Crime lab
“The crime lab is due to be closed in March. Why doesn’t the city and county get together to see if it is feasible to own it. Lowndes county is building their own. We can contract the services to other counties that would have to send to Macon. Just a thought.
Go Pack!
“Packer fans head to Atlanta Friday. Stephenson's stadium holds 15,600 people. Let's make sure we have lots of Colquitt County people in it.
The chief
“No money for the police department? The Observer noted that under Chief Bedal, Norman Park had a self- sufficient police department. I guess he wasn't that bad a chief after all.
Proud
“I have never been more proud of my community than I was this past Friday night at Westlake High School. Never mind the sportsmanship and discipline displayed by the players and coaches. I'm talking about the way we looked and behaved before/after the game. Tip of the hat Colquitt Countians and ‘Go Pack Go’.
Senseless?
“Don't you hate when the media describes something as a ‘senseless’ crime? Is there such a thing as a’ sensible’ crime?
Water issues
“NASA shouldn't have reported that water is on the moon. Alabama and Florida will sue them for it.
Holiday
“Please everyone, let's be sure to say 'Merry Christmas' and not 'Happy Holidays' next month. ‘Twas the night before the holiday and all thru the house...' just doesn't sound right, does it?
Shop local
“The holiday season is upon us. Please keep the local merchants in mind, especially with the economy being as weak as it is. Support the local guys. We’re all in this together.
Whose duties?
“The problem is the mayor and council of Norman Park want to run the Police Department. Until they realize that a police department needs to be run by the chief and not the mayor, they will always have problems.
The money
“Could someone explain why Obama hasn't got the $70 billion he said Iraq had as a surplus? I remember him campaigning about it and, as usual, blaming Bush. It's been almost a year. That money would come in handy.
