I heard the other day that soon-to-be-former Mayor Sheila Dixon is a big proponent for the rights of the local a-rabs who for decades have sold their goods on the streets of this fine city.

I have a suggestion for our Mayor Dixon in reference to a possible new job when she leaves her current office next week.

If her job as a greeter at a local Target store does not work out, she could always look into becoming the official spokesperson for the a-rabs of Baltimore.

It's an honorable job at a fair rate. What more could the disgraced Ms. Dixon ask for?
