New Wave

System failure

Well, here it is, Friday. Typical weekend here in Poplar Bluff and at 5:30 p.m. New Wave suffers what appears to be a "system-wide" failure. So now I'm starting to wonder. They blame the satellite services for being operated by monkeys, but really did the monkeys break into New Wave? I'm really starting to wonder just how far they will go to make us all feel like idiots and worse yet for them make us all decide that, well, I'd rather deal with a monkey and satellite than New Wave. Wake up, city, and wake up the management at New Wave. We're tired of your excuses and we're getting absolutely tired of your failure.

City council--can't you find somebody that knows how to operate the cable system? C'mon, you sold us all down the river. It's time to hold their feet to the fire, don't you think?

Males get move video time at jail

Hey, I wanna know why the males in jail get a 6:30-9:30 time video and the females only get 8:30-9? That's not fair. It's not right. Unless you've just got that many more males. Thirty minutes is not a lot of time, but two and half hours more for the men, please? Thank you.

Thank you

Yes, I would personally like to thank the Walgreen's Pharmacy in Ironton, Missouri. I have Medicare and Medicaid and the pharmacy I was using made full co-pay on them and I transferred to Walgreen's and the lady explained that I'd been paying twice as much co-pay as I should have been paying that Medicaid should have been picking up half of it and this lady went to all the time and the trouble to bill it like should have been billed and she's gonna save me at least $200 a year by doing it right and if I could thank the Walgreen's in Ironton for going above and beyond the job. Thank you.

PB a close

second?

Probably Flint, Michigan, has the most slum and abandoned houses in the United States. Poplar Bluff is in second place. Clean up this mess. Thank you.
