Ever travel with a 3 or 4 year old kid who seems never to run out of questions? Well, since Eva evidently feels we are of that age in our time of second childhood - and why we cannot deal with any more debates and candidates at the pools - I, too, have lots of questions and thoughts and it is my blog.....so......
Am I truly so dangerous? Evidently so to David Israel since he is now resorting to changing our by laws once more and getting his attorney on a leash, Tennyson, to declare another of them null and void. No more appointing of people to fill in vacant seats, even in the first term. But that would also mean that John Hoess has to be unappointed. That also means that all those people who were appointed all along are or were null and void and had no right to vote on the Executive Board. That also means that their votes were null and void. Now that means that the vote taken not to allow the amendments to go to the DA as they are supposed to is also NULL and VOID - and therefore - we can and must vote on them. This Friday. Interesting thought, is it not.
But in any case, whereof and wherefore, Mr. David Israel, am I worthy of being so dangerous? You guys have threatened me - along the same lines of the Palestinian rioters who throw those very same firecrackers that you threatened me with. So again, who is the dangerous one here??? What was that? Silence? No answer? There goes that lack of courage and honesty again.
Why is Joy Vestal such a cougar? Oops, that was not meant to be in there. The actual question is how do we allow such a has been hack run our honorable paper into the ground and earn the well deserved name of The RAG. Take a look at the latest issue. Let us count the ways.
First there is the nasty letter from Milton Cohen who has decided that his patriotism needs to have a scapegoat and has done me the honor of being said target. Additionally, there is yet another diatribe from Israel about accounting and showing his ignorance once more. You know, he favors the system where no savings are set aside , designated for anything and we should just have a merry old mish mash of funds so no one can tell what is going on and what we really have. Just think what would happen if we ran our own finances that way. But what is non journalistic here is the fact that in either case is there any kind of opportunity to present another side of the issue - a practice of which they boast about yet never follow. And there is more of this garbage to follow in the same issue.
Did you know that of the 64 pages of the paper there are approximately the equivalent of close to 32 pages of ads? Fully half of this garbage issue is ads. A Pennysaver indeed!. Of the rest of the paper, no fewer than FIVE articles are written by Don Foster, an assistant or associate editor. Where are the reporters, the plentiful amount, that used to be there? Where? Gone like the wind as they displeased all the holy ones - Joy, Myron and of course, David Israel. Why, to take on an intern at the paper, they had to go to David Israel and Ed Black and Joy was allowed to sit in???!!!! Whose paper is it? Um, what was that about independence and impartiality? It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it is our rights flying away.
And what should we do about these rights? Well, according to Irv Rikon, we are ripe for a new revolution. While he may be talking about the USA as a whole, and there is certainly much that is wrong within our country, particularly what with the fat cats ruling the roost again, but I think we are talking about the need for a revolution here and please, do not send me two reps from PBSO. I am clearly sane, not harmful to myself or to others and have no plans in the foreseeable future to shoot up the joint unless it is my shooting range where I try so desperately to actually hit the damn target!!
So. Irv says, we must return to the moral ideals upon which it was founded, you know, "With liberty and justice for all. With equal opportunities for all American citizens." He also states that there should be a revolution "by the ballot box so no entity over a period of time would build up such power that it could not be peacefully dislodged." Ooh, ooh, could someone read that again - and again - and again.....
One more question? Don Foster falls back upon the usual default of the dictator in training. He tries to shift blame of a rotten situation onto the protesters, those trying to raise consciousness about it, do something about it. So yes, somewhat ugly questions have been asked and NOT answered. Don't like these questions? Then fix the problem. Stop boasting of the media stories you say you have gotten and then curse out the other media stories and attention that we have gotten and please, this is not a competition except in your furry little brains. We are aiming at one goal - the return of right, the return of justice, the return of a wonderful Village. What is yours other than to maintain power.
Don Foster blames oh dear, oh dear, the renters. If renters are such a bad idea then please, Mr. DonHoHo, please explain to me why you are the landlord of so many units and RENT them out? As far as renters doing anything for the Village, seems to me that Anitra is a renter and had her hot little hands in almost everything going on here in the Village - committees, Wi Fi, IT, paper, and the list goes on. Put your money where your mouth is for once!
Finally, you complain of the CV Messenger and that it is all written by Neil the renter. Well, first of all, so what if it were even true. He is a talented person, writes very well and has a brain. Guess that scares you guys. In any case, in this most recent edition I count at least eight other writers in there so please, tutoring lessons again? You know, 1+1+1+1......
Readership has risen. Protestors have grown. Anger is growing and basically, people have had enough. Being the Crown Prince does not make you the underboss of us all any more than David Israel. How much more power will you concentrate in your hands. The inspection committee and you guys are doing such a great job. The election chair - ah, the virtues of impartiality. Associate editor. Finance committee. And now - the CAM! Yes, a resident is going to be the CAM. Very professional. And by the way, once you are CAM you cannot vote on your committees and I do not see how you can be chair of elections if you are CAM. Just think about all this and realize that we are watching, so yes, be paranoid. It comes naturally to you guys doesn't it. As does the nastiness.
And by the way, if we so desperately needed an outside person to manage the ads because we were so hopelessly old and lacked any knowledge of how to work it properly, then how in the name of all that's holy can we be brainy and capable enough to handle a 7 million dollar plus budget. Again, growing more and more to like the idea of a professional manager.
