Scott Maxwell:

Readers’ feedback just part of the job.

It’s your turn.

Scott, Thank you for addressing the everyday silly stuff regular folks deal with. [“The dog-doo debate: Can you put it in someone else’s trash?”] You gave me the gift of laughter. I am a dog owner and have committed that little sin more than a few times. Look at it this way: When I lived in New York, I raised Great Danes ... I only have a midsized terrier right now. Better, right? Theresa

I guess … sort of like getting hit with a rock is better than a boulder.

I wish my next-door neighbors would at least put it in my trash can. They have four big dogs and … my front yard is FULL of landmines. So I go out there every few days with a shovel and flip the poop back into their yard. I don’t care where it flips — on their driveway, yard or some even ends up on their cars. Bill

Sounds like Pleasantville.

As long as they wrap the poo with Scott’s columns I wouldn’t have a problem with it.

Consider your dissatisfaction registered. Actually, it was probably registered with many of your previous 1,537 comments on our website. Still, the Sentinel’s revenue division appreciates your disdain.

Scott, I haven’t heard poop called ‘caca’ in over eighty years. I’m still laughing. It reminds me that whenever I hear about the soccer player, Kaká… well, I think he should change his name. Joan

Joan, I think when you’re as popular as Kaká, your name could be “Hemorrhoid” and people would still cheer.

Outstanding common sense in your article “Taxpayers Fund 5-Year Fight Over Docs-Glocks Gun Law.” I’m a widowed 22-year disabled veteran. I legally own guns and enjoy recreational shooting. But I couldn’t believe the absurdity associated with this measure. Thanks to this bill, I am no longer a member of the NRA. When they backed it, I walked away. Bruce

Bruce, thank you for your perspective — and for your service. There are plenty of legitimate gun debates with sensible folks on this side. This isn’t one of them.

Please run for president. Lord we could use someone with your wisdom, compassion, common sense along with a healthy dose of

humor! Julie

Julie, the day a Sentinel columnist runs for office is the day you’ll know the apocalypse is coming.

Scott, I saw a “Mike Thomas for Maitland City Council” sign.

Sandy

THE END IS NEAR!!!!

Thanks for today’s column. [“Red Light cameras: Fix ‘em. Use ’em.”] It is a rare day that I don’t see someone running a red light. It is dangerous and unnecessary. Bring on the cameras. And violators, stop whining. Lynd

Some locales have messed up by ticketing right-on-reds that

weren’t really violations in an attempt to money-grub. But most of the people whining about violations are just mad they got caught.

Sorry Scott, but I’ve got to file this column in the “You’re Full Of It” file. I defy ANYONE who’s been driving for more than a week not to run a red light — not because they’re a bad driver, but because of extenuating circumstances. Rantner

Rantner, I have two questions: 1) Are you really telling me you think it’s impossible to drive without running red lights? Because that’s just nuts. 2) How big is my “You’re Full Of It” file?

Good morning, Mr. Maxwell. While I was reading Section A this morning, my tomcat, Mannix, started sniffing the remaining sections of the paper and pawing at one page. He was trying to bury your column. Please don’t take this personally. Mannix is insane, even by cat standards.

Hanna

I don’t know, Hanna. They say cats have special sensory powers.

I feel bad when I walk past the bird cage and see Scott Maxwell face up. Why not Bianchi? Melanie

I feel like the animal world has turned on me.

I JUST WANTED TO COMMENT ON YOUR “WHERE I STAND” COLUMN. IT GOT ME TO THINKING ABOUT HOW I THOUGHT YOU WERE A BIG JERK. WELL, I’VE CHANGED MY MIND! YOU’RE NOT AS BIG A JERK AS I THOUGHT. IN FACT, WE HAVE A LOT OF SIMILARITIES. DAVE

Thanks, Dave. I wish we could be friends. Unfortunately, we cannot. I can befriend Republicans, Democrats, socialists and libertarians. But I could never befriend an ALL CAPS WRITER.

I look forward to and always read your columns when they appear in the St. Lucie News Tribune. Like a serving of peach cobbler, I save it for last. Herb

Herb, I love cobbler! And the folks down in St. Lucie!

I cringe every time the St. Lucie paper carries your claptrap. George

Well, I still love cobbler.
