ultimatum of the mild-mannered

April 17th, 2006:

I again call Tanya, get voicemail, and leave a detailed message about the previous day’s events. (I know the drill.)

Additionally, I ruminate about the importance to the community that this public facility is open as directed and available for public use.

Possible angles:

  • We’ve got an epidemic of overweight children and we’re looking them out of a public area?
  • The vandals can climb the fence but younger and older people cannot, age discrimination?
  • the tennis courts are open, but the basketball courts are not: rich white vs poor minority?

I’m stretching the point to insane limits; but I’m ready for that, nothing else has worked.

I also mention that this is the last time I will call the school system, next time time it will be the newspapers and then the City Council.
