| — Like the idea

“I like the idea of making better use of those transit busses we see around town. Who really knows what those buses are about, how you get on one and do they have regular routes?

The talk

“I knew we would be hearing a lot of talk about the new turf at the stadium after losing two games. The turf has nothing to do with the team except to give them a better place to play. The Pack will be okay and will grow. It’s about building a program not just a team.

Appreciate it

“I also got a letter changing my doctor's appointment. And I was GLAD. I rarely check my answering machine and I don't always get message that are left at work. I check my mail everyday!

Big picture

“I’m glad that we live in a country where we can complain about the football stadium, disparity in sports, doctors’ offices, potholes and race tracks. I think we also can take some time to applaud what we would consider the good stuff. I’ve read a lot lately about people making donations, doing volunteer work, winning awards, etc. This is a great country indeed. Let’s try to keep the big picture in perspective.

Intellectual

“Whoever said you had to be intellectual to write about politics? That would be to assume that politics itself is intellectual. What a misconception.

Cowboys, Indians

“I think Mr. Walden is very intellectual. I just read his column about cowboys and Indians and found it very thought provoking. I realize he was edging on sacrilege when he mentioned Randolph Scott but good commentary should push the envelope.

Dog rules

“This is to my neighbors. You can have only two dogs on your property inside the city limits. Get rid of the extras or I am going to call the city manager and compliance officer!

Deputy's life

“I am also a deputy's wife and agree with the previous post. Their pay sucks! I also make more than my husband and I don't risk my life every day for stupid people. They have to put up with all kinds of crap from people of all sorts and don't get any respect from anyone in the community. They do the best they can with what they have. Even when they are off duty they are still on. I think this community needs to stop putting down our law enforcement .

Common sense

“Mr. Walden's job is NOT to write about politics. He writes on common sense, which he has plenty of and I'm happy that he shares that with us.

Life is a matter of perspectives; think about it
My friend, a city boy, was yelling for help. We were fishing on a river, and he had ventured over to another spot.
“Someone help! I’m cornered!” he yelled.

We better wake up
Dear editor:
Have our GOP representatives gone to sleep or are they refusing to act for the people they are supposed to represent? The Obama administration has contracted a Spanish company called SCYTAL, to tabulate the 2012 November presidential election.

May God bless my Uncle Henry
My uncle once noted on his return from a fishing trip that he caught so many fish he couldn’t put them all in one pile.
That’s how I feel trying to keep up with all the causes and organizations that either require support groups or else they comprise support groups.

A kind humanity
Dear editor:
Humanity. One word. That word can translate into many other words. Some would say humanity is dark, greedy and bent on world domination. Others may say humanity is sweet, kind and caring. I myself witnessed a small part of a loving, caring humanity the other day.

Why it's a bad tax
Dear editor:
In regards to the Transportation TSplost Tax: The statement, “Economic development suffers if we don’t pass this tax” is not a valid statement, because Georgia has always been behind the 8 ball in regards to transportation, but yet look at the growth we have experienced; being behind in transportation didn't hinder economic growth. Georgia now ranks 11th in the country as of 2010 and this occurred mostly since 1995. The economic vitality of Georgia is alive and well considering the slump the country is in.
