Shoot to kill?

That was Rick's facetious answer to getting rid of the punks vandalizing the Public Gardens. What is wrong with people? Plus, were you shocked by the revelations that cabbies and other cars are being pelted with rocks as they drive by Uniacke Square? I received several calls off the air from people that had similiar experiences. Again- what is wrong with people? I think the sad fact is, we have to stop expecting people to do the right thing. They won't. The city needs to think outside the box to come up with some creative solutions. Rick suggested barbed wire around the gardens. I think it's a good idea (minus the 50-thousand volts of electricity). That would just result in a lawsuit - but sadly, probably less vandalism!

We had a busy, interesting show today! Tonnes of different topics discussed from vandalism to gardening to lighthouses. You really never know what you're going to hear on the Hotline. The best call we received today was from Gloria McCluskey! We're just so thrilled that she's back up and walking around and getting ready to come back to council and shake it up again. Go get 'em Gloria!

Did you hear Rick's complete and total lack of gardening knowledge? I mean, I'm no expert. In fact, I had to ask Tim from Halifax Seed (http://shop2.itnweb.com/halifaxseed/) how to grow herbs on my deck! But at least I have the knowledge that sheep manure should probably be kept on "outdoor" plants exclusively. We had a good laugh about that one!

Well, it's a gorgeous sunny day and it will be until Friday (hopefully). Enjoy it!

Cheers,
