I'm sorry why in God's green earth did we not know about this sooner,
the date on the notice is Nov 30,2006. Did I miss something in the paper?
Second, how did we all of a sudden get to have a pension problem like this ?

But alas I give my neighbor credit for trying to get the word out . I
was told by my good friends that " Who cares about taxes, I just pay them".
What do care about taxes anyway? "You can't do anything about them".

I think the problem with most not all people is that they are not informed !
They do not go to school board meeting, they do not go to town board
meetings , they listen to Bob and Tom and CBS,ABC,NBC and CNN and believe
everything they hear!
For I am a CONSERVATIVE and I believe in Lower Taxes and less Goverment!
For that, I am a drunkin dumb ass here on the lake and do not know what
I am talking about. I think some other reasons (which always kills them)
is I listen to Rush and am not afraid to say that or that I am conservative .

So to all my friends and neighbors and all the other people on the lake ,
here comes another tax increase!

Oh by the way , are you ready for the D N R to be swarming on Berry Lake
in the near future. You say you don't know what I'm talking about? You
should of been at the last town meeting , I was, but what I say doesn't mean a
hill of beans , I a republican and I always lie and I'm an idiot !

You can read about it in this Wednesday's Oconto Times Herald!
Will anyone do anything about it, I think not!

Reach into your wallets people , you won't see it coming!

Be careful what you do around the lake , Big Brother will be
watching and maybe someday we will find out if we have
endangered species in or around the lake.We can all use
maximum six horse motors on our six ft. maximum boats!

Have fun PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
