Alice and the Farmer's Market
Posted by Kacey (+3159) 14 years ago
To everyone who thinks Alice's post is simply something else to take pot shots at, stop it! She may not write the way you think she should or spell the word the right way. But she has busted her butt for years getting and keeping a farmer's market going in Miles City. So PLEASE stop digging at her and try and help. The farmer's market is a wonderful thing for Miles City and it would be a shame if it stopped.

Kacey, nobody's "Taking Potshots" at Alice. If you read her post it's incredibly vague as to why Mayor Joe & the Council would shut down the farmers market.

All we were asking her was to provide details rather than ad hominem innuendo.

My pot shot was directed at the Dr. Rauh fan club, not at Alice.

Gunnar,

Methinketh thou doth protesteth too mucheth......

Perhaps your Rauhphobe tendencies are indicative of a closeted desire to adorn one of his tables, hmmmm???....with the ultra sound sensor held adeptly in his strong hand, stroking lovingly along your beer engorged belly displaying shadow images upon the small screen of the latest pilsner sloshing within....


....ahhhh.... "It's a Beer!"

My question: Why did you make ANOTHER THREAD about The Farmers Market? Why not speak your peace within the main post? Also, I agree to the Mayors response being childish/uncalled for, but also Alice was in the wrong here also. So, let bygones be bygones, and get on with life.

Well, Frank, while I have never given birth to a beer, I have begat many a Texan......

Much as I like Joe, I would tend to agree with the posters who have said that Mayor Joe should not have stooped to Alice's third grade level of grammer and posting style. He is, after all, a duly elected public official, and thus should behave better here than, say, a Gunnar Emilsson or a Kyle Vermin or a Brian Reed. The people of MC expect a more civil discourse from their representatives.

Gunnar:

I agree with you...

However, most of those complaining about the Mayor's post supported Butch Grenz.

No kidding! No one wants message threads that are only 2-3 posts long. How boring would that be?

Bob, I actually didn't support Butch. In fact, I despised the man and still do. So chalk one up for me on the otherside of the board.
