budget problems because back in 2009, no one thought it was important. This includes Rep.
