Speak Out 3/7/15

Still snowbound

It could only happen in Poplar Bluff. It is eight o'clock on Friday evening. It started snowing on Sunday afternoon. We have not seen a snow plowing our neighborhood all week. Tonight the snow plow came through our neighborhood and guess what? Drove through the neighborhood with the blade up and made no attempt to pile the snow, so guess what? Our street is still snowbound. It could only happen in Poplar Bluff!

Just say 'no'

I see that at the next council meeting that our city administrator is requesting two more toys for his front office. When is it going to stop? They don't have money to buy a lot of things but they continue to buy him the toys that he requests. Does the council have courage enough to turn something down that the man requests? I doubt it!
