Thank the CDD8 representatives for thinking independently?
I thought their mission was to find out the prevailing opinion of the residents they represent and vote accordingly.

That's what I and my CDD8 neighbors, for the most part, think as well. Representatives are supposed to represent...not be independent thinkers. Why do we vote at all?

I just signed a petition a few minutes ago to stop the stripping. This petition was going door to door in Buttonwood and I'm sure in the rest of the district.

Stripping? STRIPPING? I though this was a retirement community; where's this stripping taking place at?

At the town squares. But you have to get there early and tie off you chairs.

You have to admit that the occasional polka, or the chicken dance are appropriate.

Stripping in public is hard on one's ego. The last time I did it, they all shouted; "Put it back on!"
