PHOTO INDEX: HAZLE TOWNSHIP ATTORNEY PAULA RADDICK AND WILKES BARRE TOWER AND CITY GOVERNMENT PROVOCATEUR BOB KADLUBOSKI.
AN OSCAR PERFORMANCE?
If there was a movie involving a tow truck driver, a city council and a small sized eastern city, then Bob Kaduluboski would be playing the angry man. At Thursday night’s city council meeting in Wilkes Barre, the “Bobster” was at a slow boil but then when he didn’t get answers to his questions, because Council thought they were inappropriate, all democracy ended as the gavel pounded adjournment and other items were tabled. Chair woman Kathy Kane berated the media earlier saying that the collected bunch never focused on good news. Local film producer Scott Spinucci started to film the meetings that night and as luck would have it for him, all hell broke loose. Spinucci, owns Integrated Media Services, and said he plans to film all council meetings. He will upload them to YouTube so people who cannot attend meetings can see what’s happening.
Kadluboski, of City-Wide Towing turned a quiet affair into a 3 ring circus. He questioned how Kane's son found a job for the state Department of Revenue, continued to argue against the city's towing policies and hurled insults at deputy city attorney William Vinsko. Why Vinsko? Because it was Vinsko - who drafted the city's towing ordinance . The Bonster labeled Vinsko as "nothing more than an idiot, imbecile lawyer." As if lawyers don’t hear that every day!
So in the end, Kane was angry because she had to adjourn the meeting, Kadluboski was mad because he felt nothing was wrong with his questions and feels that again he was shut down by the Council. Film maker Spinucci was torqued too because he felt that there was a freedom of speech issue involved and questioned Council members Tony Thomas and Bill Barrett as to the quick hook. Both men said that the questioning was way out of line and had nothing to do with city business. True. But when can those questions be asked? Kadluboski wants to know, I’m sure city residents do too. And certainly Scott Spinucci does too. Here’s the video, the action doesn’t start until about 11 minutes and 30 seconds in. By the way, Kadluboski was the only resident speaking at Council that night.

LOOKEE HERE!
The Citizen’s Voice reported that State police arrested a Maryland man early Friday for exposing himself to a woman at the Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs. A Maryland man faces charges of indecent exposure and disorderly conduct. The 57-year-old was taken into custody around 3:38 a.m. on the gaming floor near a bank of slot machines. A female custodial worker told casino security that the man who was seated, said something to her as she swept the floor in front of him. She looked up and observed that the man had exposed himself. The gambler was taken into custody, charged and jailed overnight in the Luzerne County Correctional Facility. He appeared for morning arraignment but then was remanded to prison in lieu of $2,000 bail.
MEDIA MATTERS
What’s broadcast broadcast news legend David DeCosmo up to? The new edition of his series 'People, Places, and Things' will be added to the program rotation at ECTV (Comcast Ch 19) beginning the week of February 28th. It's a behind the scenes look at the Scott Township Police Department. The week's guest on ECTV Live with my co host Judge Tom Munley will be Deb Petterson of the Voluntary Action Center in Scranton. ECTV Live airs at Noon and Midnight throughout the week.

Another woman to vote for... Yes!
I am taking the Steve Corbett approach to voting; "If a candidate has a penis, I' not voting for him."
Although, I will admit to not chopping off my penis ala Corbett, I will vote for non-penis candidates
The video is great stuff! However, he should post just the train wreck. Sounds kinda like Wyoming Area.
The "MAD" tower certainly has the right to attend council meetings and complain about the Glodzik towing fees because Glodzik does charge outrageous cmounts for a simple tow and then it's hard to get your car out of storage because of the hours he is open. But, and it's a huge BUT, Kadabalaonyski has no right to go after Kathy Kane for her son at a public meeting and he as no right to attack the city attorney the way he did. I would not have shut down the meeting, I would have had the idiot dragged out in cuffs for violating council procedures and disturbing the peace. Citizens have the right to se their government in rogress without nuts like Kadabalonyski distrupting meetings and dragging them out into marathon meetings. I think a permanet ban should be placed on the jerk.
So the guy at the Cacino lost his pants at the machine and they make a big thing out of it. I was told it was no big thing and should have been overlooked.
I like DeCosmo and think he always does a good job. He is a pro, but the Judge looks like he is totally lost and making a hostage tape or some such thing! DeCosmo can and should be allowed to go it alone.
It would improve the program.
Kadlaboski is a loose cannon. I wouldn't want to be around when he does his finale. I cannot understand how so many people seem to be afraid of that goof, and patronize him in so many different ways. Throw the idiot in jail and let him and his big mouth cool off for a while. He's like the proverbial bully going around picking on people. When he tows someone illegally and they go to the police dept., he pulls in his horns and trys to kiss their ass and give them a sob story about how it can cause so much trouble for him. Take away that gun under his coat and see how goddamn brave he is then. Mark these words ... someday he's going to kill someone.
Yonki, Yonki, Yonki, seems like you've been touching some nerves and sensitive areas this past week with your subject matters. Good work!
Nobody asked me, but isn't Bob Kadlubosky a dead ringer for Oasis frontman Noel Gallagher??
