“In regards to the article in last week’s Advance, ‘ Elementary and middle school cell phone bans improve academic gains,’ can someone gimme a big ‘DUH’! What further debate do these idiot politicians need to ban the cells in the high schools ?”

“On Lent Stevens Rd. everyone seems to think it’s a dumping site. They bring their trash, household items, dead animals, and everything else and dump it right side of the road. I was hoping someone would soon do something about it because it’s a mess over there.”

“Hwy. 280 as you’re coming into Lyons merges into one lane. Why do they have the arrows merge you into the lane that ends? It doesn’t make any sense. I wish someone would fix that.”

“Two things in Your Mind on Line last week: How the people in the grocery stores stand around and don’t do their work, and the no good politicians only worry about winning elections. Why don’t they talk about making things better for you and me? Keep it coming, Your Mind on Line.”

“I am horrified that the sons and daughters of Americans will be thrown into a mindless war by the worst president in the history of our country. Republicans, Congressman Allen, please, please stop him.”

“I just want to make clear that I will not vote for any candidate who is pushing abolishing the state income tax. Trust me when I say the government is going to get their tax money one way or the other, and we are going to be taxed to death in every other capacity that is available to the government. Just say no to the state income tax increase.”

“I was going to cook a turkey for Thanksgiving, but they cost 40% more than last year, so I looked at ham, up 30%. What are families supposed to do?”

“I just wanted to say that if we are trying to win the title for ugliest and dirtiest and most littered city in the southeast, we are well on the path to winning. However, if we want to do better, I think we should start cleaning this town up, using eminent domain and tearing down some of the old structures, cleaning this city up.”

“Congratulations to the Robert Toombs football team for winning the state championship on Friday. And to Coach Matt, he does a tremendous job at Robert Toombs, and he is a very godly man. Congratulations, Coach.”
