So as I hinted this morning, in the-let’s-harass-former-female-employees-and-residents of it all in West Vincent there is an update. Mind you I am allowed to have my opinions on what this township is doing and what the elected officials are ALLOWING.

So this happened:

So….West Vincent blinked? I wondered if this was the direction it was headed when I saw on October 1st that the drooling idiots over in West Vincent miraculously realized that they had access to their Instagram account or accounts?

MMMkay, so then this gem this afternoon:

First of all, they are STILL misspelling her name. And she is not jut a former employee, she lives in the township (but I digress.) But what do we expect from Tommy Ryan who posted it?

Is this the equivalent of a “I did not murder my wife” eulogy at a funeral or something? I mean READ IT.

STATEMENT OF WEST VINCENT TOWNSHIP AS TO THE TOWNSHIP OWNED FACEBOOK PAGE

On August 5, 2025, Christina Casey’s employment with West Vincent Township was terminated.

As is commonly done when employment is separated, the Township immediately worked to close or update Township business accounts that were created by, controlled by, or in the name of Ms. Casey. This included accounts with various State agencies, Amazon, Zoom, and others, including Facebook.

In the weeks to follow Ms. Casey did not assist the Township in its efforts to regain control of the Township’s official Facebook page, even though she remained an Administrator of the Facebook page.

On September 23, 2025, seven weeks after her termination, Ms. Casey retained access to the Township Facebook page and deleted information about a road resurfacing project.

The Township then began its efforts to work with Meta (the owner of Facebook) to remove Ms. Casey as administrator of the Township Facebook page. The Township’s efforts through Meta have been unsuccessful.

In January 2026 Ms. Casey stated she had transferred administrative authorizations to Township staff on two occasions – January 2 and January 15. The Township engaged a third-party IT consultant to review the Township’s email system and all available Facebook settings, and on January 16, 2026, the consultant reported that no evidence of administrative authorizations having been transmitted to the Township was found.

Still unable to access its Facebook page, the Township inquired again of Ms. Casey through her attorney to gain access. In response, on April 29, 2026, counsel for Ms. Casey stated his client had “no further interest to attempt to assist the Township”. Ms. Casey took this position even though she remained the Administrator of the West Vincent Township Facebook page.

With all avenues to access the Facebook page exhausted, the Township sought the help of the court system. On September 3, 2026, the Township filed a Complaint in Equity and a Petition for Preliminary Injunction to ask the court to compel Ms. Casey’s cooperation. In response to the Township’s legal filings, the Township learned for the first time that her role as Administrator was removed on June 30, 2026.

Consequently, because Ms. Casey is no longer an Administrator of the Township Facebook page, she presently can be of no help to the Township, and the Township has now withdrawn its Petition for Preliminary Injunction against Ms. Casey.

The Township’s Facebook page is vitally important to the Township administration in allowing the Township to communicate with its followers to provide needed information about Township events. The Township has started a new Facebook page – WestVincentTownshipPA – and directs the followers of the original Township Facebook page to this new page.

date: October 7, 2026

Can I just say it out loud and not in my head? That West Vincent Manager Tommy Ryan is a freak and an idiot? I have other more pejorative and aptly descriptive curse words I would love to apply, but don’t wish to be rude to my readers.

If Facebook is so “vitally important” he should have learned how to use it while Kristina was still employed, yes?

And point of fact: Kristina did indeed try to assist with turning the page over to someone, hell anyone else in West Vincent, and that manager was TOO DUMB TO FIGURE IT OUT.

I guess there was no mansplaination available or they were out of Facebook For Dummies?

Yes except for real there is a REAL book, and this is latest edition and can be purchased on Amazon.

So basically, Manager Tommy Ryan says he initiated court proceedings because he didn’t know how to use Facebook? And the West Vincent Township Stupidvisors are ok with him doing this to a woman who used to be a employee and is a resident and taxpayer? Ok I can’t hold back…. are you f-cking kidding me right now?

West Vincent is known for the ridiculous, but this is astounding. And also very wrong. West Vincent Supervisors might as well just say they condone harassing their employees and residents.

And here is what I think they should do (but won’t): fire the manager and current solicitor. I do not know how much that solicitor has billed but that manager? $160K a year to harass a woman because of his own lack of knowledge and inability to admit he screwed up?

Here is what I think about the stupidvisors:

Chair Dana Allen: Weak, always looks like she is going to cry but is that because she constantly gets cut off and mansplained to by staff? Whatever the case may be, she is a WOMAN and has as chair allowed this to happen to ANOTHER WOMAN so she should RESIGN.

