Channel 8001

Is up and

running!

Channel 8001 on U-verse (formerly Channel 63

at Comcast) is now available for your perusal.

By the time you get to read this column, I will be pack-

ing for my trek back to Florida from upstate New York. I

feel that Southern accent forming again after 5 months

away!

I know that all of my friends in Delray Villas and

practically all of Florida was complaining about the op-

pressive heat this summer. Right now I am feeling the

need for some of that heat. It has turned cold in the

Northeast, the temperatures dropping below 50o at night

here in the mountains. My bones ache! But I am not com-

plaining. It has been a wonderful summer - loads of sun-

shine, great swimming days, friends and family to help

celebrate and enjoy the most remarkable milestone birth-

day, and a new learning experience, studying Russian.

For the immediate future, however, I am taking stock

of my life, hoping to take strength from all the good in my

life to make amends for the hurt I may have caused others

and be forgiving for any hurt I have felt from others as

well. This is something my faith has taught me to do at

this time of the year and so I meditate, read the Good

Book, pray for peace and health, and wish all of you the

same through the fall and coming winter. For those of

you who celebrate the Jewish High Holidays, I want to

personally wish you to be inscribed this year for health

and prosperity.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

FROM THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

It is extremely important that you come to the Gen-

eral/Board meeting on October 25, 2016 at 7:30 PM in the

“A” Building. That is the appropriate time for discussion

about upcoming Board elections and the requirements for

candidates.

More important, it is the time for the homeowners to

learn about and discuss the 2017 budget which has al-

ready been approved by the Board of Directors which

will take effect on January 1, 2017.

The October meeting is also the time for discussion

about the new Board resolution requiring a 20% deposit

of the purchase price on a property prior to closing on all

future sales of homes in our Plat. This will be voted upon

by the community at the Elections/Annual meeting on De-

cember 27, 2016. There will also be a speaker at the De-

cember meeting about insurance issues.

There is nothing more important than showing support

for your elected Board of Directors, getting news first hand

about how our community is being governed, and where

you can have a say or ask a question directly of the mem-

bers of the Board. So please come to meetings and help

make our community viable and strong.

Talk of the Town by BOB TOWNSEND

SEPTEMBER DILEMMA

September was a particularly difficult month

for my wife, Ronnie, and me.

Why?

I’m really shocked that you had to ask. I thought

it should be obvious. Never forget, September is at

the doorway to October. And you know very well

what happens in October – Halloween happens in

October! Halloween means it’s time for the Delray

Villas’ gala costume party. So there you have the

cause of our dilemma. Ronnie and I have to decide

in September what we’re go-

ing to wear for costumes in

October.

My wife and I made our

first appearance at the Hal-

loween extravaganza two

years ago. We set the bar

pretty high for ourselves be-

cause we won the prize for

most original costume. We

arrived at the party as Sonny

and Cher. I was Cher.

My stepson suggested that I was the ugliest

broad to come down the pike since Countess Marya

Zaleska. Countess Marya Zaleska was Dracula’s

daughter, but you know that, of course.

I was offended. Not because my stepson had

called me ugly and compared me to the evil count-

ess- no shame in that – but because he had callously

referred to me as a broad, showing such little re-

spect for the female gender. It bothered me because,

after all, I’m such a sensitive male.

Ronnie and I spent September of last year worry-

ing and haggling about what we’d wear to the

Grand Festival of Halloween. And we didn’t figure

it out. That is, we didn’t figure it out until late in

October when we decided we should be Daddy

Warbucks and Annie. But, by the time we came to

that grand realization on the Eve of Halloween, we

decided it was too late to get the costumes together

so we skipped the party altogether.

Thoughts of Daddy Warbucks and Annie lin-

gered, so when it came time for the After 6 Club

Thespians to put on

their annual per-

formance, we asked

director, Linda Solo-

mon, if we could

portray the lovable

rich dude and the

vivacious redhead.

You may have

caught us on stage

telling each other just how lucky we were to be

“together at last.” If you want to know the truth,

though, it wasn’t the role of Daddy Warbucks that

was so inviting to me. I was just looking for an ex-

cuse to shave my head.

So now you know the reason this September was

so devastating for the Townsends. Ronnie and I

worried and brainstormed and wrenched our guts to

come up with the perfect disguises for this year’s

party.

