Ther is a special song which is
sung when breaking the pinata.
The pinata On be made in
many different forms like a star,
donkey, bOar or clown.W
The donkey was 'made in •
one week, but there were '6 people •
working on it. This pinata is very
big. A real, pinata is not as big and • -
is made of clay.

Come to think of it, the streets

for me than Main -St:, Seaforth
after these predictions appear.
Anyway, here goes:
Tuckersmith council will meet
permanently at the Van Egmond
House. It's pretty cold in there
and their meetings will be
finished as whole lot sooner that
way. On• the- nights when they
have a really long agenda, Reeve
Erwin Sillery will convene his new
council in meetings outside. ,
Seaforth's new council will
chide the new PUC because .hydro
, rates are too low. The PUC will
retaliate by staging a, four hour
blackout once a month on
council's meeting night.
Former Seaforth councillors
George Hilldebrand, John
Sinnamon and Charlie Campbell
' will kick themselves for , not
running again. They'll miss those
.couple of meetings a week and
especially their iron clad ekuses

Sticking your neck Out once a

fearless editor is it?
I'm also emboldened by the .
fact that I'm .leaving on a holiday
to spend Christmas in New York
with my husband's family, not
long after this column is written. 1
could only wish that I'll be away
for New Years too, but no, I'll be
back by the time this issue hits
the streets.
Yes, we're going to , spend
Christmas in the Big Apple,,
which I understand , some people
have taken to calling the Rotten
Apple recently. The whole White
family, with the exception of
grandma and grandpa in Florida,
are going- to spend Christinas
with Andy's brother who lives in
the land of King. Kong and the
Empire State Building.
