I have yet to figure out what Albero really wants, a great big medal or a chest to pin it on. He seems to take great delight once again in exposing screen names on the watch desk. The names he has exposed have been well known for many years now, and in reality not a single name on the site means a thing. It is far too easy to deceive the readers of that bulletin board and it has been done with great frequency.
For instance it is possible, and it has been done, that several people will share the shame screen name and password in order to gain access to the site. In this manner several people can post opposing or like views on a subject all the while protecting each other from accusations. I know for a fact this is done in the forums of a neighboring county. Three people were sharing the screen name and posting at will. One of the three also told me that he/she actually had other screen names that were shared with other participants and not shared with the other two in the original group. So you see how wide and deep this deception can go?
I am also aware of several individuals that have as many as six different screen names, and possibly even more. One poster on that forum used to argue issues with him self and take different sides of an issue just to keep the pot stirred. It was truly fun to watch, especially when a no-nothing outsider entered the forum in an effort to create dissention.
The two names Albero recently “exposed” are long since gone from Salisbury Fire Department. To what end Albero feels this is pertinent information is beyond me. I cannot make the connection to Darrin Scott being promoted and his father Joe Scott once being in the department and also at one time a city councilman. Albero seems to have some dislike for Darrin because of his promotion. Having known Darrin for many, many years I can attest to his ability as a firefighter and an officer. His father, Joe Scott was also and officer for a period of time and his abilities were equally as good. It appears to me that the acorn fell very close to the tree and Darrin is filling his Dad’s shoes quite nicely. Joe certainly has a lot to be proud of in Darrin. Albero speaks disparagingly of Darrin when in fact I doubt that he even knows him.
Again it appears Albero is depending on the dregs of the department for information. Dregs far to recreant to stand and speak for him or herself, engage in any appeal process to address their grievances, or accept what they have earned, which is obviously not enough for promotion. This is not determined by a singular entity in the department, but by a panel of their peers.
Their only semi-intelligent act is to engage Albero to speak for them so they can, through Albero, remain anonymous. I fear they are only fooling themselves on that matter. Time will tell.
Additionally I would like to thank the folks who have commented favorably in my behalf over the watch desk issue. I appreciate the fact that common sense prevails over speculation.

Great post. However, Joe A is not particularly interested in fact. Sensationalism is more his game.
Darrin and his wife are good friends of mine as well. When his first negative remarks were posted, Darrin's wife called me. She says Darrin has never met him and she could not understand why he would say such things. I simply told her "That's just Joe".
The truth hurts and it creates instant denial.
What is being denied?
Truth?----That a term not at all familiar to you.
Well, i suppose here's my 2 cents worth. As for truth, i've only seen speculations and accusations, nothing really proven other than Mr. Albero "claiming" he knows this that & the other. I'll have to agree this time with Tomcat, this is simply an attempt for sensationalism.
I've called a few friends in the area that are firefighters with other departments in the county, all say this whole thing is totally rediculous and isn't proving anything, i have to agree. They've all told me that there are some posters that have up to 10 different names on the watchdesk and that sharing the password with others has always been done. So saying that a name on there is a certain person, just no way to really prove that person actually posted a certain comment. They said that there are those that everyone knows who they are, they don't hide it or deny it.
I found it interesting for Mr. Albero to accuse and be SOOO certain, that ALL the anonymous and degrading posts are Salisbury firefighters, better yet, that they are PAID firefighters. The people i talked to assured me that there are NUMEROUS persons within the area fire service that they know for a fact enjoy and actually participate in fueling anything against Salisbury Fire Department.
Mr. Albero, you're simply on a witches hunt and the witches have you beat, they know you enjoy slamming anything to do with the City of Salisbury and they are feeding you any type of gasoline that you're willing to throw at the fire you want to burn the City with.
I have been watching all of this from afar, in lurker status, and I have refrained thus far from posting so as not to add to the circus . . .
I hesitate even now to comment, for fear I might provide more fuel for the brushfire set off by Albero's outrageous idiocy . . .
But you ask-- what does Albero wants?
From where I sit, it appears that Albero wants our attention, plain and simple. For all his alleged money, power, and success, Albero lives in a pathetically insecure Joe-centric universe, where it's all about Joe all the time, and he gets off by drawing and keeping our attention, by whatever means he can. He desperately needs our attention to feel important, to feel like he's worth something . .
That explains the rather amoral, unprincipled, and internally inconsistent manner in which he blogs. One post he's on his knees before the SFD, giving virtual "you know what," and the next he's damning the SFD to racist hell. This post, he's a Democrat; the next, a Republican. Here, he's slamming Shanie Shields; there, he's her best friend. One day, he's allowing anonymous posts; the next, he's not; and then he is again . . .
