Old Doesn't Mean Historic

As you ponder this website keep in mind the very relevant words of the respected former Town Attorney:

"I have always maintained that if Abraham Lincoln had been assassinated at the local Giant, that structure would be historic. One the other hand, the Mayor's [former Mayor Robinson] antique chicken house is very old, but in my mind has no historic value."

The current Town Attorney Steve Briglia (Briglia & Hundley, P.C.) would be well advised to heed this wisdom.

Quote

"A man who lies to himself, and believes his own lies, becomes unable to recognize truth, either in himself or in anyone else, and he ends up losing respect for himself and for others. When he has no respect for anyone, he can no longer love, and in him, he yields to his impulses, indulges in the lowest form of pleasure, and behaves in the end like an animal in satisfying his vices. And it all comes from lying to others and to yourself."
- Fyodor Dostoyevsky
