GIVE HER AN ‘A’

Congratulations Ms. Fonda! Well-deserved recognition in the 2017 Excellence in Teaching awards. I am so proud to have been one of the first students you mentored in preparation for college. I thank God for you. Springfield High is so fortunate to reap the benefit of your services. SUNDAY

TRY SOME PAINT

Hey Delaware County Courthouse, how about painting that low barrier that you have in your garage up on the top level with some sort of caution paint so that you don’t run over it making that turn, specially in rainy weather when you can’t see it? After serving jury duty and banging up your car – how ridiculous is that? I’ve never seen a barrier in the middle of the parking garage.

YO, MYOB

To “Yo, Pick Up The Phone,” yeah, we do call code enforcement and we do call the township all the time. This is why we resort calling Sound Off, because nothing gets done. We don’t want our towns to start looking like that big city we live next door to because that’s what’s happening. If you want to live in a place with trash strewn all over, go move to Philadelphia.

CHECK IT OUT

It’s about time we had a Museum of the American Revolution. It’s a great place to see. Children and adults will love it. It’s about time we teach children the true roots of the American Revolution and how precious our freedom is. Everybody will like it. Go visit at Third and Chestnut Street in Philadelphia.

FLIGHT TO NOWHERE

I’ve been hearing this on and off for over a year now – how different people and companies are trying to develop a flying car. Are we out of our minds? People can’t even drive a regular automobile without crashing it. Just imagine that you’re flying around in your flying car looking at your cell phone, texting somebody and bam – I just hit the fifth floor of some building. And they’re saying you won’t need a pilot’s license to fly the ones are showing right now. And the guy on the news is saying, “I’d hate to be in there when the battery runs out.” You know that will happen if they do approve these things. Are Americans the stupidest people in the world or what?

WHAT DEMS DID

“Suzie Secane” wants to know what the Democrats have done for us in the last 10 years. Well, they’ve given affordable health care to many people in this country and gotten a lot of people who are uninsured in this country insured. And that’s a good thing whether you think it is or not. They also increased the minimum wage. It’s not where it should be, but it’s more of an increase than Republicans would have ever given them. And they’re only two examples of the many things the Democrats have done for us in the last 10 years, but you, being a right-winger, can’t see anything they’ve done for us because you don’t see what Republican Party is doing to you.

GET SOME SKILLS

“A Working Disgrace” wonders we politicians don’t try living on $7.25 an hour. Well, there’s the crux of the argument. As much as we get down on elected officials, they do have a valuable skillset that got them elected and keeps them in office. So instead of making politicians live on $7.25 an hour, why don’t the people making $7.25 an hour get skills that will make them more money?

TIME TO PAY UP

“What Mandates Mean” doesn’t seem to realize that with a small business owner employs 50 people, he’s making a pretty decent living and he can afford to pay his people $15 an hour, too. You people think $15 an hour some magical number that’s going to make everybody rich? Fifteen dollars an hour is not a lot of money.

WHY WE’RE DOOMED

Despite all the failures of the Trump administration and his belligerent attitude towards North Korea and other countries in the world that does us no good at all, a poll came out they said that only 2 percent of the people that voted for Donald Trump regret voting for him. This is another example of the stupidity that is rampant in America.

CATTING AROUND

All this talk from Obama calling bankers fat cats – it’s now reported that he’s going to make a speech for the fat cats. They’re going to pay him $400,000. So much for the fat cats stuff. These guys are so full of it. It’s the Democratic Party nowadays – the party of condescending rich, the globalist elites.
