Missouri ethics commission web site
Time and time again I read on the blog how terrible certain City officials are. About the only thing I haven't seen yet is one of them accused of taking the Lindbergh baby!
If you really believe it's that awful here, I have just made things easy for you!
If you click on the header you will see a Missouri ethics complaint form. Please fill it out, sign your name, and send it in! Simple, you bet, and you can say you did something about the "problem?"
Only one thing my friends, be very sure your right when you do it!

What is the total dollar value for all of the fringe benefits that Crestwood Swim Club/Rosebrook Real Estate Company received for sending their 50 parking spaces for $1.00?
New Sewer System?
New Water Line?
New Electric Lights?
Free Parking for life - eternity?
Please tell our Mayor, Crestwood Swim Club members and Mayor's cousins, thank you for giving THF Realty their $295,000 for a no deed transfer real estate transaction for a "safe pool".
It is great to have a safe pool in the City of Crestwood.
Is Whitecliff a safe pool?
Can we donate some of the $295,000 to the following pools:
Warson Woods?
Brentwood Swim Club?
Mapelwood?
Indian Hills Swim Club?
MacKenzie Swimming Club Inc.?

Plunging into Public Pools' Contentious Past

A Social History of Swimming Pools in America Contested Waters by
Jeff Wiltse
"When black Americans gained equal access to muncipal pools, white swimmers generally abandoned them for private pools. Desegration was a primary cause of the proliferation of private swimming pools that occurred after the mid-1950s."
And when was Crestwood Swim Club/Rosebrook Real Estate Company formed?
1954?
What a coincidence?
Is that why the Crestwood Swim Club members mention the safety of their private pool?
Which politicians and lawyers are members of the Crestwood Swim Club/Rosebrook Real Estate Company?
Just state the facts!
No deed transfer!
What was the "payback" for the City of Crestwood to pay only $1.00 for 50 parking spaces from Rosebrook Real Estate Company/Crestwood Swim Club?
Ask Alderman Chris Pickel?
Is the answer to "Is Whitecliff a safe pool" No because they let Tom Ford in their pool?
Tom,
Can the Crestwood Swim Club/Rosebrook Real Estate Company show all of their utility bills from 1954?
Water?
Gas?
Electric?
Grass Cutting?
Telephon?
Tom,
Which pool do you hang out?

Can Alderman Chris Pickel move the U.S. American Flag off the bathroom entrance?
Only 48 hours to Labor Day!
Yes of course the pool gets free sewer, water, electric and trash all paid for by the City. Members kids also get free tuition at SEMO, a lifetime supply of plantars peanuts and all of the gasoline they want at the Quick Trip up on Big Bend.
Tom,
Your Blog has outlived it's usefulness. When the only posts you get sound like a broken record or a parrot that says the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again, it get's very old. See what I mean? It's the old addage, Garbage in, Garbage out.
9:59 PM blogger: Well it sure isn't the "private" one! In fact I don't hang out at a pool, a bar, a swim club, or a pool hall!
If I wanted a pool, I would build one in my back yard (we blue collar folk's do that,) and not in someone elses back yard!
9:48 PM blogger: How can you say that? Why, I have managed to raise your ire, your blood pressure, and if your not careful, your heart rate!
I think it's doing a marvelous job from where I sit!

Actually, the pool WAS built in their own backyard. It was built on their property that they owned for close to 50 years. Property that the other folks did not own. Also, arent you a member of the Masons. Can women be Masons? Is that a private club? Is it selective in its memberships? ARe there any African American or Asian members?
"arent you a member of the Masons. Can women be Masons? Is that a private club? Is it selective in its memberships? Are there any African American or Asian members?"
Why yes I am a member of the Masonic lodge (32nd degree, and very proud of it!)
The masons are not a "private club" but rather open to all that ask to join! We have African American's (Prince Hall,) Asian, Hispanic, Russian, Jew's, and just about everyone you can think of as members!
In fact it's a world wide group of people dedicated to helping one another. If I were to be stranded in Iraq a brother Mason would be honor bound to see that I returned home safely, Would a swim club member do that?
You really should get a book or two and read up on the lodge. Why we might eaven accept you!
Now as to the back yard remark, tell that to the folks on Bali Ct. and see what response you garner!

