Politics? Nice...

Though I would have sacked the council, and made sure each was in jail. :twisted:

We didn't get them into serious legal trouble, but we're working on a lawsuit.
Also, they're trying to fire our CEO, who is the cause of this mess.
It's been an unnecessarily tense conflict, but I've learned a lot about the law through it.

Sounds like a good mess... :eyebrow:

Again, sacking council, and taking people to the gulag is faster.

Actually, camping was one of the things that made me want to join in the first place. The area between Baton Rouge, LA and Biloxi, MS is really good for camping. Especially in the fall/winter when the temperature is mild.

Ah.

Good on them. Camping is one of those things that all scouts should participate in.
