Meeting was great. Great attendance. Glad I went.
"Historic Woodland Downtown Merchants?"
Just how old are the members? Ha ha. Sounds like a name Anita would come up with...I give this organization little or no chance. Of course given that Anita and Brenda have worked to undermine and oppose every other effort that's been tried downtown maybe the rats will stay with the ship this time.
I still can't understand where comments like 7:45 come from.
The downtown merchants are just trying to eek out an existance in this lovely town.
Brenda and Anita are just two merchants in the downtown. When comments like this are made it is meant as a mean spirit to all the downtown merchants.
All of us in the downtown are trying to re-unite, re-group, and revive this fine City.
When I was growing up my mother always taught me "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all". Just good manners.
On the other hand, if you have some advice that you feel would help the situation out, let's hear it. I am sure you do not have a grudge against ALL the merchants, do you?
one of the "rats" as you put it.
So what have they (Anita and Brenda) opposed that was so good for the downtown since you seem to know the history. I am new to this.
I would like to know more history.
I have no problem with downtown merchants. Many of them are great people and I hold them in high esteem. Nor would I ever describe them as "rats." But having watched this current bunch who are behind this push undermine and criticize and do everything they could to stop any number of downtown initiatives over the years, I can't stomach this. I wish the downtown nothing but good things. I am confident that Anita's past will soon either catch up to her or she will be unable to resist being mean and that will be the end of it.
I have to agree.
"But having watched this current bunch who are behind this push undermine and criticize and do everything they could to stop any number of downtown initiatives over the years"
Seems you are the same person who just posting a different version.
Pointing out a number of initiatives that they have undermined so I again ask what have they stopped or prevented from occurning downtown?
Your comments appear to be nothing more than a personal attack rather than factual.
Ahh, just the facts, eh?
It's clear that you are either with them or have no history downtown. Frankly, it's not my job to educate you so believe what you want. If you have any ability to learn you will learn soon enough.
Have a nice day!
Ahh 8:37 AM whats the matter nobody wants to play with you? Did you get your feeling hurt?
Just worthless rambling. Blah Blah Blah
Just for the record I am not a Brenda fan. I am supportive of Anita she and other merchants are attempting to re-group and that in my eyes is what our downtown needs.
Based upon what I am hearing things are heading in a good direction. I wish her well.
That last comment is just the Jr. High response Woodland NEEDS to eliminate.
They already said they were new to the downtown. So enlighten them, if you have any knowledge. Otherwise YOU are the attitudinal problem ALL us downtowners are dealing with.

Ahhh, if you only knew, buddy. Been there - done that. I wish you well and wish better things for you than the downward course this group will take.
So let me get this straight. So far Anita and her "rats" as you claim have spent how much our city money so far?
Answer 0 dollars

"Ahhh, if you only knew..."
What kind of response is that? You brought up nonspecific allegations and bloggers are calling you on them - but you can't seem to support your empty words.
What is the "downward course" the group will take? Words randomly spring from your keyboard but nobody knows what you're talking about.
The informed do, buddy boy. The informed do...smile.
I have to agree with the critic that there is some history here with these particular folks. They have been a big part of the divisions over the years and so they have a lot to prove. We'll just have to wait and see if the leopard can change its spots. I'll be watching Anita.
8:15 Informed
By all means, keep trying to make a point.
