This goes beyond horse pucky. This is whale shit on the bottom of the ocean, which is where Senator James Alesi (R) of New York State has chosen to put his brain and his heart.
You need to read Part I of this in order to fully appreciate the full details. Today, exactly three years after Mr. Alesi was trespassing illegally on private property and broke his leg, he decided to serve papers to the owners of the house. They just happen to be a retired couple in their seventies, on a fixed income, who wanted to build a new, smaller home, and retire comfortably. Little did they know they'd be sued by a New York State senator.
This is the latest:
1. Today, exactly three years after Alesi's fall, the statute of limitations runs out for the owners to counter sue for illegal trespassing. Coincidence? I don't think so. The owners didn't sue Alesi three years ago for illegal trespassing because they felt bad that he broke his leg and didn't want to add insult to injury with bad press for the senator, so they let the whole thing pass.
2. Senator Alesi makes over $80K per year as a NY Senator, one of the highest paid in the United States.In addition, he operates other outside businesses. Now he wants to sue a senior couple on a fixed income.
I'm not one to be all hearts and flowers, but to make matters worse, the senior couple gives back to their community. She volunteers her time at the food cupboard and he volunteers his time at their church. These are the salt-of-the-earth kind of people I like to call friends.
I'm so steaming, hopping, mad right now, I could spit rusty nails. The taxpayers of the city of Rochester are asking Alesi to either drop the case, or resign from office. I'll do everything in my power to make sure both of those things happen.
In my contrite opinion: I think Senator James Alesi (R) New York is suffering from dementia. His heart is another story. I believe it got lost in that black abyss called POLITICS.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot, I hope the fleas of a thousand camels infest his armpits, and 86 pounds of frozen horse pucky mysteriously shows up on his doorstep.
In case you were wondering what horse pucky is, you came to the right place. Pucky is synonymous with the other four letter word that begins with an "s" and ends with a "t" but is too crass to mention in polite company. There's a lot of pucky flying around these days and this blog proves it.

So Sue Me: Part I
This just goes to show you how skewed the thinking is of at least one of our local politicians. Local NY Senator, James Alesi, is suing a Perinton couple because he fell in their home, which was under construction, claiming they did not take the necessary measures to ensure the safety of the unfinished house.
Here's what happened:
1. In 2008, the house was under construction. A stairwell was still unfinished, so a ladder was the contractor's only access from a basement to the first floor, according to the builder.
2. Alesi and another individual went inside the unfinished house, not knowing it was owned, through an unlocked rear door. There was nothing indicating the house was a model available for viewing. In fact, it was private property, and was still under construction.
3. Alesi proceeded to climb the ladder from the basement to the first floor, then fell while climbing, breaking his leg. Now he claims he suffers permanent injuries.
4. Alesi is now suing the builder and the owners after a two year period of time.
My burning question along with the builder is, "Why would anybody other than the house's owner or builder think they had a right to scale a ladder within a privately owned structure under construction!?"
If this is the kind of horse pucky a NY Senator can pull on NY State constituents, what does he do when he's in Albany!? I'm sure that's the tip of the iceberg as far as politicians are concerned.
Personally, I'm totally disgusted with our local Senator. Again, I concur with the builder when he says, "I guess anybody can sue anybody."
