happen i have a question couple of things but first of all i want to ask you what you thought of the halftime show i thought bruno mars rocked i think the red hot chili pepper guy was kind of seem like he was a he was like photo bombing or something but i thought bruno mars was well i thought chili peppers got it too i thought they were just hit it doesn't have that was the highlight of the entire five hour catastrophe way around so you know what i like about bruno mars when he sings a song you can you understand exactly what he's saying yeah exactly and it's very interesting the moment i want to touch base on what the conversation was before my call stands to benefit the most from pulling all of the resources and having one region so to speak with fire pui you know all of our tax dollars  stand to benefit gary of course they want something like that of course they want you know this is all of you know the communities that surround them with the most part they're not in they're bringing us down i don't know how they could hold up well no the reason that it would never happen is the reason that i don't think you'll ever have an executive one executive in the county level is that if it was an elected position you would probably look at the community that has the most votes that would be the spot that would be able to garner enough support to put the person in the position and that would typically just like you have to when you run for county wide office you have to have support of gary to win executive will take place one it would have to be a person that was appointed through a board similarly like nick nursery or something where you would you would set up there'd have to be criteria for someone to put in and it would be a national search and just like they did with this one one one that would be one of the ways it would work and then they thought you know what some of these people are thinking and commenting on is you know the list where resources let's take care of each benefit well i think we all do if you look at i'll give you five reasons why people benefit if if if we bought together salt all together as one county and you paid your portion of it the pounds that you took you get much better buying power if you work together seventeen communities for any type of purchasing you'd get better buying power if you had you would have to have seventeen different public works sheds if you had trucks that you'd be able to put instead of seventeen to college they tell you the one thing that you need do is network work together work together when you're successful in businesses because you put a team together and then when we run our local that want what the different that what you need want to make sure that want to make  sent some trucks over to gary remember it was kind of a weird snowfall it ended at the lake port line so portage really didn't have any snow and gary had twenty inches which is very unique because normally it's the other way around normally lake effect snow is puerto county portage east in this time it was actually the outskirts of portage west exactly so they didn't really have very much snow as a matter of fact in some areas really didn't get any snow and then just a few miles away so the portage mayor sen sent some trucks over there to help gary and the city council got all mad in a weird and i was here this morning that morning jim when you were we were gone for a couple days and it was probably eighty to twenty people in favor of the portage mayor i mean this council took a thrashing that morning by our listeners so now ten to fifteen people have just out of the blue sent checks to port it's that never happens by the way well you know what that's that's an embarrassment they're trying to embarrass the consul really sure i mean your son in a check because you're making the point of the mayor hey if you're being petty if you're being so petty with your money here let me help you out i mean you have to understand there's some the town council the person in charge of this and i i don't know portage politics but i talk to someone who does and they said that this guy wants to run for mayor so it's just a really big battle between the person that is mayor and the person that wants to become air which is often the case actually when they're from different parties so to me this should have kept been kept in house now i think it looks very petty and every ninety percent the people i've talked to say at the end of the day the portage mayor looks good in this yeah i understand that he looks good but what about six point she says i want the money that i pay in my community to stay in my community ok then we should not send a fire truck outside of its borders even though it may help save a life somewhere else even though many of these communities already have agreements together when the ham in munster had to flood and hammond workers were asking to help throw sandbags on the monster side we should tell them to stay on their own side we should never work together when we're out of salt one community should not borrow from another when hammond wants to purchase the apartment complex that's right on the border of highland they shouldn't borrow two million dollars from highland because they're different communities if you want to act that way then you'll be an island if you want to work together i think things always are much better when you work together it's just so deja vu when you live when you go to lake central high school you live in three different communities it's a school corp that has three different communities a go to it school districts across the country don't necessarily have just one area it is such so asinine that we sit here and put seventeen different boarders up and then cry and moan why don't why we don't get anything this is exactly why we don't get anything because you go down state and down state they said they are so stupid up north that all you need to do is buy one or two of them off and you can give them the you can give the spoil very little because they're going to fight amongst each other and that's what we continue to do and this is a perfect example
