''Controlling Your Children''

Posted in: Creekview Estates-Forest

As a black man and new resident of the community I have read with much interest the comments of the citizenry of this esteemed community. While I have no problem with the sporadic encounter of children I do have one issue of interest that I would like to pose to the community.

 

And that issue is marmot farming. I have noted with some trepidation that the practice has enumerated itself in recent months and seems to have reached epic proportions in and around our residence.

 

While I understand the pressures of an imbalanced economy I find it troubling that such creatures are being farmed, raised, and subsequently traded on the local black marmot market in and around the metro San Antonio area.

 

Being from Mississippi I can can say with much authority that an encounter with a wild or domesticated marmot provokes quite a bit of anxiety. If the creature is of the "striped-torso" variety those fears are amplified considerably.

 

It is not uncommon for a Mississipiian, upon encountering a marmot, to seize upon the beast with any one of a pitchfork, kitchen waddling stem, or assorted ranching gear designed for moments of provocation.

 

If the residents of this community find my input troubling then I do forthrightly apologize and would be willing to assert my concerns personally at the next meeting. Until then I suggest that everyone with available resources purchase a canvas body kit and an aluminum cricket bat for personal defense in the event of a stampede.

 

Until then, I am truly yours,

 

Rufus Turner, Esq.

Mr Turner,

 

I'm sorry, but you'll have to explain yourself to be more clear.
