[RP TownTalk] What I like about Riverdale Park

Bruce,

You know that I agree with you profoundly about the need to enforce
existing laws and crack the town into shape.  We have some very
serious quality-of-life issues.

But when you say

   "..talk about what's great about our Town and do nothing..."

I feel I must respond, with all respect as a neighbor and friend, that
you are way off base.

None of us on this list has done more for the town, so consistently,
over so many years, as Sarah and Alan.

Sarah can talk all she wants.  She's still a doer.

Leslie contributes, too.  I'm sure I don't know the full extent of
what she does for our community, but I certainly know about Leslie and
Jonah's participation in some important political campaigns.  These
are favors one never forgets.

We will talk about what's great about our Town and do nothing.  Drown out the bad words from that mean old man Bruce and sit in front of our TV sets and ignore him.  He is so negative.  We only want to hear nice things Mommy.
