Showtime for Bill Reid

Councilman William Reid wants you to know he is in an art show.He wanted you to know so much that he left the dais near the end of Monday's meeting, while a citizen was speaking in public comment, to come over to where I was sitting with pen and notebook. He handed me the postcard pictured above, explained he was in the show and suggested I might like to go to Morristown to see it. Upon returning to his seat, he spoke to Councilwomen Gloria Taylor and Vera Greaves about the show, while the hapless resident was still speaking.

Reid had already been chided by Council President Bridget Rivers for speaking out of order earlier. Rivers banged the gavel and threatened to adjourn the meeting, but Reid was not fazed. His disregard for the decorum of the meeting later by intruding his personal business was an insult to the public.

Regarding the postcard, anyone who regularly reads the blogs knows that I do not usually do event publicity, while Dan welcomes it. I prefer to use my time reporting rather than trying to convert posters and such into blog posts when there are other outlets for publicity.

Nonetheless, let it be noted that Mr. Reid is in an art show. You can click on the image to enlarge it for details, and/or look at www.artintheatrium.com