Vice Chair Bernie Couris: given his health issues which are no joke, he should have left the party quite a while ago. As it stands, he literally looks like he is in a stupor at every meeting. I would say he was an enlightened Democrat but at the end of the day he’s just a typical West Conshy former Republican politician and should also RESIGN. My opinion is he no longer gives a sheit, can’t you agree?

Then there is the new guy. His name is Sean Clark and he says almost nothing and is rumored to have taken a supervisor’s gig because he wants to steppingstone to a higher office which is probably why he doesn’t do much other than take up space, right? Well at least one of his kids is a girl so if he’s ok with a woman being treated by the township where he is an elected official and sworn to take care of his constituents no matter their sex, age, race, or gender then he deserves to be haunted into a very brief political career yes?

Here is the stuff from the docket:

Here is what Kristina had to say this afternoon:

Last word? I want people to let others know if West Vincent’s Fakebook page censors anyone in any way.

And residents need to start going to meetings. None of you should find your hard earned tax dollars being spent on utter bullsheit like this. But then again, this is a township where many of the residents don’t really think they deserve better do they?

Carry on.

welcome to west vincent, and can SOMEONE give them social media lessons and save the taxpayers money? is this now a malicious municipality?

BREAKING:once again, aqua fails the public – this time over data centers

I don’t know what to make out of this. We learned the news yesterday that there’s a magic will serve letter, but we were almost expecting a magic letter, weren’t we?

hey east whiteland show your work if aqua sent a will serve letter

Water Supply Agreement Aqua-Sentinel.pdfDownload

If you think Aqua shouldn’t be doing this, you can send emails to the company. You just have to be polite.

Also in case you wish to email East Whiteland, here is a letter I grabbed from Ginny Kerslake to share:

Sample email to send to
slambert@eastwhiteland.org
Pfixler@eastwhiteland.org
Csmith@eastwhiteland.org

Dear EWT Supervisors,

The Township did a grave disservice to our community in approving and recording the 2024 Data Center plan, all in violation of our township ordinance section 1 75–24.

This section explicitly requires a will-serve letter from Aqua AND a plan from Aqua of the proposed distributtion system demonstrating that the project will not degrade water service to existing customers.

The township was repeatedly reminded of this by ARRO in their consultant reviews of the Preliminary and Final Land Applications. The Township ignored this and approved the plan despite these deficiencies.

Yesterday the Township announced it is in receipt of a letter from Aqua confirming that the water for the 2024 approved plan will be supplied to Sentinel Green Fig despite AQUA saying in 2024 they could only supply roughly 20% of this.

The Township has not made this letter public. I urge that you do so immediately. At the very least community members should be able to expect transparency.

AQUA email addresses sourced from the Internet, and note that Christopher Franklin CEO lives in Willistown like Charlie Lyddane.

Marc Lucca (president) mlucca@essential.co

Christopher Franklin (CEO) CHFranklin@essential.co

President and Chief Operating Officer richard.fox@essential.co

Nathanial Manchin Director, Municipal Partnerships 512.990.4400 ext. 56125 jnmanchin@aquawater.com

Please show up at the next East Whiteland meeting in person if possible. Bring a friend! Call a reporter!

Next Wednesday! October 14th 6:30 PM (But come Early) East Whiteland Township Building 209 Conestoga Road Malvern, PA 19355

East Whiteland pretty much sucks right now. Oh and in spite of that fakakta document being something the public has a RIGHT to see, there was at least one email from a non- attorney saying basically they had to check with Aqua and the developer to make sure nobody had any objections to this being released and are they freaking kidding me?

So from a knowledgeable friend who read the letter, here is part of their opinion:

So here…

-Aqua has only committed to providing less than 66% of what was requested in 2024?

  • it’s less than 66% because the amount requested in 2024 did not include fire suppression
  • the required plan from Aqua demonstrating that existing customers will not experience degarded service is still missing isn’t it? ⁠ This plan is especially important now that Aqua is saying that they can provide three times what they committed to in 2024.

My acerbic , sarcastic takeaway? Well number one, can it now be said the developers not only use new math when it comes to things like height of structures and parking but also power and water? We’re currently in a drought and we’ve experienced a lot of drought situations the past couple of years so if Aqua couldn’t provide the water circa 2024 how is it they magically can supply the water now?

