If Everett's the pearl of the West Coast, why doesn't he go try driving efficiencies there and leave us the hell alone

They left out another one of his good lines. Directly to an older lady, "I'm a man of principle, and I know you are too."

My vote's for 'Fat Butt and Pancake Head'. Cartman at his weirdest and most petty. And the ending. The sweet, twisty ending. "Ha ha ha ha ha ha. I got you kinda."
But the Tenorman chili was mind-blowing at the time.

Alan G,
I think it comes down to this. You're right in feeling that neighborhood input is unfairly being sidestepped through technicality. The quality of neighborhood in this city is one of the best things going for it, and that quality should be preserved by any new development.
But, if Holden properly quoted you as saying, 'Anyone who can scrape up enough money for month-to-month rent can live there' and that it would be a 'magnet for sketchy people', then from me (a non-sketchy month-to-month grad student living on the hill) to you: boo-fucking-hoo. I feel for the 48 people who'll get to live next to your cranky, nimby-ass.
And not to belabor the point, but is it really the best idea to complain that a developer is trying to make some money off of a development (the horror!), while at the same time you're trying to unload your place for $875k?
