Have fair in

September

I was calling to comment on a call that was put in today's [July 17, 2012] paper about it being too hot to go to the fair. I agree totally. That's one reason why we never go. It is too hot and if they did have that during like the fall, like other towns. Have it in September, you know, October, whenever. Even in the spring, in March or whatever when the weather is nice. It would be so much more pleasant than in the heat. And a lot of people are out of town on July 4th because the factories let go at that time and a lot of people can't enjoy it 'cause of the heat.

One of the big reasons we don't go is we can't get access to street down there. My car drags when I try to go up that residential road to get to the park. We don't have good access roads down there to even get to the park, so that's another deterrent. We can't even go down there because our car drags on that bad street trying to go down all those bumpy nodules and things all over the road and then when you get pass all that stuff you got a place that's so deep it drags. And so the parking and all that is just a deterrent, too. So, if the city wants to think about all those things, think about that and you might get more people to come.

Same sex isn't

the problem

In DAR's July 12 Speak Out, U. S. Leadership Isn't Christian. In the U. S. A., there is suppose to be freedom of religion and freedom from religion.

As far as same sex marriage, former Vice President Dick Cheney's daughter, Mary, married her partner, Heather Poe. That is not the problem. The problem is the economy.

Poor job on

Wilcox Road

The crew that patched Wilcox Road. The road must have been done by guys from City Cable. There's still potholes there. Does anybody know how we can get a hold of Councilman Robert Smith? He's not in the phone book. This is taxation without representation. We need some help up here, people. Thank you.

Ellsinore not

good enough

Yes, I'd like to know why there's someone sitting on the school board in Ellsinore who's took her children out of school because the school isn't good enough. I don't understand why she didn't resign from the school board when she took her children out. There's something wrong with that picture and I hope she reads this and answers it.
