Hai Karate? That was a men’s after shave from the 60’s. In any case cut non essential services. Get out of the business of what you want and do what is needed. The main reason for government is public safety. I really hate to see politicians cut police and fire while leaving non essential services alone. Do that an lose your job!!!!!!

No, I think that is all, you may cut, but not spill even a drop of blood–sounded pretty good in reference to budget cut that will effect people.
Maybe we’ll find out later that the CEO’s wife disguised herself as male financial consultant…

Maybe they should follow Sonny’s example and pray for rain.
Has the CEO or any administrators offered to take pay cuts? at least before they start cutting police, fire, emergency.
Sounds like they have grasped at straws with the budget and it needs to be cut, but choosing where to cut–like Shylock, may be tricky, and leave a lot of folks by the way side. I’m glad my kids go to CSD.
