Yo. Snarky Boy's got the write up about the hearing HERE.

Sheehan was a bore.
 
Yeah, right Snarky Bore. You're post is about as dry as the paint you supposedly apply to walls (again, yeah right!) This one was a bit too easy to report on, even for you. Talk about stating the obvious. You're treading on Odum ground here.
 
There does seem to be a lack of
excitement here!
