You’re a Vindictive One, Mr. Grinch

POTTSTOWN, PA – Yes true believers…it’s that time of the year again.  Time to get out the ink and quill and write those nasty anonymous grammatically-incorrect letters and mail them off to Pottstown’s elected officials.

Talk about spreading good cheer!

Check out our good friends over at Code Blue for the scoop on this latest instance of postal cowardice:

The Truth Must Really Hurt

We’ve got a real mystery on our hands folks!  Who in Pottstown could possibly have the time on their hands to have penned such a dastardly letter??  Well…let’s think about this.  It would have to be someone who doesn’t hold a job – perhaps a retiree of some sort.  Hmmm.

Aside from the grammatical screw ups, it appears very well written (we’re thinking of coughing up the $50 entry fee so we can forward the letter to the Pultizer Prize Board for consideration).  But…alas…there are many, many grammatical errors in the letter…so it can’t possibly be from someone who earned their living from writing.  Hmmm.

And…my goodness…what a coincidence…aren’t there a number of seats up for grabs in Pottstown’s elections next year??  Hmmm.

Maybe it’s someone who’s older…somebody who’s been around the block long enough to hold a lifetime of angry and hostile attitudes towards those who have crossed him (or her).  Hmmm.

We don’t know who on earth could have penned this letter.  It really is a mystery, isn’t it folks?  Maybe we need to re-read some of our posts here at SavePottstown!! to try to figure out who might be behind writing this letter.

After all, we can’t think of anyone in Pottstown who fits this description…or who has done this during past election cycles. Someone who writes anonymous letters and circulates them to select folks in Pottstown??  Who would do such a thing?  It’s too bad we’re all such a bunch of dumb asses who can’t put two and two together.

If any of our readers see any shifty persons mailing letters in Pottstown (or maybe some suspicious-looking characters walking around town with envelopes in their hands), please contact the police.

    If I can’t find a reindeer, I’ll make one – instead!!

    Sad, if the person that wrote this letter is the person we all seem to think it might be then P’town = Max and has a VERY heavy sled to pull for the Grinchy Claus. This film, however, did have a happy ending what with the Grinch’s heart growing 3 sizes that day – I’m not holding my breath about this Grinch having a change of heart.

    Perhaps next he’ll turn into a rabid Easter Bunny…

    “…perversion of facts…pervasive personal agenda hidden beneath the surface of the actions of their leadership…” Sounds autobiographical, to me?!?!?

    PS – crabgrass grows on the surface and spreads by choking out pretty much anything as it sends runners out that FIRMLY affix themselves to the ground to root and repeat the cycle. Code Blue should, actually, be flattered that this type of comparison was made. BTW, weed killer kills everything, specific crabgrass killer doesn’t harm the surrounding grass most people would want to keep SO throwin’ the same logic right back at the ‘Mark Twain’ writing the letter – to ‘stamp out’ the undesired “weed” we must kill everything and start from scratch? Hope this gardener has enough grass seed to cultivate a prize-winning lawn (all their own design).

    It’s all a bit egocentric for me!!!
