Profile Picture for AnteUp

Never shy about putting in my two-cent's worth.
A local reporter was scouring the neighborhood for the local's opinion
on an issue. I saw him enjoin my neighbor up the hill in conversation,
and I saw my neighbor point down to me. Almost immediately the
reporter (with cameraman in tow) came down the hill and asked for
my comments. I interrupted and asked if he could tell me what my
neighbor had said first. He laughed and said my neighbor had said,
" See that person down there? You should go ask them -
they've got an opinion on EVERYTHING."
So there you go - it's not a secret!
VERY opinionated but always - if not happy to be - at least willing to
be corrected if wrong.
