Yag, I think you'll fill both positions just fine. Do us a favor and change clothes when you switch personalities, so we can figure out who you are that day. They can be so similar and very confusing.ygmir wrote:I thought I had deputy sheriff?

Sometimes I'm confused by what I think is really obvious. But what I think is really obvious obviously isn't obvious.

Deb, since I promise to be an honest politician, I feel that I am the best person to report on my own honourable (as you Canadians write) and honest activites, and to let the good citizens of our community know what's going on. This is how the U.S.S.R. has done it for years--and it worked for them!Deb Prothero wrote:sorry Shambala, if you're gonna be the Empire-or then I'm gonna have to follow you around and report on your corruptive behaviour.Shambala wrote:I'm like wicked really good with like words and stuff, ya know.

We could do a He Said/She Said with side-by-side columns. We'll put a graphic box around your column with the word Advertisement in tiny print so you can mention Sham's Sofas. We'll see who gets the most letters to the editor!

Fishy for proofreader and grammarian!! I vote yes!! Now we need a:
county clerk
a supermarket
a barber
A know-it-all
A busy body
A Boo Radley
Any more ideas? I'd like to see a blueprint of our town! What a great art project.

Or ... we would think outside the box.
Burning Man 2012 Theme: Burning Gerlach. Literally.
The organization buys up the abandoned towns, and burns them right down to the foundations. Then for the afterburn, it digs up the foundations, and sends them to a landfill, so nothing remains of these communities other than a few scrapbook pictures, a few burn scars on the ground and some rapidly fading memories.
We could call it "the end of their world". It has a ring to it, and it would put all past burns to shame.
