[Vendorsmi] Fw: Anderson Building Bid Process

Wed May 9 18:00:18 UTC 2012

Ajh.yes. Camels and donkeys joining noses and other body parts. sounds like 
business as usual in the State of Michigan apparatchek.

I know it is weird. But weird is too often true. Say isn't this a mis-match? 
And I'm trying to be kind and good and saintly and all that sort of thing.
