Its a pl ace for children to play on swings and lides. a place for families to have picnic~ or for couple~ to take leisurely $Lrolb through the grt'cncry. So the idea that it had become a new plac(' to feed the hom eless on weekend~ naturaJJy touched a nl'rve \.\ilh -.ome We-.t~ide «.><;idem:,. who alreadv have their h ir sharl' of charitable relief organi1.<111ons ac; neighbors. And Wl' have to ay. we agree with thoc,l' Westside~ who complmm-d that the homeless were dl'ft·rating and leaving tra-,h and dru~ paraphernalia in I.he· park. It'~ not 1hm we don't commend Beny Abbott and.Jerry J.ace for the worl-. they did to fix~d th~ 1~., fortunate. We do. They insist that they cleanro up after their gathering!., and we beli1·ve them. And we al!>o don't want to pretend that the homeless don't belong in a park. Of course. they have every righ1 to be there like anyone ebe. '. But the promotion of a food giveaway will bring a much larger ~umber. and we just believe a public park i~ U1e wrong place for that worthy cause. City official!. agreed and clamped down on the members of the singles ministry for feeding homeless in the park without a permit. Luckily, though, Pastor Dale Fitch of the Lighthouse Omrch came to the rescue. c.au it divine inspiration, bu1 Fitch just happened to be looking for a way to help the cornmunjty when he was approached by Abbott, who told him of her plight at Lions Parle and the need for a new home for I.he ministry. The church leader quickly agreed to allow the homeless to congregate at his church for the free meals. and now everyone is happy -including us. We don't mean to ul>e this as a b ully puJpit, but let th.is be a lesson to those eager to help the needy that their desire to do that can't interfere with the basic rights of the public to enjoy simple pleasures such as going to the park. ihe Westside is deep in the throes of change. Clarities and organizations that feed che homeless have come under fire by Westside activists. who believe they are magnet!> for vagrants and illegal inunigrants. There's no need to fuel that fire by urging homeless to congregate in city parks or any other place where the public gathers at large. Cox keeps Newport in dredging projects R cp. Chris Cox may have helped sink plan'> fo r an airpon at the former El 1oro Marim• Corps Air Station -though. to he fair. he did help ink the John Wayne Airport Sclllt•ment Agreement extension -but he\ made <;Ure that Newport Beach boater~ ~ave no problem~ navigating the tity\ waterways. I leck, call him Mr. Dredging. Cox. like in past year•,, continues 'o find fede ral funding for .iredging project<; in Newpon Beach. The latest. roughly $2 million, will dredge waterway~ in Newport Harbor and dredge to twlp restore the ecology of 1hc ~ack Bay. Cox also secured another SI million toward a cover for the Big Canyon Heservoir. Cox's dredging effort~ have been noticed -so noticed that ~ader of Ncwpon lkach. ac; well as of the county, toasted the 14-year congressman last month against a Back Bay backdrop. It wa_., there that he aid. "1 his t .... in fall, a t•elebration of the t return of a significant portion of our tax doll ars back hom e. We have been more successful in the pa5t year obtaining federal fu nding for Newpon Beach than in all my years in Congress." And that has been Cox's 'ltrength in Congress: helping return Newport Beach taxes to Newport fo r mostJy dredging projects. · In October 2000. the congressman helped ferry legislation through the House that wiJI give the city $21 million over the next two decades to consiMently remove sediment from the bay. What \...ox's efforts do is alleviate at least one wony from the minds of city officials. Instead of searching for money for dredging projects, Cox constantly sends through legislation with a million here iind a million there. · Cox has become the go-to guy when it comes to water-related projects in Newport Beach and, for that, he should constantly be applauded.

It's not my fault I eat a big old juicy steak and a baked potato with all the trimmings or go to McDonald's and eat Loo much. h's not my fault I drink wine with all those empty calories. Or a fattening dessert from time to time-I'm f'at. and it's not rny fault It's the fault of my parents. each and every restaurant, and the federal government So I'm going to gel a good lawyer and sue everybody. I don't care if my parents are no longer around, I'm going to sue Lhem. 1bere used to be a Tu.stee Freeze near McFaddens Wharf, and I'm going to find out who the owner was and I'm going to sue him because I used to eat burgers there. Who invented Prencb fries'? I don't know, but a good attorney can find out and we can sue them. How about the co·coo.splrators. like the suppliers? And the people who served me alJ that food that made me f'at7 Sue them all. The police department that is here Paul James Baldwln to serve and protect us we didn't protect me from those fast food places that deceived and coerced me to overeat. I'll sue them Loo. The federal government mouldbave forced restaurants towam customers that overeating could cause obesity. This ls a good basis for a class action suit Time to sue. I'm going to sue all the supennarkets, too. They sell aU these food products that are fattening. even unhealthy. I'm fat, and it's not my fault It's theirs. I'm fat. and its not my fault. But if you call me fat.111 sue you, too, for defamation ol character. Isn't there a law against oot being politically correct? l see no reason why I should be manipulated into accepting responsibility for myself or any or my actions. I should have been warned about J}le life-lbreatening effects of too many calories. the death that can come to those who eat fried and fany foods. Those warning.., should have been printed on every menu, and without those warnings. I was unaware and uninformed. I have been deceived by a great conspiracy · that forc-ed me to eat too mu b and not to eat healthy enough. ll's not my fault It's your fault I'm fat. and I'm going to sue you. You didn't speak up when you were sitting next to me when I was eating lobsier with drawn buttl"r and you were eating thal salad. You weren't there when I went to that fa.<>t food place to warn me that I shouldn't eat the hamburger. fish or chicJcen sandwiches. You d.Jdn't stop me from eating the F.-ench fries or trying the cam>t cake. It's your fault. · and I'm going to sue you. If you don't agree with me or like what I say, don~ talk to me.
