Bucks Co. Town To Be Overrun By Chanting Hippies

100307yoga.jpg
A couple in Solebury, Bucks County, wanted to run a series of yoga retreats at their house during the year. Not too many; just five sessions on their 10-acre property. They have enough parking, they're installing a new septic tank to deal with the bathrooms and, um, it's yoga. No problem, right?

Well, yeah, of course there's a problem.

On Tuesday, supervisors heard testimony from Alisa Bhatnagar about the proposal, while neighbors raised concerns that ranged from the amount of chanting that will be done to the number of people the property will host at one time.

Yes, because there is no more cacophonous sound than "Om."

Oh, yeah, and this:

“I don't want you to be afraid it's some kind of hippies living next door,” she said. “We're not hippies. We're not a commune.”

No! Hippies! Not the hippies!

Maybe the neighbors are concerned about the smell from groups of people using crystal rock deodorant that doesn't work

Yeah, yoga retreats are known for being loud and bawdy. Especially the meditation part.
