A Waggish 'Win-Win'
According to an article in Loudoun Extra, Prem Devadas, president of Sheila Johnson's Salamander Hospitality, thinks the potential agreement with the town of Middleburg is a " 'win-win situation' for the resort and the town" ["Middleburg Weighs Resort Plan," Loudoun Extra, June 30]. My response, in verse:
"Win-Win"
Have you heard the latest report?
It's the sort to make merchants cavort.
To no one's surprise,
They'll double the size
Of Middleburg's "world-class resort."
There'll be more SUVs, perhaps fewer trees,
Fine dining, reclining and a spa, if you please.
There'll be plenty of spin,
We'll all shout, "Win-win!"
And talk of creating more places like these.
