Meeting Minutes

Dear PittGirl,

I have meetings at my new job every other Wednesday. And my supervisor has taken to using the phrase "moving forward" at least four times each meeting.

Last week it took every ounce of my energy not to yell "Drink!!!" each time he repeated that phrase. Just thought that would make you smile.

Bill and the Pigeons

In the Post Gazette today Tony Norman wrote a column about former President Bill Clinton's role as a speaker at a luncheon for Mayor Raventstahl.



First off, the article repeatedly mentioned pigeons which probably sent shudders down PittGirl's spine, all the way down to her do-me boots. And the article mentioned PittGirl's departure from the burgh-blog-o-sphere.



Secondly, I am happy to see that Luke is making an effort to secure his spot in the burgh-political-sphere. (I've discovered the - and I love it.). The column mentions Luke making Pittsburgh his life long home and I hope he does.



However I can also imagine this turning into a quality resume builder for Luke's road to Pennsylvania avenue. He has the opportunity to help our city regain prominence as a city outsiders long to come to. A city to be mentioned. Along with NYC and Chicago and Washington DC. I see it happening. And what could be better than a President from the burgh?
