YAY Greg!!!! go Greg!!! he's our guy!!! (we need pom poms )

Greg makes me think of another question....never having any experience at all with a Fire Marshall, is that a hired position or an elected position? I'm guessing since it's "Marshall" it's hired. but who does he report to? Maybe it's time to talk to that person and let them know he's trying to turn a party into a business.

I do like Greg's idea of just string some chain and a lock across your entry, it would at least get the point across. When we lived out in Williamson Co we had two huge poles and a metal gate, it wasn't attached to anything, you could walk around it, but you couldn't drive around it, and it wasn't locked, but it had a no trespass sign and it got the point across. well, that and the bumpy 80 degree hill. I do still miss that spot.

Thanks that feels all too familiar. :(


Update: my dad went and talked with the fire marshal today in an hour meeting. Basically the fire marshal thinks we are a business and wants us to go through the hoopla that involves, $500k in insurance, engineering work,.... The Fire Marshal also said that we cannot have 20 people that at a time. Excuse me?! I thought this was America, where if a land owner can enjoy his freedoms and not have somebody making up laws/rules out of a whim.

So would the NRA be interested in helping, or even the 2nd Amendment foundation?

what right does the Fire Marshall have to say that you are a business? do you call yourself by a special name? do you charge? just because your friends gave you a donation doesn't mean squat! when I host a soap-making session and my friends give me a donation to help cover expenses that doesn't mean I'm a business....yet (maybe sometime) sounds like your local Fire Marshall is on a power trip

well, is it that you can't call it a club unless you have more than 20 people, but it doesn't even have to be a business and "they" can call you a club if you have more than 20 people.....hey, wait a minute, how do "they" know if he has more than 20 people there in a year? he doesn't have a list! this is crazy and it's making my head hurt, the only thing I'm understanding from it for sure is that we can't have a get together at his house and texJ has a REALLY big family
