You’ve got a lot of nerve. How dare you say Cinco de Mayo isn’t a real

Just wanted to say how cool this site is.  My sister told me about it.  I think it is neat.  You don’t have to print this, but you can if you want.  I’m going to tell other people about this site so we can see what people are really thinking about instead of just what others say people are saying we are thinking about.

What a bunch of garbage!  Last summer these doinks doubled our water bill because of cost overruns.  Now they want to increase our water bills again by another 11% to 25% because of decreased water usage.  Have you doinks ever taken a course in economics before?  When you double the cost of something, it would be natural to expect a decrease in usage.  Thanks for nothing, doinks!  My own personal water softener system was working just fine.  I’ll show you where you can stick your water rate increases.  I’m going to drink diet coke full time now, no more water for me.  And forget about having lush, green lawns anymore.  You doinks can just look at the scenic brown landscape your water rate hikes are causing.  Hope you are happy, doinks!

Thank you generous citizens of Fenton!  Two of the three proposals passed.  So what if we don’t get a community pool to use, or to be able to host invitational swim meets.  The two most important ones, the ones that make improvements for the education of our children, passed.  This is a growing community with growing needs and I for one am very happy that people are willing to step up to the challenge.  Special thanks to everyone who helped to get the word out and get these proposals passed.

That siren you heard is just a test.  First Saturday of the month and all.  I’m glad we have the siren system.  Now we don’t have to worry about bomber planes flying overhead without warning.  We’ll all have time to go down into our basements or bomb shelters.  You do have a bomb shelter, don’t you?

Happy belated Cinco de Mayo everyone.  Just got rid of a slight hangover, but had a wicked time.  Margaritas in the afternoon at BW3s was awesome.  Played a little trivia and hung out with friends.  More people should treat Cinco de Mayo like a real holiday.

I’ll tell you.  People in this town really like to drive through orange lights – you know, half yellow and half red.  They taught me in Driver’s Education that a yellow light does not mean “speed up.”  I guess a lot of you did not have the same instructor.

I really don’t know what to think about this new bond vote in Fenton. On the one hand, it would be nice to get a tax break as the old bond is finished. On the other, the schools really could use the money. Back on the first hand, I could use the money, too. What to do, what to do.

We need more places to shoot pool in this town.  There are only two places that I can think of.  That’s just not enough.  We need more pool tables (or I need more friends with pool tables in their basements).

Prom time, prom time, where does the time go.  You kiddies dont do no drinking and driving like when I was a teen.  It just aint safe to do that stuff no more.  Now it is just plain dumb and dangerous.  But have a good time, too!  Be safe!  Love you all!

This is supposed to be like the Hot Line?  Whatever.

Great Site!! It’s about time we have a real-time alternative to TCT. Thanks!!

Please stop at the three way stop. Stop signs are there for a reason, you know.

Hey all you litterbugs who throw their pop and beer cans out the window while driving on the expressway, keep up the good work. I clean up your mess and cash in. All you richies who don’t mind throwing away your trash one dime at a time, thanks. Those dimes add up to real dollars.

Thank you to the man in line in front of me at the drive through at McDonald’s. That was a nice thing to do, buying my daughter an icecream cone. We really weren’t expecting that. It was a nice treat. There should be more people like you.

Inspired by the many words of wisdom found in our beloved “Hot Lines,” evolution takes hold yet again as we step forward through the twenty-first century.
