Want to make some copies of government records from the Cuyahoga County recorder’s office, at a reasonable cost? Why, you’d want to use a … photocopier, except if you’re dealing with Lawrence Patterson, acting head of information technology for the recorder’s division of the county fiscal office. The transcript of a recent court hearing, unearthed by the Cleveland Plain Dealer blog, brings to mind a certain Monty Python sketch about a dead parrot.
P.S. Don’t skip the reader comments, especially the one about “hoovering” the rug.
