Slow Saturday Special: Waiting For the Bell to Ring

I guess I'll sit here and watch a movie:

"Film studio executives making progress; State approves impact report" by Christine Legere, Globe Correspondent | October 31, 2009

PLYMOUTH - After two years of plodding through the permitting process, the team of California film executives who comprise Plymouth Rock Studios have achieved two major milestones in the last few weeks that bring their dream of movie-making in Plymouth much closer to reality.

State Environmental Affairs Secretary Ian Bowles notified Plymouth Rock officials yesterday that their exhaustive Environmental Impact Report for the studio project - a required permitting step - has been approved.

“It read like a love letter,’’ said elated Plymouth Rock Studios cofounder David Kirkpatrick, of Bowles’s 30-page notification.

Yup, with CHANGE in it!

You know WHERE you are kissing, right, Bay State taxpayers?

The complex will allow producers to make movies and television shows, from start to finish, right on the property - something never before possible on the East Coast....

Oh, joy, I'M SO HAPPY PROFITABLE HOLLYWOOD is RIPPING US OFF for the "HONOR!"

Bowles praised studio officials for incorporating several energy-saving measures in the building plan. The studio will be LEED-certified, keeping its carbon footprint to a minimum.

Literally -- and the state approves. Working for you, are they?

Bowles also noted “the studio would represent a major step forward for the growing film industry in Massachusetts,’’ and added “the project has the potential to create a major economic engine for the southeast region,’’ generating more than 3,000 jobs.

I'm so tired of promises that are lies and the agenda-pushing, lying liars who promise them.

At WHAT COST?

Just a few weeks ago, the studio group announced it had acquired investors for the $550 million project cost. “Hopefully, this will be harvest time,’’ Kirkpatrick said....

Yup, MONEY from the TAXPAYER TREE!!!!!
