Did you see that Pampers truck pull up to City Hall this morning? The Mayor ordered a whole palette for the crying babies of the Hotel Subcommittee on Hoboken's City Council. Yep, those Council babies have been howling since yesterday afternoon; that's when the Mayor sent an email titled: "Help convince the Council to vote YES!"
Hoboken's adult mayor wrote:
"We need you show up to ensure that the Councilmembers put politics aside and support these benefits at Wednesday's council meeting!"
Wait.. why did Daddy Bhalla send an email titled, "Help convince the Council to vote YES!"?
Because that same morning, one of the Hotel Subcommittee members sent this letter to City Attorney Joseph Maraziti:
Holy Dirty Diaper!
When the mayor discovered that the Hotel Subcommittee was secretly trying to tank the hotel project by eliminating KMS givebacks-- including the swimming pool, classrooms, uptown library branch and education funding-- the mayor went directly to the people.
And that is why diapers are exploding all over Facebook, Twitter and in your Inbox! Because the Mayor smelled a very dirty diaper.... the Hotel Subcommittee went behind his back to gut the KMS giveback package, which would invariably sink the whole project. That's why he wrote:
"I strongly believe this agreement, which my team spent months negotiating, is a major benefit to our residents. But, to make this agreement a reality, the City Council must vote to approve it at the next Council meeting.
That’s why your help is critical - we can’t take any chances on this important vote. We need you show up to ensure that the Councilmembers put politics aside and support these benefits at Wednesday’s council meeting! Unfortunately, if the Council votes no to this agreement, we will lose out on the $4.85 million in funding for our community.
Here are two ways you can play an important role.
1) Show up to the Council meeting on Wednesday at 7:00 pm at City Hall (94 Washington Street) and speak in favor of the agreement! The Councilmembers need to hear directly from residents. Come make your voices heard and ask the Councilmembers to vote YES!
2) Sign this petition to the Hoboken City Council created by members of the HPEF, strongly urging the Councilmembers to vote YES!
Know what happens when a big baby gets angry? He/she writes a letter called, "I am so angry."

| WAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! |
Other angry babies kick sand on Twitter! (Ooops, I forgot that baby blocked me!)
The thing you need to remember about babies is that they are all-id; adorable bundles of pleasure-seeking impulses that require immediate gratification, uncaring about what they destroy. Whether they're squeezing a tube of toothpaste all over your sofa or throwing a guy off the Planning Board 'cause he supports the mayor-- if it feels good, do it. That's how babies think. That's what babies do.
But you know, when babies get out of hand, adults have to step in. And they will, on November 5, 2019.
