Let's examine this.
Some famous examples include the Texas
A&M Aggies, who trademarked the term “The Twelfth Man” in 1990 to describe
the home field edge their football team receives from their rabid fans. Record
producer-extraordinaire George Martin -and
a few others - came to be known as “The Fifth Beatle” for their excellent work
with the Fab Four from Liverpool. Some NASA veterans consider the homemade vest-wearing
Flight Director Gene Krantz “The Fourth Apollo Astronaut” on America’s
moon-landing missions. Batgirl worked her way into the “Dynamic Duo” of
Batman and Robin for her daring crime fighting exploits against the likes of
The Joker, The Riddler and The Penguin.
Villa Hills’
residents have provided us an infamous
example. Many locals are now describing malfeasant Mayor Mike Martin’s
personal-and now City-Attorney Toad
V. McMurtry as “The Seventh Villa Hills Councilmember”. Why? Because of Toad’s inappropriate ventures in to matters of
policy. Do you want examples? Toad recently-and
inappropriately-told the council they should borrow some seven-figure sum
of money for street repair. Toad also inappropriately
urged council to approve MARTIN’S NEW
ENERGY TAX at the October untelevised caucus meeting.
Most Villa
Hills’ citizens don’t think Martin’s personal-and now City-Attorney should be straying in to the realm of
policy-making. Nobody voted for Toad. They’re upset enough by the fact that
Martin needs the City Council to re-direct TWENTY-NINE
THOUSAND DOLLARS out of the
taxpayer-funded Public Works budget-that
should be spent on street repair-to pay for the diminutive dictator’s
out-of-control legal expenses. Most inhabitants
of strife-torn Villa Hills are complaining, “Enough is enough!”
A large number of Villa Hills’ residents tell us they no longer believe that Emil Sitka should be considered “The Fourth Stooge”. Despite the fact that Sitka appeared in almost forty films with Larry, Moe and Curly Joe (and sometimes the amazing Shemp), these townies believe their mismanaging Mayor Mike Martin deserves the coveted “Fourth Stooge” designation.
Even with
the election of six new councilmembers and the hiring of two new hired-guns to assist the struggling mayor, this growing number of people know that
things are still spiraling out of control in Villa Hills. No one would be the least
bit surprised if Martin repeatedly smacks himself in the face at the next
Council meeting, stands up, and walks around to the front of the council table,
lays down on his side and begins to do the famous, circular “Curly Walk”.
Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk.
