Come Saturday morning...


Kendrick Park Skating Rink 10:00 AM

Hmmm...guess everybody must be in North Amherst at Winter Fest (even though it does not start until noon)

Thanks. Only one thing missing: people! (or cats)

There is a point where you become a sore loser. This was a nice thing for the town to do so get over it.

Sore loser?

About a skating rink that only costs us a few thousand in employee labor costs as opposed to a golf course that cost us millions?

Pay a few thousand to UMass and rent some ice time at the Mullins.

Cheaper & easier & likely to be more used....

Thank you for continuing to call people names that disagree with you. It highlights how small-minded you are.

Larry Kelley said...

You're welcome.

It is a very interesting dynamic in the Valley, where if you don't agree with the status quo, you're "small-minded."

I think if I weren't a student of anthropology, I'd be more frustrated than fascinated.

You're small-minded if you think you can express your opinion and think everyone should listen but when someone expresses theirs you call them a nitwit.

Yeah, the power of ownership.

Sorry, but I'm not leaving my name. You're too willing to threaten people for that.

Spoken like a true Nitwit (or coward, as the case may be)

That's just what the British said when the Minutemen wouldn't fight out in the open.

Larry Kelley said...

Yeah, maybe.

My wife is in Korea (the good half) and I'm trying to raise two young daughters (although Kira at age 7 is impressing the Hell out of me, so maybe I should not consider her young)

But I'm dealing with Anonymous nitwits like you at 8:09 PM on Sunday night (when I still have to open my Health Club business by 5:45 AM tomorrow morning).

So with all do respect: go fuck yourself.

Ah yes. The bully pulpit has its key ingredient, a bully.

I thought you martial arts types develop some type of wisdom and inner calm, like on the TV show Kung Fu.

A few thousand? How much do you think they make? It probably doesn't even hit a $1000. Have the DPW itemize it costs for the skating rink and then bring it before Town Meeting. It would pass handily but of course I would be labeled a nitwit.

I am posting anonymously because I don't want you to photograph my at my home or office.

As long as you are not a public official, I will keep my camera holstered.

Good point. Bach remembers that all too well (one of only two in Amherst last year)