Oh and good ol’ Willistown Charlie? Spewing again on LinkedIn and maybe he needs to get off of his phone?

radnor township wants to ruin downtown wayne

Posted on by

I’m about to share the verbiage on a petition that the Wayne Business Association is circulating on behalf of Wayne business owners, property owners, and Radnor Township residents. If you are in any of these categories, please contact them to sign.

Radnor Township has done some
screwy things in recent past (like the Radnor commissioners and specifically commissioner Jack Larkin threatening a church in Wayne with them eminent domain over parking, and then attempting eminent domain poorly with Valley Forge Military Academy until one of their lawyers came calling at a meeting) but this takes the cake.

Essentially, they want to Lower Merion downtown Wayne (think Schauffele Plaza attempts every few years)

What does this mean? Essentially, they want to take a significant portion of valuable parking and turn it in to a fakakta pocket park. Do they forget about across Route 30 from this and down further east is a pocket park that no one uses now? And it was a little plot of land that former disgusting commissioner Bill Spingler had Radnor purchase. It was turned into a pocket park that no one uses. Also not the only one they don’t use. I will further note that Radnor now does not sufficiently care for all of the parks they own and for example when there’s a problem with a tree most places, do they try to treat it or keep on top of regular pruning? Or is it they just take the trees down?

I don’t know about you, but I think twice about going to downtown Wayne now just like downtown Ardmore and why?

Simple: parking.

This is not what the businesses nor residents need and this is somebody’s vanity project. I don’t know if it’s that stupid commissioner Cathy Agnew or the collective of them.

It’s not just the space they would lose for parking, it’s also common sense like the circulation in and out of these parking lots they want to mess with. I have to wonder if Septa has any thoughts about this not that they’re particularly intelligent these days.

I will note that when I go through Wayne on the way to Penn Medecine, that all the little North Wayne neighborhoods are packed with cars for the train and shopping already.

This is another bad plan for Radnor and it really needs to be stopped. Residents and businesses need to lawyer up. Someone like Phil Rosenzweig or from his firm. I don’t work for the man, but I do know the man and he works for people, not local governments.

📌 Support of WBA Statement| Signature Appreciated
THIS LETTER IS TO BE SENT TO THE RADNOR TOWNSHIP COMMISSIONERS. IT IS FROM THE WAYNE BUSINESS ASSOCIATION(WBA)

The WBA requests support from the local business community by providing your name and email on this form.


Dear Commissioners,
The WBA is writing to convey (and reiterate) our thoughts regarding the proposed parklet/public space on North Wayne Ave. After a meeting with commissioners to review the proposed plans / Q&A session; attending the public Board of Commissioners meeting; and subsequent review of the draft Wayne BOD Master Plan, we wanted to memorialize our understanding of the direction going forward.

The business owners on North Wayne Ave and the members that have signed the attached support letter are in consensus that the public space should be designed with the flexibility to allow egress to the N Wayne Ave parking lot, and to accommodate parking when the Wayne Commons does not have an event programmed which would require closing off the area to traffic and parking.

As was expressed during public comment, daytime use of this area for ingress/egress and parking is essential to the businesses on North Wayne Ave. and our understanding (after the BOC meeting) is that this will be accommodated in the design. These shop owners have significant investments on the street and are already operating under difficult conditions, maintaining convenience for their customers is extremely important. We do support the beautification and redesign of the space for public events but feel that it will cause more problems than its worth to have this blocked to traffic and parking when not in use with scheduled “formal programming”. We also support the notion that designing and constructing this area to the full scope will be better received by the businesses and community if it is planned with this flexibility in mind.

We are interested in having a role in the planning and discussion of this project and have a voice in its program and execution. The WBA values it relationship with the Township and we look forward to working together to continue to better our beautiful town.

Wayne Business Association📌

You can read about this project in Savvy:

Park vs. Parking: Radnor Commissioners set to vote on North Wayne Ave. ‘parklet’ plan
Radnor officials approve Wayne business district parking lot plan

This is a crappy vanity project. It will come at the expense of small businesses, property owners, and residents.

Radnor Township is a Home Rule Charter municipality. When is the last time residents gathered together to find out if they were actually following what they were supposed to be doing? I asked that question because their neighbors in Tredyffrin are also Home Rule Charter and they don’t seem to be doing what they’re supposed to be doing, do they?

Wayne is actually a walkable community and I think they’re about to ruin it. Please support the businesses in Wayne and the residents in North Wayne. This is plain and simple an Emperor’s New Clothes plan.

