A Quiet Thursday Evening

   How best to spend a quiet Thursday evening? Watch pre-season football,
   the Vikings and the Cowboys? Watch Barack Obama worship himself at
   Invesco Field, accepting the nomination of his party for President of
   the United States? No, I passed all that up to kibitz the first
   meeting of the District 281 Financial Advisory Council.
   Obviously this had to largely be an organizational meeting, members
   introducing themselves, receiving handouts and a preliminary briefing,
   setting up the calendar and the agenda and so on. The next meeting is
   in three weeks, on Thursday, September 18. I won't have much to report
   on until the third meeting I suspect, probably in early October.
   The only notable change from plan was the departure of Assistant
   Superintendent Nancy Rajanen, one of the three District members
   specified in the by laws. Superintendent Stan Mack is filling that
   position given that Rajanen's job is not being replaced, at least not
   now.