It also explains why he spends so much time telling us how great he is, how imfluential, how important, how accomplished. Because, deep down, he doesn't really believe it. He needs to keep saying it, like a mantra, over and over again, in hopes it'll stick. And the attention he gets from us reinforces the mantra. He desperately needs us to keep watching, to keep feeding the fire . . .
It never ends. It never will end. No matter what happens, no matter how stupid he looks, no matter how many times we all point out his idiocy. In fact, that's exactly what he wants. Our responses. Our attention. Our attempts to correct, admonish, or bring some measure of rationality to the discussion. It all feeds the neverending brushfire emanating from Joe's crazy little universe . . .
Joe will always have an answer, no matter how irrational, incredible, unreasonable or unsupported by fact. Doesn't matter, so long as we keep watching . . .
I know, I know. We're all Barrie Tilghman, Chief Webster, John Robinson, and Jim Rapp, among countless others. We're all going to get sued pursuant to some strange non-existent legal theory. We're all responsible for hacking and undermining Salisbury News and Delmarva Dealings. The FBI, the CIA, and Interpol are all investigating. The hammer will soon come down . . .
The best we can do, hopefully sooner rather than later, is lose interest and stop checking out the train wreck . . .
That, in an nutshell, would be doing what Albero does not want . . .
Who wants to start?
Oceanshaman & inside looking out,
Both of your comments are very accurate and truthful. To a great degree I have agree with the fact that by responding to Albero’s accusations and half-truths we are feeding his ego.
It is quite apparent Albero seeks attention; most likely due to lack of such when he was a youth. However, the trouble he has caused in his quest for attention had created undue damage to those he attacks.
The problem is, not standing up to these lies and speculations readers will believe what he says. At least by offering common sense replies the reader of these BLOGS will be able to weigh both sides of an issue and usually the one that makes sense is the one most believable.
For that reason I feel it is important to continue to address the idiocy he spews forth to allow reasonable thought to prevail.
did you all ever think that maybe he just wants all the hit the watchdesk has, so he stir up a hornets nest on his blog as a way to get numbers?
Because setiously, calling someone a racist.....is just moronic.
Soapbox,
I'm with you. We must stand up to lies and deceit -- no matter where we find them.
Obviously many of you Idiots didn't read the comments from the past on the Watch Desk.
I didn't start it, you did. I simply exposed it, so hate me. For the people I effected, GOOD! For those that washed it off their backs knowing they aren't a racist, GOOD!
Oceanshaman, you do realize you just explained your exact situation about yourself! The name is Chris Linus, you know, the attorney that got nailed in that drug ring case and is now under house arrest. That's him Folks, the one and only. ROTFLMAO!
Look Chris, I can walk out of my house and go to the store. I can go out and take pictures. Oh, that's right, you're not invited because you have an ankle bracelet and you'd GO TO JAIL!
You crooked hypocrite! It's no wonder you'd join in all the fun with these racists. The only reason you act clean now is because you ever so slightly got by without spending 30 years in jail for what you did.
Anyhow, do notice how I also use my real name Chris. Wanna bring it back now?
YOU---Have not exposed a thing Albero. All that you profess to have brought to light was out in the open years ago.
If you have ever bothered to read Oceanshaman's blog, you would realize that he neither hides behind a name, nor does he ever make excuses for himself. He has never blamed anyone else for his mistakes. He has never brought a negative light on someone else to deflect his own shortcomings.
I'm going to the zoo, Albero. Want to join me? Oh, wait! That's right- you Can't! LOL
He who lives in glass houses, pal.
I for one have known who OceanShaman is for the last year or more. So what! You Joe have exposed nothing and your comments about him only go to further prove your lack of worth.
I'm just waiting for the day you have to serve your time for those you have treated unjustly.
Let those without fault cast the first stone!
It's so funny how i just had been discussing Mr. Albero's accusations with a friend of mine who is in the fire service in the county, he did put an interesting spin on why Mr. Albero is so in defense of Mr. Dodd, Mr Dodd IS IN CHARGE OF INSPECTIONS FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
Is there something in your buildings within the city that you want hidden from an inspection Mr. Albero? My friend said it's really odd that you'd be so protective of the man that can literally shut your buildings down and it would cost you lot's of money to come within the required codes for fire protection. Isn't a little "cash under the table" a bit easier than going through all this?
