More Feedback

Since I gave the We think Jc is a Loser Club their own topic so everyone could see their opinions of moi.  I thought it was appropriate to let you see the other comments!  I have since received a couple of thoughtful, positive and grammatically correct comments.......

JC, Kudos for the effort. I find it interesting that those who criticize you offer nothing constructive, rather sounding like angry 12 year olds that have yet to master even the basics of the English language, and too cowardly to even sign their names. You are a voice, whether people agree with your point of view or not. If more residents of our community showed even a smidgen of the interest that you do, We could move in a much more progressive direction that we have up until now. Alexandria Bay has tremendous potential, but it must be nurtured, and guided in the right direction, but without leadership, where will that direction come from? The Village Government can't even figure out how to collect dockage fees or keep the streets clean! Ron Mowers

Good speech and on point. A very tough task to face the Good Old Boys "Club". I was a summer resident in the 60's and finally a full timer from the 70's on. I've seen the village initially from an outside perspective and things haven't changed much in 5 decades. The "Club" likes to think that the the Village is Mayberry when in fact it's a model for the Dukes of Hazzard. Corruption, high jinks and drama. A lot of talk about what we should do and no action or planning on how to fix things. Hands in the cookie jar and even when getting caught red handed, one person lies and the other swears to it. Jim, you may be able to do a better job at fixing these problems from outside of office. Information is power and maybe if more people can see what's going on behind their backs they'll quit the "Club" and support someone who can plan a brighter future for the Bay. We may have inherited this condition but it doesn't mean that we have to pass it along to our kids.
