What a busy weekend cleaning up the house with Mary.  Slowly I am getting my life back in order after moving for the 3rd time this year.

It feels good to listen to a some Sisters of Mercy, relay with a glass of wine and see what city council has in-store for us next week…

And there it is:

*1562 Authorize Grant Agreement with VOZ: Workers’ Rights Education for $50,000 to operate and maintain their day labor hire site in Portland as approved by Council  (Ordinance)

Good ‘Ol Randy slipping something by in the consent agenda that is politically unpopular.  Now I am not saying that there should not be a Day Labor center… just that the citizens have a right to have a say on this issue.

But enough with city stuff right now.  I have some PERL code to write for Forward Support to do credit card processing with A.net that will collect all the SOS requirements for political contributions.  I kinda look forward to this as it has been some time since I have used some of my code-fu.

Though for those that are really looking for a good time… check out ORESTAR for the new candidate filings… oh how I love transparent government.  Which remnds me of yet another PERL script I need to write for FS.