I'm simply repeating what speculation that a fire service person stated to me. He doesn't know you personally nor does he have an axe to grind with you, he simply posed that information to me and i found it quite interesting.
BTW, i did just finish your latest posting, my my didn't we go stirring the beehive on that one. Maybe you'll accomplish the attention you seem to desire so much.
As for your bashing of the other fire departments listed in the comments of that posting, i believe you have stated derogatory comments about members of the respected departments quoted, not neccesarily the department itself. But what's the difference, the members make the department, otherwise it's simply a building.
As for how they've answered, seems when someone goes bashing you, you certainly come out swinging with utter vulgarity and comments that for the most part, have to have an age requirement to read them.
My point to all this is, a "claim of possible wrong doing" can be made of anyone, even you and Mr. Dodd!!
(Wasn't Mr. Dodd on the County Council at one time also? Was there some collusion going on then between these two people?)
C'mon, Joe . . . you and everyone else who frequents our local blogosphere know full well I've made no effort to hide my identity . . .
Chris Llinas, I am . . . oh, and by the way, crack pseudo-reporter that you are, please note the proper spelling for future reference . . .
I have my issues, no doubt, some of which provide me with a decent insight into Joe's character defects . . . I speak to those issues often on my blog at www.oceanshaman.blogspot.com . . . you all are welcome to check it out . . . read the very first post if you want to know about my troubles with the law, and what I did to address them . . . I've made no effort to hide my troubles, and I take full responsibility for them . . . beyond that, I think you'll find that Joe and I have very little in common when it comes to blogging or anything else . . .
Yes, I have been on home detention for close to a year now, and will be off this coming Wednesday, October 24th . . . I'll cut the bracelet off at 8am, take a personal day, go surfing, maybe do a 5-miler on the Boardwalk, and go out to dinner with my wife . . .
Home detention really hasn't been bad at all . . . I can leave the house for work, meetings, and class . . . and I can go outside for tai chi, meditation, and yard work . . . to be quite honest, it's been quite the positive experience, on the whole, and I'm a better person for it . . .
C'mon, Joe . . . I act clean now because I am clean now . . . it's a pretty wonderful thing for which I am quite grateful, such that I consider my troubles to have been a blessing in disguise, as they got me to where I am now . . .
As for your recent "stance" against racism in the SFD and among Eastern Shore firefighters, generally, it is so transparent and opportunistic a ploy for attention ("Look at me! Look at me!") as to be laughable . . . like Hillary Clinton taking a stand against HMO's, or George Bush taking a stand against illiteracy . . . in other words, a feeble joke . . .
I worked as a paid paramedic in Sussex County, DE from 1991 to 1994, so I have some actual experiential knowledge concerning the mindset of our local volunteers . . . something you would do well to gain before you speak further on these issues . . . many may be good ol' boys and rednecks, but few are truly racist, and they're also the first ones who will put their lives on the line to save the lives of our local minority citizens . . . can't say I've ever seen any evidence to suggest you'd do the same . . .
Finally, I look forward to hearing Lorenzo Cropper speak to the issues you have so ineloquently raised in your ignorance-laden tirades against the SFD, allegedly on his behalf . . . from what I gather, he will be none too pleased, and highly unlikely to support you in your quest . . .
Joe, you are an ASS . . . plain and simple . . . and you cement your status as such with every post and every comment . . . you may get hits, but rest assured, we are laughing AT you, not with you . . .
You want to hurl insults at me? Be my guest . . . You are nothing compared with what I've already been through . . . I've been crushed to dust and risen from the ashes . . . I can run circles, and then some, around your fat, retarded, wannabe ass before you've even gotten your pants up past your ankles . . .
Run along, little boy . . . this is a realm for men . . . and you have a long, long way to go before you qualify . . .
oceanshaman
Thank you for your comments and analysis. I appreciate you reading my BLOG and making rational comments. In the future please refrain from foul language. I allow it to stand this time because what you say has tremendous merit.
Thank you also for providing your BLOG address. I will be sure to visit.
Joe P.
No problem, soapbox joe . . .
I will be more restrained in future commentary . . .
geeze JJ, you really shouldn't make Ocean mad....he may someday be the only lawyer left on the shore that would take your lawsuits.bahahahahahahaha
I think Oceanshaman has very best of all of the exellent explainations posted here today. He certainly threw Joe into his attack mode. Chris maybe you should hang around the court house the day of his trial just to make him nervous. Possibly just seeing you (if he knows what you look like) could cause him to have an outburst so the judge can see what the man/child is really like.
O W Grant, touche & LOL!
