We often wonder how Bill Randell’s mind works. Recently another one of his publicity masterpiece found its way online.
We suppose to polish their tarnished image after their failed 3 Stooges Christmas Show. To refresh your memory, Paulie Collyer (of NOLA infamy) launched an attack on Wonderland from
Not surprisingly Bill Randell had no issue with that; contrary to his Christmas sermon expounding on his daughter's 2nd grade cyberbullying lesson. Seems some folks don't practice what they preach.
So Paulie ranted into the wee hours of Christmas Eve, calling Wonderland a den of cyberbullies. A stroke of propagandistic genius if ever there was one, hoping to gain the moral upper-hand in the battle for Wusta's hearts and minds. Some good that did him eh?
Did you know that Rosalie Tirella tried that tactic too in her War on Wonderland. Yeah you read that right. Of all people, Rosalie Tirella calling folks cyberbullies. There’s gotta be some sort of stupid award for that.
Let us editorialize here for a moment. We think Paulie Collyer would be better accommodated focusing his energies elsewhere – like cleaning up Chandler St. He is after all the president of the Chandler Business Association. So start presidenting. Call Paulie at 617-625-2140.
So here we are, a month later Bill Randall took a stab at damage control. A rather lamentable attempt - a post about Harry T, referencing a story in the T&G about the local sheriff using a tracking device for missing persons and Bill Randell in his inimitable logic makes a direct connection between NOLA’s charity proceeds from 2009 (the date on the check) and the article from 2012. Quite the leap eh?
So let’s connect the dots here. The sole evidence is a 3 year old photo of The Stooges with a pseudo-check. Note the check is made out to the NAA (National Autism Association) not to the Worcester County Sheriff’s Department or any local government or private agency. And the T&G article makes no mention of any of The 3 Stooges or NOLA, yet Bill bestows full credit on Harry Tembenis for the sheriff’s initiative.
But there is a still bigger question that remains unanswered and it’s been often repeated here. That is, whether that 2009 pseudo-check ever made it into the coffers of the NAA? In fact we addressed that issue a couple years ago in a post about the hoopla surrounding NOLA, Paulie’s money losing pseudo-charity event - whether any money was actually donated to the NAA. To this day no proof has ever been made public. The picture is hardly proof. A cashed check is - both sides. Harry Tembenis knows that, he works at State Street Bank.
We would like to believe that The 3 Stooges are not just barefaced publicity seekers fixated on their public personas, but upstanding citizens with honorable intentions. As it stands, their track record of social contributions is at best - questionable. Sadly this town has seen more than its share of BS-artists and hypocrites touting their fictitious achievements. Kissing one’s ass is not only disingenuous but unhygienic.
So, here’s to you Bill Randell, Harry Tembenis and Paulie Collyer, Wonderland’s Blogging Fool Award. This time you really earned it.
Hey guys, suggest you get a publicist. Heard Rosalie Tirella is looking for clients.
