Fishers council hears about proposed armed services commission; recognizes police officers By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com The Fishers City Council met for the last time in 2021 on Dec. 20. Agenda items included recognizing two Fishers Police Dept. officers for 25 years of service, hearing a proposal for an armed services commission and hearing an introduction for new planned unit development in southeastern Fishers. For more, visit fishers.in.us. What happened: Deputy Mayor and U.S. Navy Cmdr. Elliott Hultgren introduced a proposal to establish an armed services commission. What it means: Hultgren commended the city’s efforts to recognize veterans, but he said an armed services commission would also provide resources for those serving and those aspiring to serve. Council President Selina Stoller asked Hultgren if he would be reaching out to the business community to see if it could support the initiative. Hultgren said one of the 11 appointees on the commission would be a nominee from the OneZone Chamber of Commerce. Stoller also requested the commission look into providing a gym where service members home on leave could work out for two to three weeks at a time. “My son comes home for three or four weeks of leave a couple times a year, and he is required to keep himself very well physically fit,” Stoller said. “I don’t have the type of gym that he needs. One of the needs I can see is needed is they need a gym that will give them two to three weeks’ membership at a time in order to help him maintain the physical stamina he needs.” Hultgren said that was an excellent example of a program the commission could help implement. Because it was only an introduction, a vote wasn’t taken. What happened: The council unanimously approved two financial items — one for a short-term loan financing the 2022 fleet, primarily for police cars, and one for an additional appropriation of stormwater funds. What it means: City Controller Lisa Bradford presented the items. The stormwater fund appropriation moved $20,000 from the stormwater fund account to the city’s municipal budget. The projected stormwater revenue and matching expenditures for 2022 is $4.5 million, and Bradford said there is nearly $4.7 million in the fund. “So, we are $200,000 in the good, if not over that,” Bradford said. “There’s sufficient funds.”
What happened: The council heard an introduction to a planned unit development to be called Courtyards of Fishers. What it means: If approved, the development would allow for the construction of 50 single-family homes on 22.7 acres northwest of Southeastern Parkway and 113th Street. Proposed pricing would be from $425,000 to $650,000. The homes would be designed for ages 55 and older. A vote wasn’t taken. A concept plan for the proposed Courtyards of Fishers. (Courtesy of City of Fishers)
What happened: The council unanimously approved a policy allowing council members to participate in council meetings virtually. What it means: City attorney Chris Greisl presented the policy. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, local governing bodies weren’t permitted to participate in meetings remotely. However, after Gov. Eric Holcomb issued an executive order allowing such participation during the pandemic, the General Assembly passed a law that allows local public agencies to establish a policy so members can participate electronically. If the council is meeting during normal times, such as not during a pandemic, at least 50 percent of the council must be present in person. Any council members participating remotely must be seen and heard, such as through a video call. Councilors are not permitted to electronically attend more than two consecutive meetings without attending one in person. During emergency times, all council members can participate electronically. What happened: The council took a moment to recognize Ray Saksons, a former town council member who recently died. What it means: Saksons was elected to the Fishers Town Council for two terms, and he also served on the Fishers Plan Commission for eight years. He helped launch the Fishers Youth Soccer Program and was awarded a key to the town in 1998. What happened: Police Chief Ed Gebhart recognized two officers for their service. What it means: Sgt. Angela Ellison and Sgt. Matthew Simmonds were recognized for 25 years of service to the FPD.

Duke grants $80,000 to county for paramedicine program By Chris Bavender news@currentinfishers.com Duke Energy Foundation has awarded Hamilton County an $80,000 grant to help paramedicine programs DONATION provide better behavioral health services in the county. The grant will be used by paramedicine programs in Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville and Westfield for prevention, early identification and intervention, crisis intervention and short- and long-term treatment programs throughout the county. “It’s extremely important, because instead of waiting until there is a crisis situation to help people, we can try to identify their needs at the earliest possible stage,” Hamilton County Councilor and retired Hamilton County Judge Steven Nation said. “We are trying to analyze this from a global sense and say, ‘How do you deal with this instead of saying the best option is to lock someone away and not provide a pathway to help?’” Nation collaborated with local lawmakers to help craft Indiana House Enrolled Act 1118, which became law July 1. The law allows paramedicine programs to request a patient’s individualized mental health safety plan, if certain conditions are met, so they can follow up with the patient and offer
services and support they need to get back on their feet. Community Relations Manager for Duke Energy Mark LaBarr said it’s important to the company to support the work of organizations helping residents with behavioral health challenges. “We believe in giving people another chance, and sometimes they can end up on the wrong path, but with proper help and treatment they can get back on the path to being productive,” LaBarr said. “Let’s say you have someone who is an addict and has gotten into trouble and police show up at the door. But this time it’s different because there is a paramedic there as well and, instead of going to jail, they can get that person the treatment they need right now.” It’s hoped the program could eventually be employed statewide, Nation said. “We want to develop procedures and protocols so smaller departments in the state can use them and not go through the expense and time to develop that kind of system,” he said. “It could provide a framework for the state to have guidelines on what they can do to help train and help further the discussion. You have to figure out the needs and where the gaps are and what you can do to fill those gaps, and that is what this software will help us do.”

