Now we know whose signs Larry Agran has been removing. 
Next Tuesday’s Irvine City Council meeting will probably include a report from the Great Park Auditors. So like clockwork, bright orange AuditAgran.com signs went up, and, as usual, disappeared. yawn. What’s new is that an entity supporting the signs has now stepped into the light: None other the Orange Juice BFF Dave Ellis.
[Editor Vern to Tyler: No, THIS is the ur-text of the Orange Juice / Mr Toad relationship.]
Dave apparently forgot that Irvine residents get extremely pissy about signs of any kind blighting our lovingly tended, recycled-water irrigated, deeply green medians. He is complaining that his free speech rights are being violated. Heck, even Occupy Orange County has to get permits to be on our hallowed grass. Why is Dave surprised city crews cleaned up his ugly orange signs? For the curious, here is the legal demand letter in pdf form: Agran – Baric Letter
I know that Baric lives in Rancho Santa Margarita, but where does Ellis live again? Newport Coast?
Sounds may be time for Occupy Orange County to make a comeback down South. But is there enough green-colored street chalk in the world for what we’d have to do there?
*Larry Agran never goes down without a fight. NEVER! He may be the very one that first said: “I have twelve flying monkey’s and I’m not afraid to use them!”
Bingo.
He’s fighting on with his fake newspaper
He’s fighting on with the Animal Shelter issue
He’s fighting on with the Fifth High school [*]
I’ve been meaning to blog about this.
But, in the meantime, he’ll be fighting on in court.
[*] he’s right about this one, but unfortunately, it’s a lost cause. He could have set this rights when he controlled the Great Park. Alas, he didn’t.
*Larry is just going to say: “I spent my $200 million…..now you spend yours!”
Correct me if I’m wrong, but it WASN’T – HIS – $200M that he spent!
*What did they always say about Larry? He listens to the sound of a different drummer…….and was elected 100 times because of it. There is little doubt that Larry always wanted to be an urban planner. He probably
liked building erector sets when he was a kid. He probably had a Lionel “O” Gauge and “H” grade train set. He probably had a Mr. Potato Head too….and that is how he got the idea of getting into politics. Then don’t forget he was probably an avid Monopoly player and this is how he got the idea that all the money was just play money…….for politicians.
