I didn\u2019t want to have all of them to have to worry about a bunch of reply alls, so I simply didn\u2019t send the email.\u201d\nThe troubles didn\u2019t end there.  \u201cI used to have a simple Nokia phone,\u201d said Closson.  \u201cBut now I have this fancy Samsung phone.  I guess they call them smart phones.  Anyway, it\u2019s the darndest thing, but I am having the hardest time simply making a phone call.   I think I have it all figured out now, but it is just a little late.\u201d\nResidents in the community are a little disappointed in the selection process.  \u201cIn the end, it probably doesn\u2019t make a difference,\u201d said only somewhat concerned parent Bob Lilly.  \u201cIt would have been nice to have been involved, but in the end, it\u2019s elementary school.  My kids will coast through junior high simply on the genetics of my good looks.\u201d  The board has assured the community they will be more cooperative in the future.  \u201cWe are prepared to bend over (backwards) for people like Bob Lilly,\u201d said Closson.  \u201cWe will do whatever it takes to gain back the community\u2019s trust.\u201d]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[118],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-3785","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-59","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3785","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3785"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3785\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3785"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3785"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3785"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