Runner Mathison overcomes frustrations for a solid finish By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel High School junior Kole Mathison concluded his frustrating cross country season on a strong note. “To be honest, I didn’t feel like I was in peak shape,” Mathison said. “I had been struggling with sickness and injury all season and never got consistent training. But I didn’t let that affect my mentality going into the big races. I was going to give it my best, and no matter what that meant when I crossed the finish line, I was going to be content.” Mathison placed fifth at the Dec. 11 Eastbay (formerly Foot Locker) Cross Country Nationals in San Diego. He was the top junior in the race, finishing in 15 minutes, 22.3 seconds. He was eighth Nov. 27 in the Eastbay Midwest Region Championships in Kenosha, Wis. He had set the Indiana high school 5,000-meter record with a ninthplace finish in the RunningLane nationals Dec. 4 in 14:23.2 in Huntsville, Ala. “When he’s healthy and able to train, there are not a whole lot of people in the country like him,” Carmel boys cross coun-

Mathison finished fourth in the Oct. 30 IHSAA state cross country meet in 15:37.2 in muddy conditions in Terre Haute. He had just taken the lead when he fell around the
2-mile mark. “That really cost him,” Altevogt said. “He just got cut up. Someone kicked him in the head accidentally. He said he made some tactical mistakes because he fell.” Although it only took him two to three seconds to get up, Altevogt said Mathison believed he tried to catch up too quickly. Mathison was third in the state cross country meet as a sophomore and 11th as a freshman. “We’re looking forward to the track and field season to see what he can do when fully healthy,” Altevogt said. In the boys state track and field meet in June at Ben Davis High School, Mathison finished second in the 3,200-meter run and second in the 3,200 relay. “I started running in the fourth grade but didn’t really get into it until sixth grade,” Mathison said. “I’m passionate about running because it’s the gift God gave me, and I want to use it to glorify him.” Mathison said he likes the 5,000- and 3,200-meter races equally. Mathison hasn’t received any college offers yet, but several college coaches have been in contact.

Lawrence mayor outlines projects on immediate horizon By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com The City of Lawrence will see its landscape start to change in 2022. Much of the new development will focus in the Lawrence Trades District near Pendleton Pike and Franklin Road and the downtown area at 56th Street and Lee Road.
TRADES DISTRICT Freije Engineered Solutions broke ground on its new headquarters in the Trades District in May 2021. It is expected to open next month. “They’re the anchor for our Trades District,” Lawrence Mayor Steve Collier said. A Bank of America and a RaceTrac gas station, which are popular in the South, also will open next year. “It’s a mega gas station. Think of it like a Thornton’s on steroids,” Collier said. “It has its own restaurant and 40 pumps. It’s designed to service both semis and regular passenger cars.”

summer.” Lee Road Park has one full-sized baseball diamond and one full-sized softball diamond. Community Park hosts soccer tournaments.
EVENTS
THE FORT Development near decommissioned Fort Benjamin Harrison also will be heavy in 2022 as the city works to increase businesses and walkability. A Hilton Tru Hotel will open in February or March. The boutique hotel will have 80 rooms. Construction began on the hotel in January 2021, and Collier said the pandemic slowed construction. “They were using a lot of lumbar,” Collier said. “(The hotel) is especially important to that area because of what’s coming.” Collier said each year, FC Pride Soccer Club conducts two tournaments with 1,200plus teams per tournament. “There aren’t a lot of places to stay, and the Tru Hotel will provide 80 rooms, if needed, for the soccer parents to stay,” Collier said. “It’s not nearly enough, but it will provide an area for them.” In the same area, construction of a Starbucks and an Indianapolis Public Library branch will break ground in January and February, respectively. Both buildings will be at the intersection of 56th Street and Lee Road. Starbucks is expected to open by the end of 2022, and the library is expected

