Columnist learns to love Elvis

    How small should we be?

    I read the commentary on "large" in the April 7 issue of the Saratoga News. It appears you are very unhappy with your lot. Should we all live in small housing units and drink small drinks and eat banquet sandwiches? Should we all drive VW bugs or Morris Minors? What do you think?

    Your reference to Jerry Brown is interesting. Perhaps you don't know that he is now mayor of Oakland. You could probably relocate there, volunteer to assist him a little less (since less is more) and apply for a position at the Oakland Tribune (or is it gone?).

    If you truly intend to report on Saratoga, I suggest you attempt to build a more positive attitude toward the citizens and the business community. Good luck!
