Well my friend, being from MPLS, it must have been a long time ago you`ve traveled to Afon. Downtowm Afon is "yuppieville/wine-bar/art s and farts" now. The old afton is long gone. Just check it out, but bring a lot of cash and you to can walk along the river bank and sip wine at $10 a glass. They`ll love ya!

Why does that poster sound angry to you? It makes sense to me.

Think about it. I remember when it truely was a town of neighbors that lived like any small town. Yeah, we had people that would come through, but things like the 4th parade was a small town celebration, and places like Lerks [where my dad and grandfather hung out], or Selmas, and even the lumber company, catered to and employed the locals. Then the yuppie movement came, and the money grubbers looking to make their profits by turning the village into a yuppieville trap...with all the price that is paid to do it. Take a good hard look at the village now. Even main street looks more and more like a strip mall every year, with their "artsy-fartsy" crap in the windows, and prices for simple things like a beer and a burger are set to entice the road weary traveler like yourself, to a meal at a "winebar"? LOL...you love it? Why not move?

I did, and I moved because of people like you.

You`ve got to much time on your hands if driving to Afton was your weekend vacation plan, and if it was just for a day excusion, you really make my point!

Yuppies, you are all alike.

Liking to go for a drive with the kids to Selma's for Icecream makes you a yuppie. Get a life hosebag and get enrolled in some Anger Management counsling sessions. What a penishead.

Oh now THAT`S good advice coming from some as controled as you.

Did you read your own posting by chance?

Try your own advice...but I won`t call you a "hosebag", although that is more than likely what you are. You`re the one with the brats.

Here, let me give you a crying towel to wipe your tears away.

Get over it. The building is junk, and high priced ice cream is a joke. Even Lerks is closed, as the yuppie town expands the "wine bar" scene for pretend boaters and day trippers.
Whatever dude. It's a local hideout. I'd know. I'm local! Oh and yeah, the place is awesome. Glad we have it.

Daily Horoscope for May 21

Pisces

It's a great day for fixing anything that needs attention now. That might be a dripping tap, a sick child, an unpaid bill or a miffed partner. However, you'll do particularly well if you need to sort out something connected with official or joint finances or red tape. You might be asked to help someone deal with a bureaucratic problem, especially if they're elderly.
