induction ceremonies where women were being honored / inducted. I don't
go to them anymore. Most of those guys are into self-promotion anyway
so the acceptances typically intro with 'I'd like to thank my wife'
followed by a long winded speech recapping their entire self described
'brilliant career'. I'm not sure exactly what qualifications are
required for being included in the UI Hall of Fame but I imagine your
chances improve in a linear fashion based on how much money potential
candidates have donated to the UI. And the biggest spenders might also negotiate forking over an additional $,$$$,$$$ in exchange for an
honorary doctorate degree. Yet another example of
fat white male entitlement I suppose. :(<br><br>-Scott<br><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">CC: v2020@ssl1.fastmail.fm; vision2020@moscow.com<br>From: suehovey@moscow.com<br>Subject: Re: [Vision2020] Barricades in my yard!<br>Date: Sat, 28 Sep 2013 09:20:35 -0700<br>To: scooterd408@hotmail.com<br><br><div>Oh, Scott, that response would make delightful fodder for a panel discussion on female empowerment...Just wondering, how many women were inducted into the Hall of Fame that evening?</div><div><br></div><div>sueh<br><br>Sent from my iPad Sue Hovey</div><div><br>On Sep 27, 2013, at 8:35 PM, Scott Dredge <<a href="mailto:scooterd408@hotmail.com">scooterd408@hotmail.com</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote><div>

The only thing I can figure is that men can actually collaborate and get along with each other and can form a united front and a powerful structure whereas women are vicious and catty to each other so they're left to just fend for themselves.

Another way I’ve heard it phrased is “It’s a rich white man’s problem,” when whining about such important topics as having to drive too far to have a luxury auto serviced, not being able to order Kobe beef at the local restaurant, and no first class seats available for a 90 minute flight.</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D;">Wayne’s public whine-fest about the Mayor not immediately dropping everything to take his call about the barricades placed – or misplaced – on his property by the street department strikes me as a similar kind of thing. Maybe I run in the wrong circles, but I don’t know a single person other than Wayne Price who would expect to have the mayor on the kind of string Wayne thinks he’s entitled to have, especially without having tried a really simple self-help thing like calling the street department FIRST.</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D;">Mind you, my reaction would have been different had Wayne said something like, “Hey – I called the street department two days ago about the barricades on my property but haven’t gotten a response yet, and I’m worried because we’re coming up on a weekend.”</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D;">But, that’s not what happened, is it?</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D;">Rather, anyone with connected brain cells can see that it was just an excuse to advocate for his mayoral candidate – Bill “The Bully” Lambert – while taking a cheap shot at current mayor.
