I see that Pennbrook is suing the Bend Trap Club because the property that they bought to develop is costing a bunch to clean up.
STUPID FUCKERS!You buy some land that's been a trap shooting site for 75 fucking years and now it's contaminated. Ever hear of lead poisoning? Ever wonder why parents get so pissed off when they find little junior out back, chewing on some paint chips or some Chinese toy? Ever wonder why they won't hardly let you shoot a duck or pheasant anymore with anything other than steel shot?
Then someone tells you that they can clean it up for X dollars, and low and behold...it costs them X plus a whole lot more to actually do it.
This wouldn't happen to have anything to do with the fact that you may be losing your shirt on some of your other little deals, would it? Just how many high density houses were you going to put on that 40 acre lead pile anyway? Hows 200 sound?
Oh, by the way, I've got a little piece of land out east of Bend that I think you might be interested in. It's been used to bury a few little odds and ends over the years, but I think for a small fee, it will clean up real nice. I'll make you a heck of a deal on it.
It's got a beautiful fence, all the way around it. And it's exclusive, just like Broken Top. It's got a big fancy security gate that will keep all of the riffraff out. Also, the wildlife abounds. Birds and critters everywhere.
I even have a few suggestions for some names of the future development that you might put out there. Hows about Knott's Landing? Or even better, you could give it one of those trendy, one word names, like they do in San Francisco (The Mission) or Portland (The Pearl). You could simply call it, The Fill.