Karen, if Oceanshaman was a real man he'd use his real name. He refuses to do so because he doesn't want to EXPLAIN himslef 24/7, yet he's found the Lord.
"oh, and by the way, crack pseudo-reporter that you are, please note the proper spelling for future reference" I'm sorry, perhaps you could explain to everyone what the Lline stands for!
You make me want to puke! Your BS sob story doesn't sell me on you being a complete criminal and there isn't a single young black man that would have ever received the same sentence.
Soapbox, you make me sick with your statement too. That's OK though, Llinus will be in trouble soon again as it is in his blood.
"Soapbox, you make me sick with your statement too. "
Try Pepto Bismol
...will be in trouble soon again as it is in his blood...
Just like your wife cheating? Hey, she's done it before, so I guess it's in her blood and she'll do it again?
Are we dodging something Mr. Albero?? Maybe what i was told IS true? Maybe some investigation needs to be done involving the "Patron Saint"(if you want to believe Mr. Albero's opinion of Mr. Dodd) of the Salisbury Fire Department? Inquiring minds are wanting to know. After all, didn't he just go through a divorce process, they can be expensive!!
Post my comment soapbox. Let the truth be told.

To what do you refer now? I have not rejected any of your comments for several days. When I reject your comments I tell you so and the reason why.
Do not come here making posts or comments that infer otherwise.
Joe Albero, WRATH is a sin. What say you when the reaper comes? The longer your heap your wrath on others, to shorter your standing in heaven. This is you wake up call.
Disclaimer: This in no way is a threat to Albero. It is a warning of the sins you commit Albero. It is the writing on the wall for your soul. May you change your ways before it is to late for you.
Kiss my butt Wit.
I'm in heaven as we speak. Life doesn't get any better than the life I already have.
As for what will happen after my death, worry about yourself and don't even think of preaching to me. You're starting to sound like oceanshaman.
Joe states:
"I'm in heaven as we speak. Life doesn't get any better than the life I already have."
That is a very sad statement about you Mr. Albero. It speaks volumes about how shallow and narrow minded you really are. Material wealth and a sense of satisfaction derived from attacking and belittling others is not heaven, actually it's not even a good life. Your life is more about failure than success. You are not successful, you are not in heaven, you have fallen pitifully short of both.
MY GOD! If all we have to look forward to in heaven is incoherent blogging, a few bucks in our pockets and a dump in Delmar I'm going to quit wasting my time trying to get there!
A dump in Delmar, material wealth and the list goes on and on. When did I ever mention any of that in this post?
Rather than living my life being scared to die and or where I'll be once I'm gone, I'll concentrate on what I'm doing while I'm here, thank you.
You can live your life any way you like, you don't hear me telling you how to do so but I do hear you criticizing me for what I'm doing.
That being said, let it drive you as nuts as it can because my happiness isn't my home, it isn't my money, it's my Wife, our children and our Grandchild. You're the losers here.
We're all content to be losers in your eye. Perhaps you should spend more time in your "heaven" instead of inflicting yourself on everyone but your wife, children and grandchildren.
The last word. Must have the last word...can't let it go....ahhhhh.
What ever dude bero, WRATH is a sin, PRIDE is a sin, ENVY is a sin. You may have your "happiness" here and now, but your short sightedness is also you biggest FAILURE. The lack of preparing your soul for the afterlife from someone with so many resources is another sin, SLOTH.
Wake up Albero, prepare your self and may GOD have mercy on your soul.
Hey Folks,
Just a note that Joe posted a small piece of my previous comment on his blog this morning . . .
So I attempted to post the entire un-edited comment there, as a matter of fairness . . .
He deleted it ASAP, and sent me an email warning me to stay away . . .
Cowardly little boy, now isn't he . . .
People who hide behind religion usually have good reason to be hiding in the first place.
How is this hiding?
Start by using your real name, instead of fictitious names. Remember now, you're lying and sinning. OMG!
Drunken cigar smoking sinners usually talk out of there arses.
hide behind religion? you re mixing metaphors JJ. People don't hide behind religion, in fact people usually get KILLED for their religious beliefs...it's called being a martyr. DUH
To quote George Costanza, "It's only a lie if you don't believe it."
I am Historical Wit. There is only one, me. How is that lying? I have a personality, I have opinions, I have a soul. I also have an alter ego. ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
JJ sounds like a broken record, who are you people? I need your real names!!!! Your not real without real names!!!!! What you say is lies cause your not real!!!! Face me real name to real name!!!! I dare you, not real name liars!!!! Blah Blah Blah, we have all heard it before. It's all about protection from the stupidity that runs afoul here in this here blogosphere. We COULD give up our real names, but can we TRUST you not to go snooping in our REAL lives with your camera? WIth your acidic drivel waiting to smear who ever decides to have an opinion that differs from you or in recent light of some of your relationships, smearing for favors. Selling yourself to the lowest bidder. Folks beware of people willing to sling dirt for others. They do it cause they like it. Did I tell you that WRATH is a sin?
