Bingo Paul Pontious

We are given Bingo Paul a week or so to come out with the truth as to where all the money is going and Bingo records and after that, the state will be notify. We just don't want Bingo to be stopped and Paul is holding the cards.

Joe Hunter "Do Nothing" has hired a helper

I just don't believe it, Joe needs help in what he his doing, whatever that is. Could anyone help me as to what he does. Now he has a resident at the Monday morning coffee meeting doing what he use to do, welcome the new residents just to give them hell later. Please tell me what he does? The people of Lake Ashton are fools to believe that Joe needs help and this is costing the residents more money while Joe is taken a longer nap than before. Wake up residents, you are all being made a fool.

No birds allow in Lake Ashton

The ARC Committee told a resident to take down his bird house which was on top of a pole and was in his back yard and in no way could anyone see it. It was between Thomas Nursery Rd and the back of his house. No one could see it! He received a letter from the ARC Committee and they told him to take it down. He never reply to the letter. Later on, he received a knock on his door saying take it down or be fine $150.00/day or will get a contractor to take it down. Well, what choice does he have, he call "Do Nothing" Joe Hunter and got no answer to solve his bird problem. He took the Bird house down only to please the ARC committee, the birds were not so happy.

Ed King and Margot Stevens fireside chat

We had a little chat and I ask her if all the stories are true that you own stock in the developer's enterprises. She says that in no way does the developer and her have anything in common and she does not own any shares in his enterprises. She also told me that I should have call her and I would have gotten this story straight. At this stage of the game, I receive my information from a good source, but in no way can I prove it. Therefore this is only here say, not fact.

She also deny calling the police on me because I had a AK47 in my house. Well I guess Mr Mayor Van Sickle was the villon, he and he alone call the cops. His name was on the police report. This I know for fact.

NEWS WANTED send to lakeashtontalk@yahoo.com

Boat dock is on CDD proberty! This is News

Have you heard builders, building a house on someones property other than the owner? Our developer build the boat dock on CDD property, now it belongs to the residents of Lake Ashton. He has a lawyer and we have a lawyer and the results will be made public next Friday Nov 13. This should be very interesting. The boat ramp is also on CDD property. I talked to the resident who discover the goof up and I am sure the developer would like to throw this guy out of here and I know a few other he would like to throw out. It is also understood that there will be no fee for using the boat dock. If you can go bowing or play billiards than why should there be a charge for using the boat dock? Its on our property.

What Happen?

Apparently the new developer did not proceed with the correct guide lines. You just can't come with a quote without following the steps. You must first reply to our developer ad and at that time you submit your quote. If he had done this, it would have been a different story. But than again, Margot Stevens and Jake would have voted no. You can't win either way. Screw the residents of Lake Ashton who are sound asleep and are deaf to everything that is going on.

Lake Ashton got sold out! This is a bomb shell

On June 12th while some of you were away or sleeping, the residents of Lake Ashton were sold out to the tune of a quarter of a million dollars.
It seems that one of our residents owns property in another development here in Poke County. Last March, the Manager of that development told the Lake Ashton resident that he would be interested in bidding on all three current contracts here in Lake Ashton.
The resident told him that there was an open bidding process that required him to prepare and submit bids for the management, landscape maintenance and gate attendant contacts.
Requests for Proposal would be issued by the Lake Ashton CDD sometime in August. The prospective bidder did just that. He obtained copies of all three contracts, as well as last year's RFP's (request for Proposal), showing the scope of work and also visited Lake Ashton on many occasions to see what exactly was involved.
He prepared drafts of his bids and waited for announcement of the RFP's in the newspaper. The aggregate total of his bids was a quarter of a million dollars less than the current contracts now in effect and also provided an elevated level of quality and service.
The announcement never came. This action which can only be describe as fiscally irresponsible, Margot Stevens, Jake Eaton and Scott Owens quickly voted not to issue RFP's to the new contractor and extend all three contracts for another year.
Scott Ownes action was expected. He was appointed by the current contractor and serves as an officer in the Developer's corporation. Why then would your fellow residents Margot and Jake vote to obligate you to an additional $250,000/year in operation and maintenance cost? Margot voting record over the past year reveals thae she has steadfastly voted in support of the current contractor on every single issue. Her husband is employed by the developer and is listed in every single issue of the LA Times.
Jake Eaton along with her husband are heavily invested in the developer's real estate ventures.
They inadvertently fail to disclosed this fact on their financial disclosure statements prior to their election in direct violation of state laws.
Lake Ashton residents, enjoy another year of non responsive services, lousy security, and overpriced flowers, courtesy of Miss Management 2009, Margot Stevens

I'snt this the truth!

THE ECONOMY IS SO BAD, that …

I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail.

I ordered a burger at McDonald's and the kid behind the counter asked, "Can you afford fries with that?"

CEO's are now playing miniature golf.

If the bank returns your check marked "Insufficient Funds," you call them and asked
if they meant you or them.

Hot Wheels and Matchbox stocks are trading higher than GM.

MacDonald's is selling the 1/4 ounce.

Parents in Beverly Hills fired their nannies and learned their children's names.

A truckload of Americans was caught sneaking into Mexico .

