Greenfield, Massachusetts And The Retail Development – "My Turn" by Penny Rickets

On December 7, 2010, in Business in Greenfield - Massachusetts, Greenfield, MA, Politics in Greenfield, Massachusetts, by Editor

I challenge the media outlets as well as anyone speaking to the Planning Board to begin using the words “proposed retail development.” Those who don’t will only suggest to me that they plan to keep the fear factor alive and well. Let’s remember, it’s only going to be a store or two.

Greenfield, Massachusetts: Voting Is Schtunk!

On November 9, 2010, in Greenfield, MA, Politics in Greenfield, Massachusetts, by Editor

Life in this little town of Greenfield, Massachusetts never ceases to amaze me! For a while, I analyzed Mr. Yarmac’s writing to find a hint of humor or sarcasm and categorize it as a bad joke. Unfortunately, that is not the case.

Greenfield Coalition for a Sustainable Future: The Facts – 1

On October 20, 2010, in Greenfield, MA, Politics in Greenfield, Massachusetts, by Editor

On their web site, the Greenfield Coalition for a Sustainable Future lists a “press” reference to the Valley Post, a website operated out of Brattleboro, Vermont. Their article is titled “Like a Leech, Wal-Mart Returns to Greenfield,” which did not boost my trust in the writer’s journalistic responsibility (i.e. truthful representation of the facts.)

The Power And The Danger Of A Successful Blog

On October 18, 2010, in Blogging, Blogging Aspects, Greenfield, MA, Marketing, Politics in Greenfield, Massachusetts, Professional Blogging, WordPress Tips, by Editor

I started this website as a personal blog to write about everything I love and hate, hoping that somebody in the outside world would read it, and afraid that somebody in the outside world would read it. Blogging is a never-ending learning process, especially when success is attached to it.

Greenfield, Massachusetts And The "Walmart Protective Gate"

On October 1, 2010, in Greenfield, MA, Politics in Greenfield, Massachusetts, by Editor

The so-called “Greenfield Coalition for a Sustainable Future” is a group of local business owners who feel threatened by the prospect of a Walmart in town. They are wealthy residents annoyed by the prospect of increased traffic in their neighborhood. And the ring leader is Al Norman, an obsessive-compulsive character who fights Walmart on a national basis. His interest is Walmart, and Walmart alone. The needs of the town of Greenfield, Massachusetts don’t play any role in this scenario.

Greenfield, Massachusetts And Its Male Sarah Palin Version

On September 23, 2010, in Greenfield, MA, Politics in Greenfield, Massachusetts, by Editor

The Tea Party is represented by a group of Greenfield residents who calls themselves the “Greenfield Coalition for a Sustainable Future,” and our Sarah Palin imitation is Ben S. Clarke, ex-speechwriter and extreme right-wing Conservative.

The CAVE People Of Greenfield And Their Politburo

On September 10, 2010, in Greenfield, MA, Politics in Greenfield, Massachusetts, The C.A.V.E. people of Greenfield, Massachusetts, by Editor

We are now able to identify the C.A.V.E. people (C.A.V.E. = Citizens Against Virtually Everything) of Greenfield, Massachusetts. The C.A.V.E. people are a very aggressive minority of the population, thriving to preserve their established lifestyle. The term ‘politburo’ comes to mind due to the methods they use to reach their goal, which include harassment, distribution of falsified information, and turning a blind eye toward the low-income majority.

On September 8, 2010, in Greenfield, MA, Politics in Greenfield, Massachusetts, by Editor

A check for $250 from Walmart was received by Cliff Fournier, coordinator of the Orange meal-site of the Franklin County Community Meals program. It was presented by store manager Ty Hapworth and Santa Lajole.

The CAVE People of Greenfield, Massachusetts and the Walmart Issue

On August 27, 2010, in Greenfield, MA, Politics in Greenfield, Massachusetts, The C.A.V.E. people of Greenfield, Massachusetts, by Editor

Some time ago, the people of Greenfield, Massachusetts voted by a margin of 2:1 to admit the devil into town, and lucifer will build his residence in form of a Walmart supermarket. At least that is the view of a very aggressive minority (the “1″ in the 2:1 ratio) in Greenfield. They are also known as the CAVE people of Greenfield, Massachusetts (CAVE = Citizens Against Virtually Everything).

My Resignation from the Franklin County Community Meals Program (FCCMP)

On August 27, 2010, in Greenfield, MA, Politics in Greenfield, Massachusetts, by Editor

The decision to resign as an FCCMP board member came after writing a post about the current discussion on the proposed large retail store, the so-called “Walmart Issue.” At the moment of this writing, the post is still in draft mode (i.e. it is not published, but it will be soon). In the post I criticize Amy Clarke of “crossing the line” by publicly opposing a big box store, specifically its size, without the FCCMP’s board’s explicit understanding that her public activities will not interfere with her responsibilities at the FCCMP.
