'Good Article But...'

A look at the day's comments from Patch account holders in the region.

From Brookfield Readers:

"Good article but you forgot to mention one important thing! To get rid of 15 to 30 pounds of belly fat will require patience and persistence. It will take time and consistent discipline to melt those really ugly pounds with attention to nutrition, cardio, resistance and flexibility exercise, and (again) more nutrition. You really have to commit to a new lifestyle that doesn't stop when you've reached your target weight. It will all come back if you revert. I've been there." —

"BP all the way" —

From Neighboring Patch Towns:

"First, they are trees, not human beings. I always chuckle about how up in arms some people get over the removal, replacement or whatever of a few trees anywhere... whether it is on Main Street or not. If they present a hazard, time to chip em. Second, I think the cost of replacement at rouhgly $8k is substantial, but the good news is that Jeb Walker received almost that much in illicit pension payments. So, maybe the town should ask him to donate the money to the tree budget. Hah! Fat chance." -  

"They should all be sent upstate for sipping that devil juice." -

 

"I do hope people read this, this is amazing! How sloppy, this would not be tolerated if it were a private business being renovated, why is our government putting up with this and to what expense to the taxpayer?" -

"Here's the deal. They dont have to eat the fruit nor vegetable but they must take it. This whole program is a waste of food if the kids just throw it in the garbage." -

"Put a big sign on the property - Bank of America owns this house and is responsible for this MESS - make a video and put it on YouTube" -

"Good luck proving that FedEx is the responsible party though...Glad doggie is on the mend." -

"Besides the fact that the driver reported to his supervisor that he Ran. Over. The. Dog." -

"The mosquitoes in Rye speak French and drive a Pickup so we are safe from West Nile Virus." -

Oh dont you worry, were gonna vote, but not going to vote to increase taxes thats for sure. Do withRead More what you have.

I would recommend supporting an increase similar to Ridgefield's which was under 2% (1.97%). If aRead More community like Ridgefield can perform at high levels with an increase under 2%, the Board of Education, in asking for almost twice that is openly admitting that they have installed inefficient management in school administration. Further, the sewer system on the referendum will require municipal funding since it is backed by the full faith and credit of the town of Brookfield and reduces the town's borrowing ability - the advertisement for which indicated it would not impact municipal funding.

So Mandarin Chinese won't be a requirement? Perhaps Manchurin Chinese? Cantonese Chinese? MongolianRead More Chinese? Which Chinese are the British speaking these days? Their empire stretched in the Hindu speaking parts of Asia but they aren't teaching Hindu. A quandry indeed.

The board of education's policy should pertain to all employees of the Brookfield Board ofRead More Education.

The short answer is because they want to. If you spent twice at much they still would. EducationRead More personnel need to be monitored on social media like Patch.

I will lend a hand by voting yes for the school budget this Tuesday, May 21st. Teachers should notRead More have to pay out of pocket for school supplies.

Interesting that representative Scribner fails to represent Brookfield's businesses choosing insteadRead More to focus on Ridgefields.
