Sound Off for October 2, 2017

Lower flood rate

I would rather buy beachfront property in Arizona than in Florida.

Multiple choice

Children, how do you spell hypocrisy? Tom P-R-I-C-E. Or, as an alternative, Scott P-R-U-I-T-T.

The paradox

Solitude is sweet, but isn’t it nice to have someone to say to that solitude is sweet?

Why not?

I don’t see why Sen. McCain can’t make life-changing decisions even with a brain tumor. After all, you brainless idiots voted in a psychopath as president.

No novelty

I’m 80 years old and delivered groceries to people’s homes when I was 8 or 9. The delivery of groceries is not a new concept.

Sounds familiar

Listening to President Trump's speech pattern reminds me of the way Peter Sellers talked in "Being There." Sad.

Stark contrast

Planting mature oaks in Downtown Columbus for shade and beauty, versus cutting down old growth in Midtown at St. Paul Church. Where would you want to live?

Other than that ...

I am through with the NFL, and I had been a fan since 1957. I won't attend another game, or watch them on TV. The players are overpaid, full of chemicals, plus ugly.
