Palin and White Cliff
By Chas Edwardson

I literally (no joke) laughed out loud all by myself drinking coffee in my kitchen at 5am after reading the "Palin opens new White cliff School article " (Ketchikan Daily news article dated March 31 2009). I waited to write this comment until today April 2 2009 to see if it was as funny as the first time I read it --"it was".

Here it is, let's take the names out of it and just say it like this:

I SOLD MY HOUSE TO A FRIEND FOR 500,000 DOLLARS OF WHICH I NEVER RECEIVED , THEN I LET MY FRIEND REMODEL MY HOUSE AND THEN i ASKED ANOTHER FRIEND WHO DOESN'T REALLY LIKE ME (Palin admin) TO BORROW 9 AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS TO BUY MY HOUSE BACK. BUT FIRST I WANTED MY 1ST FRIEND TO RECOVER HIS COST. SO I WANT TO LEASE THE house I owned in the first place!! FOR TEN YEARS AT NEARLY 4 AND A HALF MILLION, SO I NEED TO BORROW the 4 AND A HALF MILL (FROM WHOEVER) SO AS NOT TO INCONVENIENCE MY 1ST FRIEND, TO GET THE HOUSE BACK THAT I OWNED IN THE FIRST PLACE. This does sound funny - doesn't it?? Or is it just me? I'm sure there's more to it?? But if someone from the outside who read this not knowing the genius of our Borough Assembly -- "VENEER MILL, BOWL FACTORY, WARD COVE" -- they would think it was funny. I'm just saying.

I would like to thank the KETCHIKAN DAILY NEWS for lifting my spirits while I sit hear waiting for a spring that never seems to come. I would like to thank them for lifting my spirits by letting me know I am not the most gullible person in the room.
