my favorite quote of the afternoon was the guy who seemed to be approximately my father in law's age, present in shorts and a golf shirt, and who boldly declared "I will not be PUNISHED because I am the only one in this TOWN who knows how to keep a LAWN"
I, grievance letter in hand, had been waved to the gallery seating on the far side of the room; I felt no compulsion to speak, but I did mentally object with "Hey now; we are WINNING at no-mow May"
Exciting times in the 'hood.
