Jo4 Lanier Son ? <4 9?Jl Kenansville's new liquor-bp-the-drink law hat somi outaiden drooling, wanting to be anntxed into the town Previously they would have been up-in-artns if the towr were to talk annexation. 1, personally, do not think this LBD business will be the golden goose some seem to think I do believe Kenansville voters will vote out LBD as fast as it wit voted in if Sunday beer sales cause the commotion in the town park it once caused. I also believe it was as much a lack of supervision or law enforcement in the park as it was sales of beer on Sunday that caused the problem. It got out of hand before anyone tried to bring it back in hand. If park rules say "No Alcoholic Beverages," enforce the rules and make no exceptions. If the Duplin County jails won't hold them all, take them to surrounding county jails. As for this satellite annexation, I would think the main factor in determining if the petition for annexation would be honored, is just how much money will be put into Kenansville's tax collections. . .and if it were not substantial, it would be denied. **??? If you have never been in a dunking tank, let mc tell you that first dunking is an experience ? especially if you are at that age where your reactions are not as fast as they once were. . .Ob, yes, add to that, you are a little overweight. When the ball hit the target and that trap seat let go, I sank like a rock. My bottom end bounced off the bottom of that tank. . .The water went rushing up my nose and I think, out my ears. . .No. it didn't go out my ears. Some of it is still in my head. As I got up on the seat a second time, someone asked if I was cold, as I was shaking. . .No, I was not so cold as I was nervous. I was doing all right as most folks would hit it once out of three balls. . .But someone brung in the young mar. from Bowdens who was hitting it three out of three, and they kept feeding him money to buy more balls. . .Thank goodness they could only stand so much of a good thing and finally got bored, or I would have drowned.. .L.S. Guy was the ftrst to sink me. but he gave me some good advice and let mc use his shoes. . .So. now I know what it is to be in the school superintendent L.S. Guy's shoes for half an hour.. .It is not all that pleasant. . .The advice? Guy said, "Joe, just relax "and let it happen. . .Don't fight it and you will be better off." . . Well, he was right. Of course there was no way for my reaction time to fight it. . .When your seat falls from under you and suddenly you find yourself falling, you just can't help but be a little apprehensive. . .It wasn't really too bad. but I don't have a time set to do it again. . .If ever I do it again, I want a diving helmet!. .. Did you notice CP&L was not given the rate increase it desired. . .And it was told that some of the salary increases should be Daid by the stockholders, . .not just by its captive cdCTomers. . The stock market did not drop as drastically as they had predicted either. . ***** This business with Tylenol being poisoned shows us how volncrable we are on many things. . .It also shows how trusting we are. Shoplifters have for years opened bottles and removed what they wanted. However, this is the first known time anyone has put anything in to kill. . .Remember the childish game of changing the salt and sugar in a restaurant? Well, this idea of putting in things that kill or maim is not funny. It is frightening. Pills can be changed, too, or laced. Talk is of a tamper-proof cap or package, but is there such a thino' Th? *?.?i 11? ^ . _ ?-??* - >vhi v??? nvjuwi can bo tampered with, arid is in some cases. Pjerhaps a package with a blue background that changes to red when the air hits it? If U shows up red at the store, don't buy it. . .If it doesn't show up red when you oper, it, don't take it. . .The next thing, can you control the paper or chemical that makes it change?. . I suppose there will always be some risk. However, that risk can be cut.. Son-of-a-Gun.. . Sarecta United Methodist Homecoming Sunday Dr. Caricton P.
