"Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall." Proverbs 16:18

Tomorrow, Tomorrow, There's always Tomorrow

These are the dog days of summer, the months of August  and September when the fewest people are here so things are pretty quiet, but do not make an error in thinking that we have been talking in vain. People are answering on the blog, sending emails and calling from the North about what has been going on and what can be done. There is a growing dissatisfaction with the status quo in the Village and that is all to the good. The more active the public, the more responsive the government has to be. It must hear their issues, not just the issues in the minds of the governing committees. Yes, they are volunteers, but they also are fulfilled by their volunteering and that is good, but they also have a responsibility to their electorate.

Dave and cohorts, please hear this and understand this. Noone wishes you harm; people are not ungrateful for whatever they appreciate in what you did, but people are not satisfied with one sop for many years. Enough with the computer stuff and onward with more vital issues. Remember, there are still many people here who do not have computers or even if they do, do not know how to use them for much more that straight emailing. So what should you concern yourself with?

Let us see....hmmm....Comcast and its lousy record, incompetents who don't know what they are doing and never answer the phones anyway, never bothering to show up when they make an appointment.....Reflection Bay and the jerk Waldman who has a heart of stone and a forked tongue and here  is where your stupid stubbornness in not working with the Pro Active Committee is biting you in your.... Now when you realize that you should have joined forces with them, others remember your words and still vote no......real updates and doings on security within the Village.....proper responses to people without the sneers and the yelling....and how about changing your blog's name to Dave's blog instead of the misnomer OUR VILLAGE. Excuse me? Out means all of us and that sure ain't the way it works now, is it?

Once again, put away your pride and stubbornness and reach out to people. You just might like it. Hear other people than just your yesmen.

  1. Esther, I wonder why no one is responding to your prolific dialogue? Is it because the majority of residents in the village are brain dead? Just wondering. Is so, it's time for a wake up call. Hey, you imbeciles, get off your butt and start talking. Let's hear what you all have to say!!

  2. I think a lot of people are not here and not so many others know about the blog yet and yet others have a great sense of inertia. There are readers who do not respond but do agree. I also never used to wrote so much but I guess the time seemed right now. If we all get together and work together come election time maybe we can make a difference. We also have to show up at assemblies and speak up. There is always hope.