to open in the spring or summer of 2023. Lawrence also will welcome more tech companies in the Fort Benjamin Harrison area in 2022. “We will break ground on Sondhi Solutions, a tech firm,” Collier said. “That will be just north of Starbucks.” Sondhi Solutions provides IT services to municipal entities like the City of Lawrence, the City of Noblesville and the City of Fishers, among other municipalities. “We are proud to say we were among (the company’s) first city clients, and (it is) now in six or seven cities in central Indiana,” Collier said. Sondhi Solutions offices are in downtown Indianapolis, but it will move operations to Lawrence when its new building is complete.
RECREATION The City of Lawrence will complete construction for eight pickleball courts at Lee Road Park in the spring. “The asphalt has been laid, and we are going to wait until the weather gets better before we do the painting,” Collier said. “We are pretty sure we can expand this from eight to 16 courts. The interest out there is amazing.” The pickleball courts are east of the concession stand at the park. “We have repurposed Lee Road Park away from baseball and into more of an adult recreation area,” Collier said. “We put in disc golf, and a fitness trail will be in by this
The City of Lawrence will again present some of its most popular events, such as the Fourth of July celebration, Community Safety Day, Lagers in Lawrence and A Lawrence Christmas. It also will introduce a new event, a Cinco de Mayo celebration. In addition, the Tour Lawrence initiative, which offers rentable bikes in the downtown Lawrence area, will reopen in the spring. “July Fourth will be pretty cool this year,” Collier said. “We have an even bigger fireworks display than what we had last year.” An amusement park also will be set up for the festivities. Lawrence’s Community Safety Day also continues to grow. “We had an all-time high number of participants this year,” Collier said. “We continue to have our signature event — a chicken wing-eating contest between the police and fire departments. In addition, there are all kinds of displays. It’s become a very popular family event.” ON THE COVER: A rendering of the Lawrence Trades District, top, which will launch with the opening of Freije in January.

ESSAY
HUMOR
Cashing in too soon?
Not a nutty fruitcake declaration
Commentary by Terry Anker For most of us working stiffs, the space between Christmas and New Year’s Day gives a bit of respite. Many companies slow down. Some even pay for a few days at home. And schools, some government offices and others lock up for the entire week or more. We settle in, sleep later, eat extra and, if we are lucky, think less about our many toils. We find ourselves reconnecting with loved ones and dedicating the afternoon to watching every episode of “I Love Lucy” on TV Land. Still, there are scores of others not quite so lucky. Public safety, health care and retail see no break. In many cases, they are busier during the holidays than otherwise. The more lax days are lost to these good folks. Most take it all in good stride, having come to understand the cycle of the business and accept that days off will come later. Today, the United States is experiencing its largest-ever intentional withdrawal of experienced humans from the workforce. Bolstered by strong markets and fleeing from a litany of modern workplace concerns, many — barely past middle-age — are staying home for good. But with life expectancies for many continuing to rise, how long can we expect to enjoy permanent Christmas break? Is 20 years too long? Thirty or 35? There is no allegation of sloth here. No doubt many will find much to occupy the days. But what drives the decision? Have we become so fatigued day in and day out that we’ll do anything to stop being re-tired – including retiring? Once we’ve slept in, binge-watched TV and visited relatives, do we reconnect with something that looks like a work cadence or simply embrace the unincumbered lifestyle? Will our savings last? Will boredom overwhelm? Someday, it will be fun to find out.

I’ll admit, I often succumb to the seductive literary lure of hyperbole. But not today, folks. Today, I write with absolute truth and no exaggeration whatsoever. Are you ready? Holiday fruitcake is the best freaking dessert on the planet. Fight me. And stop rolling your eyes. You’ve probably just not had the right sort of fruitcake. My dad was from North Yorkshire, and his mother had a recipe that was who knows how old. Now, my mom continues this grand British tradition of boozy deliciousness. She prepares the cakes each Thanksgiving, combining candied cherries, pineapples and orange and lemon peels with black and golden currants and something called treacle (which I think is like a blond molasses that tastes way better). After baking, she’ll soak the dense loaves in Kentucky bourbon for one month, cover them in marzipan and royal icing, and then deliver unto me a gateau that has been born out of love and liquor. And when I say “me,” I mean “me.” Since my father passed away, there remain only two of us in the entire family of 28 who eat it. Not surprisingly, I suppose, my partner in culinary appreciation is my English brother-in-law, so basically, he and I each get a 10-pound, 80-proof confectionary goliath, sure to cause hyperglycemia and the occasional hangover. I love it. Like an Advent calendar treat, I celebrate the Christmas season with a little chunk of this heavenly creation each night before bed, and sometimes in the morning for breakfast and twice now for my entire dinner. No hyperbole here. Fruitcake is the greatest dessert ever. Peace out.

