Good news for some, bad news for others
I have good news for some this week and bad news for others.
First the good news – for those who have complained that I should have my priorities in order because I play in my weekly golf league on Tuesdays instead of attending school board meetings, I lost in the playoffs consequently no more golf league. That means I’ll be attending the monthly meetings
Now the bad news – for those politicians who were happy as a pig in mud because I had golf leagues on Tuesday’s prohibiting me from attending the monthly board meeting, I lost in the plays and now I’ll be attending.
Yes, it’ll be back to business as usual.
I’ll be sure to come early, bring my video camera and get great videos of board presidents Mark Singer and John Bolin.
