#1 Pharmaceutically addicted residents on the inside....good-to-go. Cedar Village gets a piece of that action.

#3 The Housing Authority doesn't seem to want to budge, though - Chairman Stephen Karp and Executive Director Melinda Harvey say that making an exception to the rule - implemented about 18 months ago - isn't going to happen.

Sounds like Chairman Stephen Karp is on a power trip - unwilling to even compromise. He's basically saying he has to show the residents who's 'BOSS'.

#4 It's probably a "no pets" facility, so the residents can't even fling dog turds at the bastard.

#5 "... ever notice how the gov always looses records that might cost them money?"

Yep - that's why I got my complete medical record (which, miraculously, I had, upon retirement) and camped over the unit copy machine, duplicating every single page of a medical record in which there was nothing much astonishing save exposure to asbestos in the late 1980s in a Quonset hut at an airbase in Spain, which had probably been intended to be a temporary building but was on it's third to fourth decade of service. Yeah, I sat in the radio studio for three or four years, probably breathed in whatever asbestos there was.
Yes, I copied my medical records ... and yes, the chronic cough I have now is likely due to the notorious cedar pollen of South Texas. But yes, I have a copy of those records. Just in case.
