Boy, I was agettin my dander up last night at that dad-gum HIGHLANDS COALITION meetin. LSC member DONNA COPPOLA asked the MAYOR if anything could be done about what seems to be a growing rash of DOMESTIC VIOLENCE arrest. This is a major concern because it directly affects the learning environment. Now I'm not talking about the kind of environment where the trees need ahuggin. No I;m atalkin about the mix, the milieu. (Sorry for usin one of those fancy, frenchy words but I thunk you'd thought I was more smarter).
"There's a real disconnect in the court system. Visitation and custody and all the family matters are handled in PROBATE court civil and DOMESTIC VIOLENCE is handled in criminal court and one causes the odder."
Now I was about to get in to a long discussion about differin thresholds but I was startin to sound like a PHILADELPHI lawyer and I was a gettin a dizzy. I says I had me some experience in these here matters.
Now before I could preach and pontificate more that smart mouthed MAYOR needled my haystack, "That's because not everybody has been married four times."
They were all laughed at me. Can you imagine that? What was I gonna say? What should I do? Well I did what I could. I laughed and admitted I deserved it. DARN SMARTY PANTS, MAYOR. Isn't she one of them legal-like lawyer fellas? Them there skirts can be deceiving.