Riverview Health nurse’s care earns honor By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Riverview Health registered nurse Sara Blalock didn’t know what to expect when she was asked to atACHIEVEMENT tend a recent meeting. She assumed she was going to receive a pin for being nominated for a DAISY Award. But she was surprised to learn she was the DAISY Award recipient for the quarter.
The DAISY Award honors nurses who go above and beyond in their line of work. They can be nominated by anyone who recognizes their dedication and hard work. An internal committee that includes the chief nursing officer and other members of the leadership team choose a winner among all the submissions. A Noblesville resident, Blalock was nominated by a former patient who only spent a few days in her care but was impacted by her kindness and compassion. “It was a huge honor,” Blalock said. “I
especially loved the letter the patient sent. It was very heartfelt. That night I remembered which patient it was. She told me she appreciated my help. It was nice standing in the foyer of the hospital with the director of nursing and the CEO and they are reading this letter out loud with the patient saying how I made them feel so much be better. She said the next time a doctor saw her, they said she looked like a completely different patient. She attributed it to the care she received while she was at Riverview.
“She said nurses like me helped her through it. Feedback like that from patients make it all worth it.” Blalock, who is part of the medical/surgical team, has been a registered nurse since 2015. “It’s wonderful to walk into a patient’s room and make them smile when they are not feeling good,” Blalock said. Prior to becoming a registered nurse, Blalock was a certified nursing assistant.

Books & Brews closes at mall By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Books & Brews–Noblesville closed its doors for good Dec. 18. The family friendly brewHAMILTON TOWN CENTER ery and restaurant was leasing space in Hamilton Town Center at 13230 Harrell Parkway, Suite 100. Co-owner Jordan Fox said despite all the COVID-19 restrictions in 2020, the business only averaged 60 to 70 percent of its 2020 sales in 2021. “Just that huge cut in revenue and people still not coming out full force and rent being the same at the mall, unfortunately we can’t keep the business running anymore,” Fox said. “We don’t have enough to keep the lights on.” Fox and her husband Stephen live in McCordsville. They opened the franchise in May 2019. Stephen never left his job as a construction project manager, so he is still employed. Fox was recently hired as a customer care specialist and event coordinator at a realty office. “I’m taking a brand-new road in life,” she

Mug Club is a membership opportunity at certain Books & Brews locations. Fox said she and Stephen also are friends with the owner of the Brownsburg and Zionsville locations and the owner of the southside Indianapolis location. “We will absolutely still be frequenting those locations to give our support to them,” Fox said. Fox said she and her husband don’t have plans for future restaurants or breweries, but she appreciates all the regular customers and organizations within the Noblesville and Fishers communities that supported the business. “We had over 300 Mug Club members, and only being open two years, that’s a pretty great accomplishment,” Fox said. “We had a strong relationship with the OneZone Chamber of Commerce and with Noblesville Chamber of Commerce and with Hamilton Southeastern Schools. Everyone in the community has been so supportive. Good things have to come to an end sometimes.”

Actor eager to reprise role of salon owner in ‘Shear Madness’ at Beef & Boards By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com When Daniel Klingler was presented the chance to reprise his role of Tony Whitcomb in “Shear Madness” THEATER at Beef & Boards Dinner Theater, he embraced the opportunity. Klingler appeared in the 2017 show of the “whodunit” play with audience participation to determine the killer in the murder mystery. The play runs from Dec. 28 to Feb. 5, 2022, at the Indianapolis theater. “‘Shear Madness’ is, by far, the most fun I have had in a production,” Klingler said. “It is non-stop madcap comedy where the audience gets to be involved in interrogating the suspects and ultimately voting on the murderer. Every performance is different from the one before, which, as an actor, keeps you on your toes. I think that’s why all of the original actors returned. We have so much fun, work extremely well together and trust one another. ‘Shear Madness’ is one of the only shows I felt I could perform for a long time without getting bored.” Klingler said he loves the role of Whitcomb, the salon owner. “Tony has a strong sense of humor, is vivacious and sassy,” Klingler said. “He is one of my most favorite characters to portray. To bring him alive in the roller coaster that is ‘Shear Madness’ is thrilling.” The setting for the murder mystery is wherever the show is being presented. “We open the play up to the audience, requiring us to be on our feet at all times,” Klingler said. “Therefore, the nature of the production needs to appear organic and improvisational. I am blessed to be working alongside these dynamic actors. The last time I performed this piece I felt extremely secure because of the level of talent among our cast.” Following the conclusion of “Shear Madness” in late January 2017, Klingler moved from Indianapolis to New York. He joined the hair/makeup union for TV, film and live

