Yep, The Day confirms Doug's rumor.

And I was just watching Susette Kelo broadcasting from in front of her house that
"None of us are selling, our homes were taken by eminent domain"

Oh man, I think they all may have sold.... :'(




Well, if they did sell, I hope they bankrupt the state with the amount of money they get.



As for me, I'm a stayin'.

It really ticks me off, as a long-time Mac lover, that I can't view this with the version of QuickTime that's available to me as a user of MacOS X 10.2.8, especially when I can have the latest version of QT on any old Win98 machine!

Any chance you can make a QT6 version?

Good for you.

Please update us after you've talked with your neighbors, and with your landlord.

False alarm, The Kelo 4 are still holding out.

So did the two sellers get the money they wanted or something?

Latest News from Ft. Trumbull:
One more property owner has sold to the city, no word on who.
Governor Rell has recommended that the City give the titles back to the rightful owners.
Titles in which the City has the first right of refusal. 
And if anyone on Goshen St. (Christofaro or Beyer) wants to stay, the City will move their house to the other block (Kelo and VonWinkle's block).
Mayor Sabilla says no one gets titles only life residency, and no investment properties are included in that offer.

Latest Rumors from Ft Trumbull:
All property owners will sell, except Susette Kelo, who will stay in her house.


More details soon.

Kat Kanning

Spunky lady.  Will she need help from us?

Tom Sawyer

I'm there if at all humanly possible.

You guys need to have videotape 'locked and loaded' as well as web camera ready just in case of sneak attack.

Hi, Lauren here, resident of the embattled Ft. Trumbull neighborhood of New London, Connecticut.  Day 292.

Status of utilities:
electricity     On
gas             On
water           On
phone           On
cable           On

Latest News: Rich Beyer sold his two properties to the city.

Officially down to the Kelo 3.

I'm still asking all of the original holdouts to make their mark in the concrete of our monument.
It will be an inspiration for those who hold out against tyranny.
Rich held out 2010 days.  I've only been here 292.

If she accepts the "lifetime residency" deal from the city
and pays her rent
and back taxes
and property taxes,
and state taxes,
and the I.R.S.,
she will be left alone.

Well, she will not likely be pulled out of her house kicking and screaming anytime soon.

Possibly another volitile city council meeting
Monday June 5th 2006
New London, CT
7PM

The Governor asks the city council to give back the titles.  The Mayor says titles shmitles.

I forsee another possible pitchfork showing.
I imagine there will be lots of media present also.

Kat Kanning

We'll have to see what we got going on on Monday  :pitchfork:  (New emoticon for Lauren!)
