Pacific Beach Foot Traffic, Retail, Up in Smoke
So Eric, with your Swami ability (“It’s no surprise. We’ve seen this coming for a while now.”) you have chosen to do nothing about the problems that exist and just attack the community as a whole. Can you please explain to everyone why when a DUI takes place in PB and the survey is filled out of the place they had their last drink, your bar accounts for 18%? Swami #2. “I don’t think the individuals on the planning group or the town council are a true representation of the community. So I guess you are? Where do you live? Hint – not PB. I’m sure you have Gommer Pile working to show in court that residents are not residents and therefore and to whit have no meaning. Andy, Andy, Andy, it’s all a conspiracy (Hanshaw considers the complaints about the retail mix to be another strategy by some residents to restrict alcohol consumption in Pacific Beach. “The people on the town council have spent a long time on alcohol, and it is a large part of their agenda,”) OK sheriff Andy, what is the number of new liquor licenses’ that Pacific Beach needs to become a great community? 100, 200, 300? Because, after all this will create other business’ like auto repair, detox centers, vomitoriums , tattoo removal, attorney centers, topless bars, Garnet avenue escort services and liver transplant cooperatives. The BID (Bar improvement district) ran off Floyd’s barber shop 7 years ago. Thelma Lou lost her job and is living at the library. Aunt Bee has been told to shut-up by Gommer. Opee has opened a collective and has a two word vocabulary of Duh and Winning, and the town of PB is filled with everyone named Otis. Welcome to Mayberry 2011. Good job boys! Remember, TV shows get canceled.— April 10, 2011 10:55 a.m.
Beer Float
This is the beginning of a good report. I’m guessing there was no opportunity to ask this question after this: Young then reminded the audience that this type of behavior was the reason why he did not support the ban. "People are going to find a way." Mr. Young, how many parks in your district allow alcohol now and how many before the beach and bay ban? The answer is Zero! Do I smell nimbyisum?— May 28, 2010 1:26 p.m.
Some Enchanted Gathering
Good job Carolyn. You asked the question I have been asking since the passage of Prop. D – where is the area for the 47.5% of us who wish to enjoy alcohol in a public/beach area? Captain Ball called it perfectly-we are just babysitters-priceless and true. Fiesta island makes the best sense, one way in, one way out with no residential neighbors. I appreciate your growth in this arena.— May 12, 2010 10:27 p.m.
She Wouldn't Listen to Me
I invite all of you to attend Kate Sessions Park tomorrow at 5:30 PM for a get together, maybe even a walk in the neighborhood. Carolyn, this is a perfect opportunity for your next story. Bring Perry Mason with you and film him in the middle of the sloshball field extolling his beliefs on how to avoid a DUI even though everyone has consumed a keg apiece. Make sure to point out that he has distributed business cards as referrals on every road used as exits. Come with me and join in on the betting pool that exists, the first person urinating in public sighting, the first vomit before driving away, maybe you could add to the betting pool with a fresh Idea. Vern, I will pay for the trolley fare and will have a nice mattress waiting for your nap. After viewing humanity on this date you may even write an article entitled “Shut up and Sit Down”.— May 7, 2010 5:16 p.m.
Wobbling
Sorry Carolyn, I am sure you have made factual mistakes in this op-ed/article. It is this type of no depth nonsense that is the death of journalism and you are Florence Nightingale. Facts? Figures? Whatever!— April 30, 2010 8:22 p.m.
Wake Up, Speak Up
Thanks SDanials. It became quite apparent from post #2 that there are several people defending this writer, most having no stake in the issue. I ran into the writer during a meeting last week and I had to make sure my deodorant was still working because that is the only excuse she could use in my mind for not speaking with me.— April 25, 2010 1:29 p.m.
Wake Up, Speak Up
Frito, you have lost your mind.— April 18, 2010 3:58 p.m.
Wake Up, Speak Up
Freedom - Wow - Rape? Do you wish to share with us something of your past.— April 15, 2010 6:14 p.m.
Wake Up, Speak Up
Duhbya - I want your real name! Sorry, for a moment there I thought I was Refried. Get it?— April 15, 2010 4:51 p.m.
Wake Up, Speak Up
Freedom Once again, what are your solutions to the problems?— April 11, 2010 8:44 p.m.