What about women?--are 50% of the world's population denied membership?

Well, once again you speek from the heart, but with no knowledge of what you speak of!
The answer is NO! There is the Masonic order of the Eastern Star for the ladies, and for the younger women, the Job's Daughter's!
By the way, the order (Male or Female) does not require that a "family photo" be sent in with the application. Now who would do that in this day an age?
By the way, is the Knights of Columbus for Cathlic's only?, do they have any of the lost 50%?
Try another subject my friend, your a lost soul on this one.
Tom Ford
Were the Knights of Columbus formed because the Masons did not allow Catholics to join?
Could a blog be started that is dedicated just to swim club comments, because the rest of Crestwood would like to move on with other discussions.
"Were the Knights of Columbus formed because the Masons did not allow Catholics to join?"
Wrong again, but hey your consistant! I know plenty of people of the catholic faith in masonry. It was my religion (luthern) that had a hard time of it, but they got over it!
I think the K of C was formed so they could have a sword in church (just kidding)

Ok, who started that blog? I coulden't find any reference to the origionator at all.
It apperars that this has been going on for some time now, and none of us knew about it? Interesting to say the least!
Well, whomever it is, your not going to be a favorite of the pool set, believe me!
Tom Ford
from the looks of it, nobody reads that blog. there have only been 18 hits since April of this year.
I think more people will read it now that it is known.
Betchersweetbippythey will.
By the way, can anyone tell me, is Robert Golterman a member of the private Crestwood Swim Club? He served as alderman with Gary Vincent, both of whom had input on the movememt of the swim club to its disastrous location. Why, then, is Mr. Golterman advising this board in any way shape or form about paying teh 295,000 to THF?????????
Whatcha wanna bet no one answers this blog?
This by the way is a findoutable.

7:40 Pm blogger: use your education for a change, re post when you rise above nasty words!
Ton Ford
Is it true that Attorney Robert Golterman and Attorney Gary Vincent graduated from the same law school and undergraduate college?
St. Louis University Law School?
Rockhurst University?
Skip and Sarah’s mother served apple pie and divided it into eight pieces. Sarah had one piece and Skip had two. What time did Skip and Sarah’s father come home from work?
If Fred got a 30-year mortgage for his home at 7 % fixed rate, and Joe got an adjustable rate mortgage, and Steve got a 15-year mortgage at 6 % fixed rate, then what color was Steve’s house?
If Ed from the EPA had a BLT and Dan from the DEA had a PBJ, why did Frieda from the FBI have a salad?
How many salads are served in Crestwood?
Should we have an investigation of salads?
Will they lettuce investigate?
How do you stop a circus?
Go for the juggler.
Did you hear about the man who fell into the upholstery machine?
He's all right now. In fact he's fully recovered.
Do they sell coal at Kohl's?
Martha for Mayor in'08!!!
Sounds good to me. I don't know if she will.
Is Richard Bland or Tim Trueblood going to run for mayor?
10:58 PM
I would think any questions about Robert Golterman should be directed either to the man himself or to Mayor Roy Robinson.
I think if you want to know if Rich Bland or Tim Trueblood are going to run for Mayor, you should ask them.
Ok.
Mr. Trueblood, are you going to run for mayor?
Mr. Bland, are you going to run for mayor?
I sure hope Mr. Bland does, I could use a laugh!
Tom Ford
It couldn't be any funnier than your failed run for the Board of Aldermen!
2:05 what was their answer when you asked them? You did call them up didn't you? If not, then one can only guess that you really don't care to know their answer.
Wanna bet? THIS WOULD BE A SCREAM! If you remember, Mr. Bland had no problem with sending out literature on the day before the vote, saying his opponent was for "eminent domanin" eaven when he knew it wasn't true!
His actions on the dias (ignoring the citizens when thy speak, as well as his so called background in "criminal justice") do not show me any "leadership" at all!
In fact, quite the opposite. He is a typical "bureaucrat," one with knowledge of his area, but nothing more!
Tom Ford
Do they read this blog? If so, they can answer here.
"In fact, quite the opposite. He is a typical "bureaucrat," one with knowledge of his area, but nothing more!"
Tom--are you describing yourself in this paragraph?
Why don't you ask them if they read this blog and report to us your findings?
