Default I Won!

Was checking the local once a week paper, and that increase in tax to
pay for more street lights here in Rosamond ... FAILED !!!

Now I'm not going to say I did it all, but all the talking I did and
the driving around town with bright signs on the Beast couldn't have
hurt any.

Plus I didn't say much about not seeing the stars, I talked about the
100% increase in the home owners tax this year and as much as another
2 to 5% each year afterwards. The one thing home owners hate is more
tax's.

So for at lest now, new street lights will NOT be added to the town
area of Rosamond.

Good job! It sounds like you (wisely) said the things they could hear and
care about.

Maybe it was that 50 cal. machine gun mounted in the Beast's bed with the sign
on the side of the beast that said:

"More street lights?

I DON"T THINK SO!"

Well done
