And the craziness continues. Several weeks ago, we found some voting booths (of all things) on the Musick Auction. We bought 8 of them for 5 bucks! Sold them to the Letha Sewer President ( he was impressed, hah) and they will use them for the election. They are really handy machines. Very plain, 4 collapsible legs, and a light with cord, 2 folding sides and the whole thing folds up into a briefcase-like container. Well, the things have a punch (hanging chads) system in the bottom of the case, and all thought there would have to be an insert made to make it flat for us to use. We said we would get a piece of plywood or whatever for the "judge" to make the table tops cuz the resident pain-the-ass handy man hadn't done that yet and the guy in charge of the election was panicking. But it seems the makers thought of everything. The bottom comes out and flips over for a flat surface! Before we discovered this jewel of info, the resident "Chicken Little" cried fowl (hahahaha) about us setting the things up at the voting site. We had no intentions of doing that, just get the surface board to make it flat, which is a moot point now. Talk about petty shit. This place is really full of it. Richard has a saying he taught the kids early on, "Don't sweat the petty shit, and don't pet the sweaty shit." Good sound advice for those who cry wolf. Are We Having Fun Yet???
This past 2 weeks, we have been at the county office learning about what the district could do and what it could not do. Every day a new challenge.
Just this past Wednesday, the local gossip chain has informed us of a secret. If Rich wins the election, the board will ask for the resignation of a board member and then appoint Lee as a "new" member. This was told to the local town crier who was asked to keep it a secret. Like that was gonna happen. Less than 2 minutes after learning this "secret", we were told. We figure this is just BS to keep us off on some other tangent. WE just laughed. Small town politics.
time to go work out.
later

So let "Lee" do his thing. Is it a bad thing for the entire board to resign? Throw the bastids out!
He is a she and the one Rich is running against. She has cost the district thousands of dollars by being S.O.S. (stuck on stupid)
We'll good luck with all of this.
