The Kanjo - O'Brien triple top secret deal
The theory I’m about to explain may have most of you thinkin’ I’ve been smokin’ crack.
Remember when Congressman Paul Kanjorski beat Hazleton Mayor Lou Barletta?
Barletta won Luzerne County and I believe he was up until Lackawanna County’s numbers came in.
Kanjo won Lackawanna County by (I think) 13,000 votes.
We wrote here Kanjo cut a deal with Lackawanna County Commissioner Corey O’Brien. That deal being O’Brien would deliver Lackawanna County and O’Brien would be next in line to succeed Kanjo. Read More ...

Who’s going to get all that action now?
Mohegan Sun.
You see, with the economy in the crapper, tax revenues are in the crapper as well.
Well, considering the amount of cash that flowed thru Pat Patte’s place, all that action now has to go to Mohegan Sun.

PA swimmer breaks ten year old record
A record that stood at Pittston Area for the past ten years has been broken.
Pittston Area swimmer Samantha Scialpi recently swam the 100 yard back stroke in one minute and 6.67 seconds.
The record previously had been held by Carly Testa.
“Most swimmers can’t swim free style that fast,” Scialpi’s coach, Amy Hazlet said.
At this past Pittston Area Board meeting, Hazlet had a special presentation honoring Scialpi.
