My right eye was still dialated but I decided folks would be more intrigued than terrorized if I knocked on their doors. I cut off half of some clip-on sunglasses and passed out Alanna&#8217;s flyers and lawnsigns. I found four takers in the morning for signs and then joined Alanna in the afternoon and we stuck up another four or five. <\/p>\n<p>Then we ran across someone who made our day. It was a parent who had emailed all the Board members and candidates. It turned out that within minutes of receiving this email Alanna replied. This is something a number of the Board members still have not done nearly three weeks later.<\/p>\n<p>The parent told us that some comments from Board members had left a bad taste, especially from Rosie Loeffler-Kemp. Rosie said she was disappointed with the parent. Then the parent told me that my blog has been a major source of information. I admitted that I&#8217;d written about this parent&#8217;s concerns without taking sides but that proved not to be a problem. At least my blog posts showed some concern without brushing it off.<\/p>\n<p>After this the parent took seven of Alanna&#8217;s lawnsigns to put up around town. Not a bad day&#8217;s work for a pirate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having been confined to my house for the past three days left me raring to go.
