A message from Mayor Sefatia Romeo Theken:
On Earth Day, Wednesday, April 22nd, from approximately 1 to 4 pm, the Gorton’s “Green Team” will be doing a cleanup of Stacey Boulevard. Joe Lucido, Operations Manager at the Department of Public Works, is supposed to meet them there and provide yellow bags. They plan to rake and do a general clean up that afternoon. My point of contact at Gorton’s is Sheila Hardwick, who is the Executive Assistant to Judd Reiss, the CEO. She can be reached by email at Sheila.hardwick@gortons.com At my last communication with Sheila, they had 17 volunteers signed up for the afternoon.
In addition, the Mayor plans to stop by at some point over the afternoon to speak with the volunteers.

Here are some more Paintings of my Fathers and one of my older paintings I’ve listed on Ebay.
If you don’t have a Ebay account and want to purchase one of these paintings email me and if there are no bids on that painting I’ll cancel the auction for you. contact me at: Frontiero@hotmail.com
I will only be selling small size paintings no bigger than 11″x14″ on ebay due to high shipping cost.
If you would like a larger size and different Cape Ann scene email me.
I will deliver to Gloucester and Rockport.

Hi Joey,
Did you know that the Manchester Public Library is also doing a Peep
Show? The diorama contest is going on right now!
We did this a couple of years ago and it was so popular that we
decided to repeat the fun. All ages are invited to create and enter
the contest. I’ve attached the PR flyers. Entry form and “the rules”
can be found on our website: http://www.manchesterpl.org
I can’t wait to see this year’s entries.
Thanks
Anne

Glad to be back from a long installation in Seattle, the QotW resumes:
“Don’t plant your bad days. They grow into weeks. The weeks grow into months. Before you know it, you got yourself a bad year. Take it from me – choke those little bad days. Choke ‘em down to nothing.”
Tom Waits (1949- )
A California native, Waits is known for his distinctive gravelly voice and his superb songwriting talents. Although usually categorized as a blues musician, his music extends far beyond that genre into jazz and experimental styles. Many of his ballads have been covered by more famous artists; including Springsteen’s “Jersey Girl” and the Eagles’ “Ol’ 55.” Waits also has a 35 year working relationship with Francis Ford Coppola and has scored nearly twenty films. His unusual looks and massive cool have gotten him parts in dozens of movies, from “One from the Heart” to “The Book of Eli.” Famously anti-consumerist, Waits has successfully sued both Audi and Frito-Lay for using sound-alike musicians to flog their products. He is married to Kathleen Brennan and has three children.
