OK, not to criticize people but seriously? I grew up 50 miles from any big stores. It was 6 miles just to the little local grocery that had just a few products. And we spent weeks canning foods to make it throught he winter. And previous generations had to ride horses miles into towns to get food. And now people have changed so much and are so spoiled that people complain that they have to 'drive' their air conditioned car an extra 30 seconds over an overpass to get to a store. What has happened to Americans?

And the fact that visitors coming Up the mtn don't wanna go over there either, KS is easier for them to navigate.

Just had to save this one for future laughs. Not sure what you are on but you are one of the only ones who think that. LJ..... Positive? :rofl rofllol
That just cost you some credibility with many people.

You really don't remember LJ fighting for information on the proposed rec district? That sounds like fighting for the community. LJ also gave an example of taking time to go to a meeting to speak up against that eyesore of a strip mall and Kings Valley. Do you not think that is taking a positive interest in the community?

Now, are you gonna start posting more positive stuff here to improve the board or keep bitching yourself?
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

To one person it's bitching; to another, it's telling it like it is. How we perceive statements written on a community forum board is even more subjective and subject to error than discussing face-to-face. If people give me less credit for having a more open mind and being willing to listen and consider opposing viewpoints, trying to understand why they believe what they believe rather than merely judging them for their views, then they aren't the type of people whose opinion I give a rat's @$$ about anyway. And you can take that however you like.The Viking wrote:
