If you wear a Lily Pulitzer outfit or golf skirt and look well groomed, you can easily sneak into the Dolphin Cove club and sit on the beach there and pretend you are a guest of a resident. You can even sit by the pool too, or at a picnic table, although I wouldn't recommend trying to launch one of the kayaks. And obviously, I don't recommend sneaking in. I am just saying that it can be done.

For example: The City of Stamford has a multimillion dollar account for retired city employees, and a financial advisor dipped his hand into it and lost 15 million dollars over the past year. This must be stopped. Now the City of Stamford is requiring that us taxpayers make up for that 15 million!! It's absurd and irresponsible to raise taxes and recoup these losses. Secondly, Governor Rell should seriously consider shutting down the whole UCONN athletic program to save 50 million dollars over the next 5 years. Instead, the college students can do volunteer work for seniors and earn credits for that work. The money that is saved can be used to bring back police for our streets.

Thanks to you I learned even more about Pine Creek. Thanks for creating this documentary "Breaking The Sound Barrier". By the way, those shirts you wore on the walk, you should sell them on the website or in the paper..keep up the excellent work, and thanks for the powerbar and sunscreen. And, it sounds like you didn't get arrested trespassing on your way to Westport..