entertainment. He worked in the hair and makeup departments for the Broadway shows “Frozen,” “Mean Girls” and “Aladdin.” In addition, he worked with the hair teams for several TV productions, including “The Blacklist,” “The Sinner,” “Pose” and “Elementary.” “People may be surprised to learn one of my favorite gigs was selling wigs on QVC for HairUWear,” he said. “I loved watching The Home Shopping Channel and QVC when I was little, so you can imagine how ecstatic I was when they asked me to work with them.” Klingler worked on “Aladdin” on Broadway for three years in the hair/makeup department. “The cast and crew are some of the nicest people I have worked with in the theater,” he said. “I remember the first time I did the makeup for the Genie. His makeup transformation is about 10 minutes into the show and is a very quick transformation. We could not practice on the actual actor beforehand, so you had to learn in real time. The first time I applied his makeup was surreal. I thought to myself, “I’m applying the makeup on a Broadway star in a hit Broadway show. How did I get here?’
“Suffice it to say, I feel very blessed to have the opportunities I have had.” Klingler was working on Broadway when the COVID-19 pandemic hit. “In fact, we were prepping wigs for ‘Aladdin’ when the company manager announced we would need to pack up our things and leave for the unforeseeable future,” he said. “As the pandemic stretched on, I discussed with my husband if we wanted to stay in NYC. It was a difficult choice, but we made the decision to move to Dallas for my husband’s job. Since moving to Texas, I have been working on two TV Series, ‘1883,’ a sequel to ‘Yellowstone’ for Paramount, and (it) stars Faith Hill, Tim McGraw and Sam Elliott, and the series ‘Love and Death,’ starring Elizabeth Olsen, for HBOMax.” Klingler played Edna Turnblad in Beef & Board’s 2019 production of “Hairspray.” Klingler grew up in Columbus, Ind., and graduated from Columbus East High School. “If anyone has been to Columbus, you will know it is a vibrant arts community,” he said. “I began performing when I was very young and cut my teeth with the MillRace Theatre Company.” For more, visit beefandboards.com.

Van Gogh exhibit proves inspiring Commentary by Randy Sorrell Raise your hand if you have been to an immersive Van Gogh art experience? Me, too! In fact, we’ve been VIEWPOINT to the Newfields exhibit and another in Chicago. Newfields was far superior and packed with inspiring learning opportunities, hands-on displays and a period-sensitive lounge with incredibly yummy, flower-infused cocktails. ART OR ENTERTAINMENT? Apparently, many art purists believe that these Van Gogh exhibitions are mere pop culture entertainment and not actually art. Hmm. What’s your thought? Vincent Van Gogh, the post-Impressionist painter in the late 1800s, is famous for his impasto painting style where expressively thick layers of paint are applied to the canvas, allowing brush strokes to be blatantly evident. This style creates texture, movement, accentuates light and is easy to imagine him actually applying. If you are an art enthusiast or have been to one of Carmel’s International Art Festivals, local artist Randall Scott Harden is a familiar name. His frequent impasto style is
NIGHT CURE
“Impressionism, bordering on abstract”, as he describes it, full of color and thick, juicy paint layers ... predominantly oil and acrylic. As with many of us, he was a fan of Bob Ross and has been painting since he was 10. Harden, a Noblesville resident whose paintings can be found at Art on Main, is famous for his willingness to share techniques and offers crazy fantastic and approachable classes a few times a week in Carmel. This wildly cool dude has been to Paris several times and just returned from California, where he grows his already gifted plein air painting chops (rapidly painting outdoors to capture the changing light and colors). Back to the Van Gogh Art experience. Art or entertainment? Or does it even matter? Millions are discussing Vincent and art. And you get a small taste of his style from our artist, Randall Scott Harden.

Blueprint for Improvement: Indianapolis home addition adds space Commentary by Larry Greene
After
Built in 1926, the owners of this Butler-Tarkington home wanted to create more space for their family. A bedroom addition was the perfect solution! THE BLUEPRINT • The goal was to create more space with an addition that blended seamlessly into the existing architecture. • The layout of the second floor was reworked, moving a secondary bedroom, and opening up the existing space for a larger laundry room and master closet. • A cozy covered porch was created below the second story addition and features beautiful composite decking and aluminum railings. • A new concrete patio completed the transformation.

