Sound Off for June 27, 2016

Water war prep

Years ago, in high school, our teacher asked us, "What three states is water found in?" Instead of the correct answer (solid, liquid and gas), one student answered, "Georgia, Florida, and Alabama."

Albatross

So Donald Trump is now the GOP savior. He'll bankrupt this country (like many of his bankers), end all friendly foreign affairs and take the GOP down with him. Bad move, folks.

Fresh face

Attention, class: Gitmo causes more terrorism because people are incarcerated without being charged with a crime and are held indefinitely. San Quentin has different rules.

Power play

People who believe Frank Myers wants transparency from the school board need to wake up. Frank wants to be a kingmaker, and the king he has in mind is Frank.

Close enough?

OK, I’m not the sharpest pencil in the drawer. How can someone from Americus be Miss Columbus?

Prognostication

If doctors were as wrong as weather forecasts, we’d all be dead.
