Napkin Man Goes after Speakers at Public Forum Now!

 "Napkin Man" is not happy.

He likes to send letters to the commissioners and others to express his rather opinionated views.

Often his letters are on cut in half envelopes or napkins, thus the term "Napkin Man."

He has sent some doozies over the year.  Check out these recent ones.  Here, here, and here.

Now, apparently, he is going after speakers at our Public Forums.

This one, below, was recently sent to Public Forum regular Larry Downs Jr.  

Who the heck is Napkin Man?

Haha.

I actually thought what LDJ said about Barry.. "We all know what you want... All you can get" -- was rather poignant, really.

Life's a stage.

I was so happy to find out that the Octogenarian Epistolarian is still alive and kicking! Yeah!!!!!!

That was indeed the good old days, when the craziest coot on the scene was some old dude firing off profanity-laced scratch paper letters in old-school Christian school cursive. If I had to guess, he's showing a high Episcopalian or ME bent from all those tight shaky loop de loop scrolls. Whatever the case, I haven't seen the ___CAPITALS___ !!!!! in that type of falling down line since my WW2 veteran great uncles all passed.

Only one quibble: who's this "we," kimosabe?

Napkin guy maybe on my case after I plan on speaking on a commissioners Karaoke and how to improve it I will recommend a certain public advocate give him singing lessons. They can sing together as a duet. Its a great way to mend fences and build relationships.

That's a great idea, Eric. I would LOVE to see Larry and Kohler singing Sweet Caroline together.

Mel, what duet is Bergosh and Boss Berry singing today after their money grab court case decision? A new edition of Oliver Anthony’s hit single maybe? They could call it, “Rich men on North Palafox.”