Dick Cheney took his stock broker hunting.

Motel Six won't leave the light on anymore.

The Mafia is laying off judges.

Exxon-Mobil laid off 25 Congressmen.

Is Bingo Paul going to spend time in the slammer?

Bingo Paul Pontious, where has the money gone?

Received this notice from a concerned resident.

Report was given today....YOU ARE CORRECT about the BINGO...
It is said there is a $60,000.00 shortage in the fund....
IT is time the HOA looked into an Independent Audit Report made on these funds...

Halloween costumes. You got to laugh at this one.

A black man and his wife were going to a Halloween party in
a couple of days. So the husband tells his wife to go to the
store and get costumes for them to wear.

When he comes home that night he goes into the bedroom and
there laid out on the bed is a Superman costume.

The husband yells at his wife, "What are you doing? Have you
ever heard of a black Superman? Take this back and get me
something else I can wear."

The next day the wife, not too happy, returns the costume
and gets a replacement.

The Husband comes home from work goes to the bedroom, and
there, laid out on the bed, is a Batman costume. He again
yells at his wife, "What are you doing? Have you ever heard
of a black Batman? Take this back and get me something I
can wear to the costume party!"

The next morning his irate wife goes shopping.

When the husband comes home again from work, there laid
out on the bed are three items: one is a set of three white
buttons, the second is a thick white belt, and the third
item is 2 x 4.

The husband yells at the wife, "What the hell are these for?"

The wife yells back, "take your clothes off. You can put the
three white buttons on the front of you and go as a domino.
If you don't like that one, you can put the white belt on
and go as an Oreo. And if you don't like THAT one, you can
stick the 2 x 4 up your ass and go as a fudgesicle!"

Lake Ashton Grill Health Violations is less than nearby restaurants

20% of the restaurants have fail every year because of the guide lines to protect the public from getting sick. The health dept is always on their back at lease 4 times a year or more and they always find something. They have a sharp eye and they don't miss a thing. They have good noses. Let us compare Lake Ashton Grill to Sizzling Grill and Manny's Chophouse for health complaints for the year 2009.

Lake Ashton Grill 35 Health Violations As of Oct 06, 2009

Manny's Chophouse 42 Health Violations as of Oct 15, 2009

Sizzling Grill 51 Health Violations as of Aug 26, 2009

Regardless of the motivation and goals, turning this passion of having a restaurant into a business requires commitment, talent and above all else – knowledge!

Robinson Family Show

What a flop. I just can't believe that this is good entertainment. Where are they getting these shows? I received two free tickets to go and see the show. I saw the first half and left at intermission, so did others. The entertainment series, as far as I can see only has a few good shows. Would I buy a series ticket? NO They wanted me to pay $325 to rent the hall for a charity show. Crazy. I would never put on a show as bad as this one. They would put on any show to get your money. Don't they ever screen them?

Bingo Paul Pontious

The Bingo committee falls under the HOA umbrella's responsibility and yet there is no financial report each month of the Bingo sales 50-50 sales or the snack bar. And shouldn't any of these funds be approved by the board and dispersed by the treasure. The HOA board members are not doing their job. What is going on?

Doesn't anybody here ever tell the truth!

I met the Ashton Grill Executive Chef Miguel Suazo this Nov 2 Monday morning and I ask him about the 30 Health violations he received this year. He said what health violations. I don't believe it. Then I saw Joe Hunter and would you believe he said the same thing. I guess they were all on vacation when this occur.

$2.00 cost for Lake Ashton Tel Directory

Yes, they want $2.00 for the Lake Ashton Tel Directory. Does the Tel company charge you money for their Tel Directory. Where does the $2.00 go? I will give you one guess.

Where is the Lake Ashton money going?

Is your dollars leaving this community and lining the pockets of Mark Schreiber and his cronies? Every time you play golf, eat or drink at either the clubhouse or the Eagles Nest, or attend a paid function at the clubhouse or HFC, not one red cent of your money is being returned or reinvested in the Lake Ashton Community. Ever notice that 50% of the ads on "community owned" channel 96 are either directly or indirectly for food or beverage service. WHY?

What does Jake Eaton Mr & Ms Keith and Margot Stevens have in common?

Answer: They all work for the developer and are heavily invested in the current contractor's real estate ventures. Margot and Keith Steavens was in last month issue of the LA Times for teaching square dancing. Jake Eaton and his wife was in this month's L A Times for going to the Octoberfest. Big deal, so did a lot of others. If you look at all the old issues of the L A Times you will find them all pictured in there from month to month. Yes the developer owns the L A times, Channel 96, and their web site Lake Ashton Living. In other words, he controls all the Media. But he does not control Lakeashtontalk. Yes I have opposing opinions and will speak out and tell the truth, more than I can say for the L A Times. If you can add to this please E-mail to lakeashtontalk@yahoo.com
You have not heard the whole story about Lake Ashton. All the residents are getting screwed. Very hot news is coming and will be posted this week. You won't read this in the L A Times. Please keep in touch. Maybe the Ledger will pick this up. You will all be shocked. I am for all the residents of Lake Ashton and not for the developer. We all been screw enough. Enough is enough.