In today’s scintillating edition of East Whiteland is a shit show and they aren’t protecting residents comes the magical news that they now have a will serve letter from AQUA.

Show and tell time East Whiteland or it’s all just more bullshit, except it will be that in the end anyway.

Possibly related? Apparently there are a lot of problems in house in East Whiteland Township. Could it be the management style or the management itself?

IF NO ONE CAN SEE THE LETTER IS IT JUST A MUNICIPAL FAIRY TALE?

get ready to vote…in east whiteland

Posted on by

My ballot was slightly mutilated, but it arrived. I have already filled it in. Especially the additional supervisors question.

My impetus?

The data center.

Why?

Two supervisors whom in my opinion are afraid to say no, and a third who is a total nasty to residents, a form of sell out.

Members of the Great Valley Democrats literally went to community signing events to stop the ballot question from reaching the ballot (former supervisor Bill Holmes and former VP of ChesCo Dems Jerry Pyne). Now they are saying nothing…but in my humble opinion we know that they are most probably still quietly trying to quite literally stop the public from what they have the right and legal choice to want.

The other thing to note is the Vacancy Board chair in East Whiteland is Jerry Pyne right? So that makes him a tiebreaker in case a supervisor gets incapacitated, and it also gives him the ability to appoint someone, correct? So is it so far-fetched to think that if something happened he might appoint Bill Holmes again if the opportunity arose?

gosh this is illuminating isn’t it?

Now the East Whiteland Republican committee is busy, busy, busy posting Trump BS and sharing disbarred Rudy Giuliani posts and circulating their version of a sample ballot where they say no to 2 additional supervisors.

It kind of blows my mind that they are actively soliciting Republicans to say no to this because it’s actually an opportunity for them to level the playing field in East Whiteland because they aren’t getting any traction otherwise.

the ballot question in east whiteland township.

It is possible that it is a curiously just East Whiteland thing that both political parties are freaking out at the idea of two more supervisors. The politics in this particular township are not particularly enlightened and there has always been deal making between the two parties hasn’t there been? At different points in time I have almost felt like it’s a giant political party named Pat (like the Saturday Night Live skits of years past ) not really one thing or the other, but both.

East Whiteland residents will hopefully take this opportunity to push back where they can. The township has grown exponentially since inception of local government, and there needs to be more representation. Whichever political party ends up on the top of the dirt pile depends entirely on them. It would be nice to see supervisors who were registered independents.

But that’s a conversation for another day. I do believe there are people willing to run. We just have to get two more supervisors added.

So if you are a mail in ballot person, it’s easy same as if you vote in person. Say YES to two more supervisors and consider saying NO to Kristine Howard if you can manage it.

Make the future what you want.

Cornell University and Tompkins County? It’s called rape. When frat boys did this when I was in college they called it “riding the train.”

We are all Jane Doe. This is not some random “me too” rebirth.

I would say it was time for the stuff to stop, but since rape has existed since the beginning of time, I don’t hold out much hope.

I would also say it’s time that we stop blaming the victims, but that’s another thing that is as old as time.

ABC News had a report on tonight and I can’t find a YouTube on it yet so I took a video.

rainy day sunday simple

After a long weekend including time at the emergency vet, and given the weather, simple comfort was what I wanted for dinner.

A few days ago I made a roast chicken (fresh organic chicken from Whitehorse Farm in Berwyn) and saved the bones and carcass and pan juices.

Late this morning I made a batch of bone broth. Lots of fresh herbs and celery, carrots, onions, garlic. Sea salt and pepper. I also added boneless skinless chicken breasts for shredding which I removed about an hour before I strained the broth. I used my 8 quart vintage Dansk Kobenstyle but it was only 2/3 full when I began cooking)

After the bone broth was made (it takes a few hours covered on a low flame after initially bringing everything to a boil), I strained out the bones and vegetables. I added the chicken which I had shredded, two cups of Greek orzo (it’s longer), 1 can of drained beans (pinto today), a dozen leftover cherry tomatoes from the vine in my garden, and a couple of big sage leaves, and a Parmesan cheese rind (I save cheese rinds and ends of cheese for added flavor.)

Then I bring everything to a boil again and reduce the heat to very low and cover. I stir occasionally until done. The orzo absorbs almost but not quite all of the broth, and the tomatoes cook and burst open adding even more flavor.

Is this a precise recipe? No but the easiest and most delicious food doesn’t necessarily happen that way.
