park bench.
He spoke to the U.S. Marine standing guard and said, 'I would like to go in and meet with President Bush.'

The Marine looked at the man and said, 'Sir, Mr. Bush is no longer
president and no longer resides here.'

The old man said, 'Okay, thank you' and walked away.

The following day, the same man approached the White House
and said to the same Marine, 'I would like to go in and meet with
President Bush.'

The Marine again told the man, 'Sir, as I said yesterday, Mr. Bush is no longer president and no longer resides here.'

The man thanked him and, again, just walked away.

The third day, the same man approached the White House and
spoke to the very same U. S. Marine, saying 'I would like to go
in and meet with President Bush.'

The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at
the man and said, 'Sir, this is the third day in a row you have
been here asking to speak to Mr. Bush. I've told you already
that Mr. Bush is no longer the president and no longer resides
here. Don't you understand?'

The old man looked at the Marine and said, 'Oh, I understand.
I just love hearing it.'

The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said, 'See you
tomorrow, Sir'.

I was involved in a meeting with some residents and heard them talk about the weekenders in a not so nice way. "What do they think it is playground on the weekend"..............you'd be surprised what you hear in places that you do not expect to.

I was once told by a local that they heard The Hideout had sent a petition and letter to the local grocery story Weis...they wanted them to close on Saturdays to the locals because The Hideout folks wanted to shop in the store without any locals around. They wanted the store all to themselves.

Now...there is no way that was true.

Funny, I heard the same thing about Hemlock Farms, and never found out if it was true or not.
