<<Do not get thrown out of the meeting! At least not during your own speech. >> About ten years ago we had a zoning dispute. Terry wanted to rezone 11 acres into 3 lots. The varience would have allowed him 30 lots. A gap in the rules. His attorney stated that we all knew Terry and he would stick with 3 lots. I jumped up and said we all knew Jimmy and he wouldn't kill his wife, kids and dog with an ax but he did. I got the official escort out of there. Next day the county zoning board put in a resolution that he could only have 3 lots. Pays to know someone on the board.

How is the speech going? Did you finish it last night? Oh, it's going... (-: Actually, I'm working on it right now. Just came in from a walk out in the field with Sabrina and now I feel in the right frame of mind to work for awhile. Hoping to be finished tonight...

K, I'm requesting good thoughts, or some such, if such things have any effect in these matters. (can't hurt, I reckon) The land that my great-great-granny's house, and great-uncle's homes are on is up for sale now. It's been for sale for years, but only as part of a 2000 acre plot. Now they are selling it by sealed bid in portions. There's a 160 acre plot that has the houses and most of the land that Annie worked. She's the one who in the mid to late 1800's had two kids out of wedlock, never married, and worked her 160 acres. She wasn't even 5'0" tall. Had hair down to her *** until she got real old and the weight started giving her headaches. They named the mountain after her. And her house still stands, with the well on the front porch, with the sweetest water you've ever tasted. I want. I want. I want. Annie wants.
