ReplyThe Herald was the one publication I hadn't seen yet. ("We are aware of problems in your delivery area. Your paper should be delivered by ... 9:30 a.m." This was at 8 a.m.) None of the others listed the law firm. I just think if someone is accused publicly, the identify of those making the accusation should also be published.
And Teresa -- funny!

ReplyJeff, did you ask each and every voter if he/she were conservative, libertarian, liberal or xxxx something else, I don't care what? I voted and I don't recall being asked my political leanings upon getting my code to get a ballot. Why slam one end of the political spectrum? Do you know that lots of liberals were out there? Or that the libertarians were having a "get out the vote" effort?

ReplyI have to point out that the "geneva" home may have a Geneva address and the kids go to Geneva schools. But it's not in Geneva. So if living in the city is important to you, and having city police and fire, and other city services, as WELL as Geneva schools, you'd need to look elsewhere.

Reply$50 a semester is NOT too much. If the kid or the family has enough money for a teen to have a car they surely have enough money to pay the parking fee. Come on -- it's NOT that it costs too much, it's that the kids consider those spaces too far away. MAYBE if the football field were free kids would park there, but when you combine any fee with the distance, kids would rather park on the street.

ReplyI thought the show was amazingly tedious. The opening skit had little/nothing to do with movies. And the boob song? Please. Grow up. Quickly. Talk about sophomoric.

ReplyHappy anniversary Rick and Paula! I love this! I still remember reading a long, long-ago column in which you talked about being the the Bill Ottilie fund-raiser and discovering the two of you walking out, hand in hand. Sadly, I think it was in the wake of Ottilie's death ... But I still remember it all these years later. Happy anniversary, and many more.
