City of Sparks, NV - Firewood VOUCHERS $40

Since we're ALL SO TIRED of politics these days even though we're still trying to talk sense into the heads of those voting on Nov. 4th; I thought I'd relieve myself for a day and just talk about something LOCAL. I've not vocally called anyone STUPID to their faces yet, although I try to talk sense adding 2+2 WITHOUT HAVING to call someone stupid because they cannot = 4! FIREWOOD VOUCHERS $40 was a local story. However, the concept was so STUPID I realized you just cannot get beyond trying to teach others COMMON SENSE! Here are my points... THIS IS A PHOTO OF 1/3 CORD UNFINISHED WOOD! (one-third cord of large irregular shaped mixed wood/rounds (not split) NOTE: 1/3 is SMALLER than 1/2 ;) THIS IS A PHOTO OF 1/2 CORD FINISHED WOOD! (NOTE: 1/2 FINISHED ISN'T much bigger than 1/3 UNFINISHED!) THIS IS A PHOTO OF TWO CORDS SPLIT WOOD Firewood vouchers (one-half cord of large irregular shaped mixed wood/rounds (not split) Cost is $40 per voucher, redeemable for one-half cord Firewood will be available for pick up between 8 a.m. and noon on Saturday (ONE DAY) FIRST COME FIRST SERVED BASIS! Proceeds from the sale of the firewood, collected from tree trimming and tree removal projects over the course of the year...will benefit Parks & Recreation. In a city of 500,000 people (county wide)...they ONLY MANAGED to clean up or remove enough wood to give 40 people 1/2 cord of trash wood? BULLSHIT! I come from Texas. Most people wanting wood cleared will GIVE YOU any wood you want if you do the WORK! Our city could have SAVED THOUSANDS in labor dollars if they would have offered VOUCHERS for FREE WOOD to any that wanted to work for it where they needed it cleared. NO, they paid people to do it for a YEAR, and NOW we only have enough crap wood to give 40 people at $40 each! And we're worried about who's going to be President! Perhaps we should start with who is President of Parks & Recreation! The story WAS going to end there...but when I searched for a "generic" photo of "firewood unsplit", I got these... I Googled the long phrase: "cord of large irregular shaped mixed wood/rounds (not split)" Guess WHAT showed up? ONLY 5 photos, most of necklaces (whatever) but what really stood out, was...YEP, you guessed it...the logo of the City of Sparks..."who'd 've thunk it" Well, I KNOW it's the exact phrase that did it...but FOR ONCE...MY POINT EXACTLY...ASK PEOPLE WHO KNOW FIREWOOD BEFORE YOU GO TRYING TO "SELL" VOUCHERS! Vouchers didn't work in the schools, they WON'T work in FIREWOOD! People work, SAVE our tax payer dollars and GIVE VOUCHERS to folks willing to GATHER AND CLEAN your wood piles! DUH!
