Park patrons had seen a concentration of feathers along a stream in the canal, indicating a coyote might have got to him.
Quick, call a lawyer! Sue the coyotes for aggravated swanicide! Sue God for creating coyotes! Anyone else we can sue?
I seem to recall that the plantiff was feeding the swans bread when the male swan became aggressive. So isn't the plantiff at least partially responsible for the attack? She should sue herself!
Under English common law, the Queen owns all swans regardless of whose land they're on. So unless the State of Connecticut, as successor to the Crown, reputiated its ownership of swans, the State owns the swans. The "victim" should sue the state. What the heck,let her sue the Queen too!
Q: What's the difference between a dead skunk in the road and a dead lawyer in the road?
A: The skunk has skid marks in front of it.
I love the shoppes at Canton and I really can't wait til them come to Cheshire-so.........
Get ready old timer!
WS and the boys gonna give ya the big show
Everyone wants it..,council, P and Z
Economic Dev
Alot of signatures at Stop and Shop
Go home and watch the cows graze
think of yourselves as really behind the times
boy those swans will look good in the north end along the ten mile river then we can see them in all their glory
you can frown
act like a clown
but get ready to get down
the men from ws are in town
the shoppes are here by 08 late
g'day mate
it is your fate
to live in a town
with a great place to shop
sorry old timers
must move to vermont
Hey Tim, this is unrelated to the swans (but so are 1:30 and 1:43's remarks) but I was wondering why you haven't mentioned much about the boe's budget now that the council set the final number.
I understand that even though the boe is getting just over a million dollars less than requested by the superintendent, that the superintendent is still going to be hiring 5 or 5 1/2 of the 7 1/2 teachers he wanted. He claimed the number of retirements was only 3 or 4, but now it's up to 8 as it usually is. Funny how he still gets nearly everything requested with a million or so less.
Just shows you how dumb the WS supporter are. They don't know the difference between swans and the northend. I'm sure the swans are smarter.
These boozos would have sued the swan and the swan would have won.
There's a possibility for two Alfred Hitchcock movies here--
"THE SWANS"
and
"THE LAWYERS"
get used to it shpppes and stores old timer
one of these days this "Old Timer" nut will be an old timer. I hope he receives the same respect he gives to "old Tmers". They say it comes back ten-fold. I can't wait.
3:41 I read in the W. R. newspaper that the superintendent wants to reduce the budgeted amounts for books and instructional supplies...yet he will get nearly all of his staffing positions! That's crazy! He's cutting back on the items that are the very tools used by the students to learn. Hope this dem boe does something about it...but I doubt it.
Swans have more brains than the strip mall promoters.
The new north end will be great
We can have everything we want
More more more
capitalism is great
Business of Cheshire is business
Help! The keystone on my tunnel broke, taxpayers hurry and fix it. Get the town engineer down here quick. Call an emergency council meeting, town manager get the grant process rolling. Don't slow down the mall.
