One shoe?

“So you write a column about a stupid shoe in the road? At first I thought how lame! Then I find myself looking for shoes in the road and behold there is one just past my house. I once found a cowboy boot in the road. It was in good shape. Well it’s better than reading about sexual harassment.

Applause

“Congratulations Packers! You made it to the big game in a ‘down year.’ That’s quite an accomplishment!

My experience

“I was amazed and frightened this morning to see a couple of cars in all that fog without their lights on. How oblivious can one be to his surroundings!

Conspiracy

“This Russian collusion and the Mueller investigation appears more and more to be plain and simple agents of the federal government attempting to nullify a national election. That goes way beyond obstruction or investigation abuse or misconduct and resides solidly in the realm of seditious conspiracy.

Bipartisan

“About the only bipartisan thing I’ve seen lately is that both parties have their share of perverts and predators!

Front page

“When you post a picture of a sex offender on the front page of the newspaper, you need to consider how the victims/family feel. They have already been through enough without it being broadcast on the front page. It’s like it’s happening all over again and now everyone knows. Think people, it isn’t just a story to them.

In response

“How many of the women that were inappropriately touched slapped the man that did it. If not, then they said it was all right to do it. The thing about abstinence or pregnancy: If they can get free birth control and if they cut off welfare you will see the birth rate go down.

A catalyst

“I’ve been out of town for a while and I come back and find the medical college has been approved here. What a gem! This will be a big shot in the arm for our community!

This will be a catalyst for other good things to come, I’m sure. Applause to all of those who had a hand in getting this facility.

Freebies

“If you think they will do away with the G.A.T.E. card, I’ve got a bridge and ocean front property I would like to sell you. It’s hard to make freebies go away!
