Letter to the editor in todays paper, a gentleman suggest leaving a store if you are greeted with anything but "Merry Christmas." He has a right to his opinion, but so do the store owner & employee. This is absolute B.S.! Consumer blackmail?
The whole issue over what to call a Christmas tree? It's a damn Christmas tree! has it ever been anything else? I believe this whole issue is to get around the religious aspect. If it is a "holiday tree" or "seasonal tree" it can be put up in a place that should not promote one particular religion? Bull, it is still a Christmas tree.
Casino says it may sue over county planning error. OMG someone really screwed up! Can these people not measure? "Nerud said the planning department used a map and a ruler to determine how far the casino was from the city. The liquor control division used GPS mapping for a more precise measurement."
The casino is in Ulm. I think there are two liquor licenses in Ulm. This is .14 miles inside the G.F. donut. I think Ulm has a right to its own little zoning donut.
It has I believe, been in business for several years. They noticed this in October of last year. No, wait, Chuck, the owner of the business noticed and told them. He will now be punished for being an honest person.
Ya know, if you go to a restaurant and order a steak, and the waitress writes Steak on her little pad, then brings you chicken, and you say I ordered steak, she looks at her little pad, where it says you ordered steak, and she apologises and runs back to the kitchen to get your steak, that you ordered, you get your steak, after everyone else has finished, you eat alone, the restaurant is out the cost of the chicken, and most likely the steak, if they want you to come back, since they messed up, and you go home knowing a mistake was made, but that kind of thing happens, it was made right, not that big a deal.
Now if the gov't ran the restaurant, I think it would go something like this. You go to a restaurant and order a steak, and the waitress writes Steak on her little pad, then brings you chicken, and you say I ordered steak, she looks at her little pad, where it says you ordered steak, and she tells you she knows that is what you ordered but they are serving chicken tonight. Steak, that you ordered, is on the menu, but only because someone made a mistake when they were printed, and they are trying to fix it, but they still have a committee working on what color it will be, and most likely the steak, if you want it, will be in the restaurant across town, they will give you directions on how to get there, but you still have to pay for the chicken, because the restaurant does not take responsibility for their mistakes.
