State Symbol Suggestions for the Gov.

It's only one crummy penny and can make the difference between having lifeguards or no lifeguards. The single penny usually falls out of my pocket and rolls down under the car seat somewhere so what's the big deal?

If the Old Man of the Mountain were still alive, he would step up to the microphone and say: "Ladies & gentlemen, go ahead and hit me with a new 1% prepared food and lodging, local option tax.....I can take it!"

Furthermore, the Old Man would digress a bit and explain how the Town of Meredith has an annual total spending budget of about 11 1/2 million dollars that gets spent to pay for everything like schools, police, town employees, roads, parks, everything. And how the selectmen have recently decided to cut the summer lifeguard budget from about $22,500 down to $2,500 to save some money.

So, paying that extra penny for any item on the Dollar Menu would help the town with having lifeguards at Lake Waukewan and Leavitt Beach-Winnipesaukee. Something that we can all feel good about!

In closing, the Old Man would say; "Don't be a cheapie, one extra penny is nothing to get all excited about, and the local town option 1% meals tax is definately the way to go!"

If its only a penny it would appear that FLL would be happy for mine as well as your penny also.
