So you know about the Memorial Day promise also - Thats great. Nice that you don't mind it didn't happen, are you an "insider" (there)? I was very disappointed because that's what I came to see because that's what was publicized. You can understand that - right? I really think manipulating the media and lying is a cheap shot that only hurts AP in the long run. Surprising that you put up with it and condone it. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, "dsher4" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > first of all, i'd like an example of my drivel? > > second of all, i was referring to your judgement of an entire town by > what is posted by 15 people on an internet message board. > > Third, i have been an advocate of not having political discussions on > this board. > > Fourth, and this one is important - Memorial day for completion was > never a possibility.
