If Deborah thinks this list is impossibly rude, try the Chatham Bulletin Board, which I left, but I’m not leaving here. This is informative of things happening that are not in the Chatham Record and a way to be locally informed. Just think of these occasional immature posts from the same old (or maybe young, since the aspect of “age” seems to be one of their bugaboos) name-calling folks under their pseudonyms as entertainment.
But in regard to one business person who does have the guts to post under their real name (thank you), I have to admit I would have a hard time eating at an establishment named after a poison. So I won’t be giving any business to that person who goes all out to divide our community even moreso than it has been.
