style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Tahoma'>I read in the paper the other day
that Mayor Chaney and Councilman Lamar recently returned from a paid trip to <st1:City
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">New Orleans</st1:place></st1:City>. Can anyone
tell me why we are paying money for our council to take trips to other cities.
I doubt the trip will give us a "reminder" of how good our city
is. Who's idea was this? Was Lambert and Weber invited? Could we use this money
to lets say, pave streets that are still gravel, instead?<br>