A weasel by any other word Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt
An “art walk” in San Jose del Cabo. (Photos by Don Knebel)
A visit to San José del Cabo Commentary by Don Knebel This is the first of two columns about Los Cabos, a region at the southern tip of Baja California Sur, Mexico, TRAVEL anchored by two very different cities. Today, we will visit San José del Cabo. Next week, we will visit Cabo San Lucas and the surrounding areas. When Spanish explorers discovered the cabo (cape) of the Baja California Peninsula, the area was inhabited by aboriginal Pericúes. In 1730, Spanish Jesuits established a mission in Añuití, a Pericú settlement near the Gulf of California. Four years later, the Pericúes revolted, killing the mission priest and destroying the church. A new church was built further inland and San José del Cabo developed around it. In 1847, during the Mexican-American War, American forces occupied the church, and José Antonio Mijares was killed leading Mexican forces in an unsuccessful attempt to dislodge the Americans. Today, Bulevar Antonio Mijares, San José del Cabo’s main street, leads past Mijares’ statue to Plaza Mijares, the central square. The Misión San José del Cabo church on the west side of the square replaces the mission church destroyed by an earthquake in 1918. The front of the church graphically depicts the killing of the mission’s priest in 1734. Today, San José del Cabo, a modern city with a population of about 140,000, retains Cellco Partnership and its controlled affiliates doing business as Verizon Wireless (Verizon Wireless) proposes to install a pole communications structure with an overall height of 36 feet at the approx. vicinity of Stratford Way and Franklin Court, Fishers, Hamilton County, IN 46038, Lat: 39-57-3.06, Long: -86-3-20.34.

much of its historic charm. Fine restaurants and shops selling handmade items line Bulevar Antonio Mijares. Each Thursday evening from November to May, local artists display their works during “art walks” on Plaza Mijares, which is automobile-free. Of course, some of the shops sell items made in China, and pharmacies advertise “smart pills” and “Viagra” that lasts all day, available without a prescription. If you visit the Los Cabos area, do yourself a favor and spend some time wandering around San José del Cabo. You will be glad you did.

Weasels seemed as though they’d be a daily occurrence in my adult life. Pop goes the weasel. You GRAMMAR GUY dirty weasel. However, I have never seen a weasel. One type of weasel thing we need to know about is the idea of a “weasel word.” A weasel word (or weaselism) modifies a statement by lessening its impact — almost to the point of not meaning anything. It’s the insertion of words to make a statement vague. Think of a politician’s answer to a question. He doesn’t want to come down on either side of the topic, yet he wants his voter base to feel like he’s said something coherent. Last February, former President Trump said (of coronavirus), “You know, a lot of people think that goes away in April with the heat — as the heat comes in. Typically, that will go away in April.” In this example, the phrase “a lot of people” doesn’t hold any weight. Similar weasel words include “many,” “virtually” and “most.” OK, now before you think I’m going to beat up on only one politician, let’s take a look at President Biden’s campaign called “Build Back Better.” As a language person, CITY OF FISHERS CITY COUNCIL NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING CASE ANX-21-14 MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC MAY SUBMIT COMMENTS BY GOING TO: https://townoffishers. formstack.com/forms/public_meeting_comment_ form MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC MAY STREAM THE LIVE MEETING BY GOING TO: http://tinyurl. com/CityOfFishers NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a public hearing will be held by the City of Fishers City Council at 7:00 PM on Tuesday, January 18, 2022, in the Fishers City Hall building, One Municipal Drive, Fishers, Indiana.

I appreciate the alliteration. However — build back better than what? A sandcastle? A pillow fort? Words that do not say “how much,” including “better,” “gains” or “improved,” are weasel words that let people off the hook because the promises are vague instead of specific. “Weasel word” has its roots in the early 20th century. While Teddy Roosevelt popularized the term in a 1916 speech, he didn’t coin it as he claimed to have done. We first see “weasel word” in a 1900 story in The Century Magazine by New York lawyer Stewart Chaplin. A weasel word is any word or phrase that makes a statement less specific. Did anything change? It “seems” (looks, appears) like things are getting better. Are people better off than they were four years ago? “At least” (up to, as many as) 9 million people now own solar-charged robot butlers. OK, but what about everyone else? Where are their robot butlers?
