you don't send me flowers

anymore....

neighborhood compatibility....WTF does this mean? I watched the SB City Council hearing about a lady on the west side who wants to build a house but she has a neighbor who doesn't like the design...and the neighbor pouted to the council why the house shouldn't be built....

but first, they had the public comment where a few mad dudes rant like Wayne Scoles...the jury who found him not guilty of screaming profanities at Cam Sanchez was obviously wrong...the guy has some sort of post traumatic stress syndrome and an authority complex...he went up screaming about Cammy "fire him.. fire him" and he went off on the cops "On Patrol" TV show..saying that the police get "hard ons" watching themselves on TV....

Mayor pro-tem Bendy White just sat there instead of telling Scoles to watch his language...if I were the mayor I would have had Scoles arrested and mentally evaluated!!

then another dude spoke about UFOs..then Bob Hansen spoke and told Sharon Byrne to stop the hate speech against the homeless..apparently Sharon told the News-Press that the homeless are terrorists!! hey, why don't we ban fat blonde chicks from the downtown area too!!

and some fine Latina babe spoke in favor of the house....

the house already had approval but it was being appealed...and listening to Mike Self and Dale Francisco, with the new gay hairdo, try telling us that maintaining traditional neighborhoods should be the over riding factor to deny property owners the right to improve their houses....what?
and then Dale says the planning staff or ARB are unethical for approving the project because they missed a detail or something....uh, Dale you are owned by the most unethical person in Santa Barbara..WENDY!!! and for a guy who talks alot on the council he doesn't seem to say very much.....

MRS. McCAW....GIVE YOUR EMPLOYEES A RAISE!!!

so what is a traditional neighborhood? what is a compatible house..a house that gets along with other houses?? look, houses can't be compatible...only living beings can and if you don't get flowers anymore then you're not compatible anymore...simple

you can't assign a human trait to a house..like you can't say "ohh , that house looks happy!"
or "wow, my house is mad at me today"....can you??

so the house in question will have an industrial look to it which I think is cool....like the old feed stores or even like a greenhouse....I love greenhouses! I say you put more greenhouses in Satan Barbara and kill off a coupla Pearl Chase Society members...they always put words in Pearl's mouth, so why don't just join her in the hereafter and let people build their houses...or greenhouses..for all we know Pearl Chase may have liked greenhouses and flowers...

but no grow houses, ok?
