The Ardis Snoop: Page 2, May 16, 1973

Roger Streamwaters, representing the John Enough Development Corp., appeared before the Ardis Town Council Tuesday to seek approval of the corporation's plan to build an industrial complex for the manufacture, distribution, and maintenance of Cliff Campbell Portable Potties at the west end of Ardis.

Moments after his presentatin, E.L.V.E.S. (Earth Lovers Vindicating Eco-Space) stormed the meeting to present additional documented evidence. Critics exposed concrete glutar laboratory methods planned by John Enough as unsanitary, they said, and health officials have condemned the potties as unsafe. In addition, mystery shoppers hired for secret field-testing of the product called the condemned Cliff Campbell toilet "awkward."

Council members were not favorably disposed toward the corporation, up from the city, after last week's meeting, when they learned that local resident Tinkerbell Lessors had lost her home to the developer. Once the additional information was aired, they put the kibosh on the whole deal.

Citizens of Ardis can rest assured that the future of our economy is not in the crapper.

*WordCount has added to its database, and the sequences used in this piece are from the old database. Glutar seems to have been a typographical error in the old database. In the new database, guitar appears in its place. Guitar, of course, has no place in my little concoction, where glutar, which apparently isn't a real word at all, has a very useful scientific, chemical-process kind of sound. And since I make up the recipes around here, I'm stirrin' it into the pot. This, people, is the difference between a good cook and a great chef.
