"PICKING UP" -- I HAVE BEEN THRU THE STORIES ABOUT TRASH TRUCKS, THE CAN TRUCKS, THE BROOM TRUCKS, AND AM INTO THE SNOW PLOWING AND SPREADERS. AND HOW THE LAST ABSOLUTE SNOW DISASTER-- THE MAYOR AND DIRECTOR WERE AWOL AND THEN TRIED TO GET CONTROL OF THE PRESS REPORTS ON WHY SAN EMPLOYEES WERE CAUSING TEH PROBLEM BY SLEEPING IN THEIR TRUCKS IN BROOKLYN, WHEN IN FACT THEIR RULES DICTATED WHEN STUCK, THEY STAY WITH THEIR TRUCK TIL RESCUED. AND THEY WERE STUCK. WORDS LIKE " MAYOR BLOOMBERG" WERE MENTIONED...