I thought I had the perfect solution. I suggested

Ronnie portray Billie Joe McAllister and I would be

the Tallahatchie Bridge.

“Nobody will get it,” Ronnie protested. “Nobody

will know who – or what – we are.”

“Of course, they will,” I countered. “I’ll have a

sign on me that reads, ‘Tallahatchie Bridge’ and

you’ll be carrying a doll.”

(I know you’re very well acquainted with the

song, “Ode to Billie Joe.” In the days before his sui-

cide, Billie Joe McAllister and his young girlfriend

were seen throwing something off the Tallahatchie

Bridge. The conventional wisdom is that it was a

stillborn baby.)

RONNIE: “If you’re going to pick a costume

based on a song, at least pick a song that people

know.”

ME: “Everybody knows the song. ‘Ode to Billie

Joe’ was the greatest song ever written.”

RONNIE: “Nobody knows the song.”

ME: “I want to be a bridge.”

RONNIE: “Pick a song that everybody knows.”

ME: “Okay. We’ll do ‘Bridge Over Troubled

Water.’ I’ll be the

bridge and you, Mrs.

Townsend, will be

troubled water.”

SAFETY

by Carol and Dennis Michalic You should check your credit card statements to

verify accuracy, check your credit history with Equifax

or the other companies.

Do not leave wallets, guns, cameras and other per-

sonal property in unattended autos. Do not fall victim

to “grandparent” scams in which a grandchild or a per-

son purporting to be law enforcement call and tells you

they were arrested or hurt in a foreign country and are

afraid of telling parents but would you send money to

assist, lottery scams, phones calls about past bills (or

taxes) due telling you that unless you pay with money

orders, debit cards, gift cards or giving check account

number you will be arrested. I have mentioned previ-

ously the government agencies WILL ALWAYS send

letters if you are past due.

Distraction theft usually is someone representing

water, electric or pest company come to door saying

they have to check in the house for problems. Water

company responsibility and electric utility responsibil-

ity stops at the building wall. Water company will shut

water off at the meter for past due money and usually if

it is three or more months overdue. Electric utility will

come and lock out meter. If they do shut the utility,

you will have to pay back past monies and probably

add on a surcharge. They don’t have the desire to have

someone to make calls. If you called a pest control

company they usually make appointment for them to

come to your home. They will all have proper ID, if in

doubt tell them to come back and check with company.


Sharon’s Read submitted by SHARON O’HALLORAN


Euphoria by Lily King Euphoria won the 2014 New England Book Award

for Fiction, was a finalist for the National Book Critics

Circle award and on the New York Times best books of

2014.

In 1933 three anthropologists spent time in New

Guinea on the Sepik river doing research on several

tribes up and down the river. Margaret Mead has just

published her ground breaking Growing up in Samoa,

which catapulted her at a young age to stardom in an-

thropological circles and she is there with her husband,

Reo Fortune, also an anthropologist. In the area was an

English anthropologist, Gregory Bateson, who became

Mead’s third. Ms. King reimagined and blended them

into characters in a story of her own devising. It is a tale

of competing egos, hubris and passion in an exotic land-

scape with mysterious tribes who are or have been head

hunters.

In the opening pages Nell Stone and her husband Fen

are fleeing the Mombanyo tribe, known for its practice

of Infanticide and Nell has just miscarried and is con-

vinced that what the tribe flings at them is a dead baby.

She is sick with malaria and her glasses are broken, per-

haps by Fen. They attend a Christmas celebration at an

outpost where they meet Andrew Bankson, an English

anthropologist. Bankson is not in great shape as he has

just unsuccessfully attempted suicide, haunted by the

death of his brother in World War I and the suicide of

his other brother. Bankson has attempted to drown him-

self with stones in his pocket, much like Virginia Wolff.

He is rescued but he does not feel saved. They all em-

brace and Nell comments, “Maybe you noticed - there is

a sort of stench of failure about us.” Bankson agrees to

help them find another tribe on the river to study and

Fen hopes there is ‘a good beach and good art.’ Under-

neath there is the current of envy and jealousy as Fen

remembers an old slight he suffered when he and Bank-

son were younger and further, he now feels eclipsed by

his wife’s new found celebrity as a bestselling author.

