I posted earlier in the week about my friend's missing Bulldog, Maxie. I know some people on here offered their help in several ways which was GREATLY appreciated. Unfortunately, I haven't heard anything else since then. I ask that everyone continue to be on the lookout for Maxie. She is like a family member to my friends who own her. They miss her so much. Their remaining bulldog is noticeably depressed as well, having lost Maxie and Smokey who was killed by the hit-and-run driver that same night. If anyone sees any bulldogs in town, along or being walked by someone, please call my friend Anthony at 201-481-9609. We will be posting additional flyers throughout town tomorrow. Please see the pictures of Maxie in the photo gallery We are not giving up... Thanks, Nelson Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Incident: Impact of a Word
Yesterday, I read many reasonable sentences here.Today, one disparaging word sticks with me. That unaccountable fact reminds me of Incident by Countee Cullen. = The reasonable sentences : In messages dated 11/16/2007, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am for the Budget Committee. I am sure that part of the problem is not that simple. While I wish everything were black and white, more oft there are grey tones. Consider not the spending side but the revenue side. Consider a hypothetical .Let's say forces outside the municipality act to foment and encourage the ghettoizing (poverty-stricken urban area) of the municipality, or large areas thereof. Sure enough there is enough blame to go around . And so, I am not so sure that the county, or the state, does not have some responsibility for the conditions here. The simple fact of life is that some will have to give more than they receive and others will receive more than they give. As a NYC resident, I know that we pay more taxes to the state and fed than we receive in direct services in return. A fact of life. And for those outside of AP who say no more, get your house in order (as we well should), what price do you put on having all the people and problems you do not want living near you? Is that to be a free service for us to provide? None of us are guiltless. The purpose of the Budget Committee is an attempt to get our house in order - not to assess blame .it is counterproductive to start the blame game at the beginning, or at least in announcing the formation of the committee . I saw the committee as something separate from any movement to assess blame on he council majority. Surely they have their faults and anyone or everyone is free to criticize them or try to get them out of office. But for my part, I thought that to include criticism of them in the post about the committee to be inappropriate. === The disparaging word : ilk. In a message dated 11/16/2007, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: people of your ilk . The poem, from Countee Cullen's Color (1925): INCIDENT Once riding in old Baltimore, Heart-filled, head-filled with glee, I saw a Baltimorean Keep looking straight at me.

[AsburyPark] Re: A Respsonse to Mr. Vail
Honestly I think this whole debate is a mircocosm of why so little ever really gets fixed in Asbury Park. Jim's got great ideas, but goes so far out of his way to intentionally poke and jab at the rest of the council that he has little to no chance of getting any of his agenda accomplished. His email on the budget committee is a great example of that - whether his statement is true or not it was completely unneccessary and only serves to drive dialog to debates like this one vs. discussion around the budget and this committee which I believe was his actual intent. The others on the council have always had such venom for Jim that they refuse to consider almost anything he says or proposes out of spite rather than based on merit. I am convinced some choose not to not support things they actually agree with simply because Jim proposed them first. If everyone could just step back, check the egos and insults at the door and focus on making this city better so much could get done. But of course we all know that won't happen. Which is too bad. Welcome back to high school everone. Classes are every other Wednesday evenings. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, dfsavgny [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, Jack Pitzer hinge98@ wrote: Honestly, can you blame Jim for being frustrated with the council? And to somehow praise the previous council sounds way off base in my opinion. Let it end. It is has become what I feared and what i cautioned against by going off message. Never let people get confused about what message you are trying to send. if you do, perhaps you are confused as to the message you want to send. We all need to grow up, take a deep breath, take a step back and roll up our collective sleeves. Fighting with each other will ge us nowhere except into fights. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: A Respsonse to Mr. Vail
I am so grateful for Keady. As far as I have been able to tell, he is the only council person who understands that politics is about SERVICE. I can identify with his tendency to poke. Its hard for me not to, but I am quickly realizing that I need to grow up and learn more intelligent ways to serve my community. We could all use some lessons in non violent communication! As for the budget deficit, I am anxious for an intelligent solution from SUFA. I have some crazy ones to throw out in the spirit of brainstorming. I would like to see us throw some ideas back and forth, even if they are kooky... How could AP generate more revenue??? couldn't we all pitch in to a debt reduction effort? what if everyone pitched in ...incomes over 5 100$/year under 10$/year...I know that one will make people pissed, but i certainly get .30/day of pleasure in this city. i think there is a world of ideas that we could explore with open minds and in the spirit of the possible. we need to stop expecting those in power to do it all. we as ordinary joes need to take more action, more responsibility. we don't need to be ashamed, or point fingers. i live beyond my means like many good american consumer, I can't bash anyone for a deficit. we could have fun community fund raisers to get the collectors off our backs..move from the red to the black AND create community... anyway...what is your idea for getting us out of debt? it IS US and it is OUR debt!

[AsburyPark] How do we reduce our deficit?
I decided to start a fresh topic for this. In many ways its simple, no? Reduce costs, increase revenue. Lets have fun with ideas. All in the spirit of brainstorming. allow the off the wall! a historic tour with one of ap's many passionate and knowledgeable historians who volunteer, charge folks...revenue. could ap create a product...maps, literature, recipe book, a natural, fragrance free lotion :), t shirts, hot sauce. its going to sound super capitalist, but how can ap turn its commodity into revenue stream. how can the tri city help us? how can volunteerism, or student internships defray costs. how are businesses that are profiting give back? how can you and i, whose lives are benefited by living is such a fab place give a little more? could solar power help the city save energy costs? hybrid vehicles? an organic garden led by volunteers... whats your kooky idea? remember...open mind, nothing too insane, leave the finger wagging critic in the other room.
