Includin' his?

I think Citizen Crawford needs to join a online forum (I'd be glad to recommend a good'n) an' stop wastin' council minutes fer his personal philosophizin'.

I also wish he'd learn how to pick some real battles an' do the job he was voted in to do now an' then. He embarrasses hisse'f in my opinion.

The latest item in the news is there is now a new drug for dogs to cure canine obesity.

I suppose we dog owners are guilty of not parenting correctly. Of course, my Fat Puppies are sorta like Fat Pappy, they eat everything you put in front of them and then some.

Has anyone noticed the cc4summerfield.org website has been cleaned out? Not nary nuthin' on them pages no more, 'ceptin' a home page with the web address listed.

Looks like one o' the steerin' committee done let go o' the steerin' wheel! Hee hee! Cain't say if he jumped or was pushed.

Looks like hard times to me. You'd think a all-powerful political juggernaut with a massive membership of THEN THERE WERE TWO could maintain a decent website.

I checked it out also. I guess maybe the steering committee got what hey wanted and now they want people to forget who they are.

Remember, Groups such as this sometimes go dormant. Then just before an election the show up supporting something else just to get their foot back in the door.

I was thinking the same thing. Perhaps they are trying to fly below radar and lull people into believing they have vanished. Only to pop up right before the next election full blast and in battle mode.

Dormant? Y'all make 'em sound like a virus hidin' out in the alimentary canal.

Pappy cain't he'p but wonder if there really is a "group." I've seen more evidence o' bigfoot's existence than I have of a large, sustained Concerned Citizens followin'.

Still, y'all's advice makes sense. Whether they're a group, a herd, a PAC, or just a individual or two behind the Wizard o' Oz curtain, their capacity fer devilment shouldn't be underestimated.

However, the neat part is...if & when any of this stuff does happen, the Friends For Summerfield are going to blow them away !!!!!!!!!!!! 

FFS already represents a larger population than CC's ever thought about, people are contacting SMS wanting to join the movement.  People didn't want to be bothered with a cloak & dagger organization like CC's, who operated in mystique like Fred Flintstones "Loyal Order of Water Buffalos". 

FFS is taking the right approach, positive attitude, listening to citizens, doing what is right for Summerfield.  

The CC website is gone, the organization can't be found,  so WHY is this thread still here?  Why are we wasting our time talking about cloak & dagger?

Why not bury this topic in the forum graveyard?

Well, I know that SMS has said before he could move topics to the "closed forums" and then folks could reopen (or open a newer version) if it was warranted later.... What do you say, Steve?

Oh, yeah.... This was a newer version of the original already, huh? Well, then a 3rd version could be opened up if warranted..... or not!

I can bury a topic with a couple keystrokes.

There are usually two "either/or" defining criteria I use (subjectively)

1)    no posts since two months before, ie, now is about the time I would be burying those topics not active since November

2)   the subject has ended in value ie (Forgive me Jim) Christmas lights

On those with subjectivity, I very much go with the wishes of the forum participants, ie Scott L requested the green topics remain til winter is over and things start turning green again, so now there is a whole separate "green" forum for those topics.

If the group wishes the CC topic buried, it shall be done.

In this new year and with the efforts of so many to improve the vision in Summerfield lets bury this subject. Somebody does not consider them to have enough support to maintain a website so why should we continue to beat the dead horse. Lets all move over to the Friends for Summerfield site and start concentrating on the positive.  See you over there.
