Shame on Short for taking money

Allen Short's picture with the article "Boost in pay for ex-MID-chief?" (Nov. 18, Page A-1) makes him look like the cat that ate the canary.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could all use our employers' (MID ratepayers') money to set up a new obscure little company and draw a salary for an additional year after retirement.

Mr. Short, you should be ashamed of yourself. Have you no conscience?

Mr. Short, I'll think of you often, say every time I pay my bill.
