A very bitter and emotionally un-healthy neighbor who is very unhappy about noise at closing time has started a petition against my application for a beer and wine license. I am told that he has gone door to door asking people to sign his petition against the new “late night bar” that is coming in. He has also gone to the pentacostal church and gathered signatures there. The last time those people organized against something it was to ban gay marriage. That ‘s  who I am up against.

There is an article about it in the community paper. Read the comments section and you will see that something about French restaurants bring out the clock tower sniper in everyone.
