Goodbye Jack

With his rugged facial features and gravelly voice, Palance is best known to modern movie audiences as both the characters of Curly and Duke in the City Slickers movies, but his career has spanned half a century of film and television appearances.
Palance had recently placed his Butler Township, Pennsylvania, Holly-Brooke Farm up for sale and its contents, his personal lifetime collection, up for auction.[1]

Can Ya Feel The Love???
Well, maybe we got through to a few people after all. Since our community meeting, I've had 10 calls from people thanking us for what we are doing or apologizing for the individuals who acted like a total horse's ass. . .
I had two other calls from people who think I'm a total horse's ass. . . Guess I should be happy they were moved to at least call. I think a good movement was exactly what they needed in the first place. . . I also got a chuckle when a little old man I asked to be quiet in the meeting drove past me on my walk this morning and flipped me off. . . I'm sorry sir, but I'm pretty sure yours hasn't pointed in that direction in quite some time, but thank you for the thought anyway. . .
I can only imagine what will happen when the next newsletter goes out in a week or so. I haven't heard from anyone who was too busy to attend the meeting. There should be a few laughs in that too. . . Those folks go on my; "Ya don't get to bitch if ya didn't attend" list. . .
The one truth about community service is: "If some people aren't pissed off at ya, you aint doin' it right."
Get out and VOTE Tuesday. . . Then ya can bitch all ya want. . . I know I will!!! LOL!!!
HUGGSS!!

The Rules Don't Apply To Me. . .
. . . Because my personal needs are more important than everyone elses' needs. I'm special. . . I can't be held to the same standard as others, because that would be unfair. . . To me. . .
Rules are for everyone else. Rules are for people who don't think the way I do. Rules are for people who are such stupid sheep they are willing to follow them. . .
That seems to be the attitude of far too many people these days. I don't know whether to laugh, cry, scream or just go out and beat a homeless person with a crowbar. . . I'm pretty sure I won't select option 4.
Yes, last night my partner and I hosted our first community meeting since we were elected last summer. We spent countless hours of our own time looking at the the community rules and other issues that affected everyone and addressed those. . .
Now my partner and I understand why nobody else wanted the job. . . You can't please ANYBODY!!!. . . And we don't give a flyin' FUCK!!! . . . You elected us and we are going to do the job!!! GOT THAT?!?!?! We didn't take the job to be popular!! We didn't take the job because it pays so well. . . Because we do it FREE!! We took the job because it needs to be done. . . DIPSHIT!!
We talked for over an hour tonight and we're more determined than ever to make this work. . . And we will. . . Because we are the two most determined BITCHES on the face of the earth! . . .
Sometimes ya have to piss people off just to get them to pay attention. . .
We're pretty good at that already. . .
When I grow up I wanna be Yellowdog Granny!!!!
Love y'all!!!