Wit--
Be careful. I resemble that remark (the drunken, cigar smoking part).
Please don't paint all of us inbibing, tax payers of the dried leaf who pay for children's health care with the same brush.
Obviously you forgot about the Catholic Priests who use their religious positions to get to their victims. I'd say that's hiding behind their religion, wouldn't you? After this, I'm done with this topic.
As for historical wit, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah! He refuses to answer the question and runs from my point. Typical of preachers.
Luxuria (extravagance, later lust), Gula (gluttony), Avaritia (greed), Acedia (sloth), Ira (wrath, more commonly known as anger), Invidia (envy), and Superbia (pride). Each of the seven deadly sins has an opposite among the corresponding seven holy virtues (sometimes also referred to as the contrary virtues). In parallel order to the sins they oppose, the seven holy virtues are chastity, abstinence, temperance, diligence, patience, kindness, and humility.
What question schizo boy?
Sorry GP, but you know who that was directed to. Ain't but one punching bag around here worth throwing haymakers at.
oh good, we have moved from race hating to catholic bashing all in one afternoon...you should be SO proud of yourself Joseph, what's the middle name and confirmation name Albero. And you call to God with that mouth? You should be ashamed.
Meanwhile, JJG's drunken cigar smoking buddy gets nailed with a DUI over the weekend...and nary a peep about it. That's right, Frank White of Princess Anne got nailed in Salisbury by MSP for drinking and driving. How come people only come to regret drinking and driving when they get nailed? If anyone, including you Joseph think this is the 1st time ol Frankie boy climed behind the wheel intoxicated, think again. It's not his first brush with the law either. Seems he had a nice little brush with them back when he was Pocomoke Police Chief.
Caughtit...
Outstanding insight.
Racism...
Anti-Catholic bigotry...
What's next? I think the gameplan will go like this...
Tuesday: Blame the Jews
Wednesday: Big Oil
Thursday: Big Pharmaceutical
Friday: Military-Industrial Complex
Saturday: Fox News and the Neo-conservatives
Sunday: Big Media
Remember all those trips to photograph the graffiti at Lowe's? Jihad Joe was just stopping buy to pick up a few extra "broad brushes" to slander people with.
GP, I shut JJ up with the dam Truck graffiti when I pointed out the trucks could have been sprayed else where then driven here......DUH....LOL
Joseph, what happened to that famed MSP report of the Hebron VFD accident you were getting?
Did you get it and see you were wrong, and decided not to post it?
I think i'm finally figuring out Mr. Albero's schedule....Sarcasim & Belittlement - Blue pill...Sincerity and Kindness - Green pill....Blue pill....Green pill....Blue pill....Green pill....if he mentions John Robinson...it's definately the psychotic - pink pill!!
It's been so funny to read Mr. Albero's comments on his posts(of course most are really him using anon.). He calls anyone and everyone that posts as anon as being a racist firefighter in Salisbury. Yet, how does he know this, it's anon and he's always asking them to post their names so it's obvious he DOESN'T know who it is nor what they do for a living(then again, he is posting to himself * Blue pill). He is always saying he has this undying respect for firefighters(* green pill) then goes off cursing them and berating them with insults(* Blue pill). If a posting even slightly reminds him of this John Robinson(* Pink pill)he totally goes ballistic. He constantly attempts to degrade the "so called" firefighters by threatening them with physical violence(* Blue pill) yet he, to anyones knowledge, has never ever said a single accusation to any of those "so called" firefighters face to face, toe to toe(* Hmmmm..unknown pill)!! How complex...it is interesting!!
caughtit,
You might be on to something here.
Maybe JJ went so far as to actually drive throughout Delaware and find trucks to drive to Lowe's JUST TO STAGE THE PHOTOGRAPHY!
bwaaahahhahha!
It is a funny thing about the graffiti. Joe bragged last year about how easy it was for him to put up his Christmas lights. He posted pictures of this equipment. Proving that he had what was needed to paint in those hard to reach places. Also the night before settlement on the old Synagogue building was tagged and Joe tried to make some kind of a last minute with Art Webster who wouldn't buy it. I'm it's all coincidental. Is this the longest thread in history???
