Hope all is well
with you and yours...Dear Watcher,<br /><br />Hope all is well<br />with you and yours, as always.<br /><br />Once again, your comments about<br />our charming little village are<br />spot on. (We've lost population<br />recently, I read....hmmn.) <br />I changed my mind about coming to<br />political events this week, because<br />I haven't so far seen what I've<br />hoped for in the local political<br />arena. To the Candidates:<br />(1) Tell us what problems you see<br />and how you'd try to address them,<br />but don't PROMISE or guarantee any<br />outcomes.<br /><br />(2) After you've told us about your hopes and plans, explain what<br />there is about you and your experience which qualifies you to<br />take on these thorny issues. Don't just state your resume' and volunteer commitments!<br /><br />(3) STOP listening to campaign <br />managers/advisers who tell you to<br />leave out the details. (Someone we<br />like here locally was advised this<br />way. --Sufferin' Succotash!)<br /><br />But back to you, Watcher:<br />The silver lining for you are the<br />people who love you, and the rest<br />of us who value, admire and respect your writing. Your influence is NOT negligible. (I'd love to talk about computer early days with you sometime, seems you've mentioned expertise there.) <br /> <br />Keep the faith, buddy.<br />A.amber ladeirahttp://amberladeira.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