Nell and Fen establish residence with the Tam about

7 miles upriver from Bankson. Bankson is enamored

with Nell’s easy rapport with the tribe, her impression-

istic field notes, her poetic curiosity, her freedom. It is

her brain that excites him. On a visit Bankson ends up ill

and spending a week in their bed recuperating. Their

marriage and collaboration is already coming apart as

Fen pursues the illusive ‘flute’ that he feels will bring

him acknowledgement in the anthropological world. He

becomes more separate and distant from Nell, going off

on his own pursuits and it becomes clear that he intends

to steal this tribal totem to propel him up the academic

ladder. These three anthropologists embody very differ-

ent ways of working and bring to light the conflict that

arises when a researcher intrudes on a culture to under-

stand it and that very intrusion can change the culture.

One sleepless night Bankson and Nell and Fen in a col-

laborative frenzy, which is actually a true incident from

Mead’s life, construct a grid that maps the whole of hu-

man culture in all its variations. This was never pub-

lished even though they believed at that time that they

were in the throes of a big theory. It was after that night

that the physical romance between Nell and Bankson

began. In this book desire for love, knowledge or fame

is only fleetingly rewarded.

The title refers to that period that Nell describes

when you have been with a tribe for about eight weeks

and all of a sudden it seems that the culture begins to

make sense. However, this is a delusion and is quickly

followed by despair of ever understanding anything you

have seen. But for that brief moment there is that feel-

ing of euphoria.

The book’s narrator is Bankson who in an unflinch-

ing retrospective recounts his helpless love for Nell.

Interspersed are sections of Nell’s journey. The tone of

the book is visceral with imagery and pungent with the

smell of disease, unwashed bodies and foul breath.

There is a feeling of impending doom when one of the

young men of the village returns from a stint working at

a port and then is found dead. The villagers begin to

look with suspicion on the strangers who have come to

learn their ways. By allowing these strangers, these

white strangers, to live among them have they angered

their gods and brought death to their village? As their

suspicion increases so does the danger that Nell and Fen

face. They need to leave and quickly.

The Publisher’s Weekly review states, “While the

love triangle sections do turn pages (Innuendo! Jeal-

ousy! Betrayal!), King’s immersive prose takes center

stage. The fascinating descriptions of tribal customs and

rituals, paired with snippets of Nell’s journals - as well

as the characters’ insatiable appetites for scientific dis-

covery - all contribute to a thrilling read that, at its end,

does indeed feel like “the briefest, purest euphoria.”

PET OWNERS BEWARE!

WELCOME NEW

NEIGHBORS Alliance Happenings Judy La Corte

Palm Beach County Sheriff Office's Captain

Diberardino, says that crime was down slightly last

month. However, some cars with push button igni-

tions were stolen, due to key fob being left in the

car. This allows entry into the car as well as the

ability to drive the vehicle.

Rick Christmas from Fire/Rescue, made us

aware that carbon monoxide poisoning is becom-

ing more of a problem due to push button ignitions

becoming prevalent on new cars.

Supervisor of Elections, Susan Bucher, told us

that the heavy rain on Election Day kept many

people from voting. Please get out & vote! She

suggested either voting absentee or early for the

November 8 elections.

County Administrator, Verdenia Baker who

answered the two questions, "What is the Penny

Tax?" and "What would it be used for?" Adding a

surcharge of one cent to our present sales tax will

be on the November 8 ballot. This surtax will ap-

ply to the first $5,000 on the sale of personal prop-

erty but not on such items as groceries, baby food

or medicine. It will be used to repair, restore or

replace such items as bridges, roads, pathways,

street lighting, sidewalks, and aging school build-

ings. In parks, such items as playgrounds, courts,

lighting, athletic fields, parking lots and septic

tanks will be addressed. The proceeds will be allo-

cated as follows: Schools 50%, County 30% and

Cities 20%. This one cent surcharge will be for a

ten year period, ending on or before December 31,

2026. It is estimated that tourists will pay approxi-

mately 25% of this tax. Independent Citizen Com-

mittees will audit spending compliance. It is esti-

mated that this one cent surcharge will bring $700

million dollars to our county of which Delray

Beach, Boynton Beach and Boca Raton will re-

ceive almost $133 million.
