Sound Off

Sound Off for December 10, 2017

What’s your plan today?

If college football games were held on Sunday mornings, churches would have to close. Sunday morning golfers, hunters, and "travel" ballplayer parents are already missing. God sees your priorities.

Balancing the books

The government really has a good CPA. He figured to the penny that my two percent SSA raise equaled exactly my Part B Medicare insurance raise. And, I get the exact same amount as last year. Whoopee!

Verbal incompatibility

From the "oxymoronic headline of the year" department: "Six women pursue class-action suit against Weinstein" (L-E) — No way should "Weinstein" and "class" be in the same sentence/phrase.

Some way, we’ll pay

Wonder how much “Sheldon Adelson, the Las Vegas casino magnate” contributed to Trump’s campaign to convince that idiot to inflame the Middle East with his latest stupid move?

Pick & choose morality

Congress has allowed the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) to expire. Kids in the program have no coverage, proof that Republicans care about the unborn, but not after they come into the world.

Missing out

Yet another new business with 1,000-plus jobs is coming to a nearby city — not Columbus. Are our city leaders and Chamber of Commerce promoting our amazing city enough?

Prime location

Attention motorcycle police officers — if you would park at the intersection of Psalmond and Macon roads, you can write all of the tickets to your hearts’ content.
