Jeers to parents and schools who send children out into the community to
sell things door-to-door to raise money for sports, trips, extracurricular
activities, and such. If the parents cannot afford to, or are unwilling to,
pay for their child's activities, why do they think strangers such as I
would be so inclined to pitch in? What's most irritating is that these
children usually ring my doorbell just as I am fixing or eating dinner.

This jeer specifically goes to the "wonderful friends" mentioned in the
jeer. (you who did the jeering may stop reading here.) Now, as I understand
it, you're devoted Christians hanging out with "atheists"
and "freethinkers"... Yeah, this is not a good idea, as they will never
understand your servitude to Christ. And will ultimately sway you toward
disbelief in an effort to "liberate" you from what they see as tyranny. I
mean, take a look around you. The world is just what was said it would be.
As it is , we're mostly seen as fools to them anyway. So it's probably just
as well should they continue to ignore God as they may never have any true
understanding anyway. We know different. So, please, stand solid. Evermore,
those of us here in the "cloudy abyss" would like to encourage your faith.
But also to warn you to not marginalize what you've come to trust and love
and to also bear in mind Matthew 7:6.

Bring back the horoscopes! I need somebody else to tell me how to be and
what to expect from my day!

I have no idea what I did to deserve an amazing man like you! I have never
been as in love or happy as am I with you in my life. I am completely and
ridiculously in love with you!

To the jackwad who allowed her little dog (encouraged her little dog!) to
do his business in the Greenwood Cemetery Memorial Terrace on Mother's Day.
What possesses you to be so thoughtless and disprespectful? You look
entirely old enough to know better and your cute little dogs with their
little cute floopy pony tails, really? It would have taken you another 5
seconds to walk them across the path to the forest edge. It's wrecks of
humanity like you that really make me worry about the future of
civilization as far as teaching our children about taking care of ourselves
and our little patch of earth and being polite and kind and thoughtful.
Assclown.

today my love for you grows. My desire to be a better man, to be more than
I've ever been before fuels me with each awakening to seize this day and be
all that I can be. We don't get these days back and I am glad for each one
I get to spend with you. Your Kevin

I understand that this is a child friendly library, I get it. But what I
don't get is the adults talking as if they are in a large crowd, so they
shout their conversations. Many people come here to study and read, as well
as use your wi-fi. But it is difficult trying to get anything done because
of your obnoxiously loud chatter! And to make matters worse it nothing is
done to quiet down the chatter. Now maybe I'm just a grouchy old timer, but
I thought that libraries were a study friendly place, and not a zoo or a
daycare. Ironically, the staff got after someone for not using headphones
when their music was not even all that loud, and certainly not as loud as
the conversations they like to have with everyone ringing up. I understand
that you want to catch up, and I wouldn't mind it so much if you would just
learn the art of whispering. Many of us do have things to get done, and
cannot concentrate when someone in the room is literally shouting their
conversations.

To the tall, thin woman who is loud and wonderful. You are kind to everyone
who talks to you. You can't walk a city block without someone reaching out
to talk to you. You are giving beyond the normal human ability. In a day
and age of hiding behind normalcy and status-quo, you are honest about
yourself and share the truth about how you're feeling and who you are! An
interaction with you is refreshing and leaves a person feeling better about
themselves. How do you fit all the people and things you care about into
one heart!? You drive your blue car around downtown offering socks and
waters, but instead give anyone you meet a piece of yourself. Cheers to the
best damn citizen of this town. May the kindness and love you hand out
freely come back to you one thousandfold.

to the SPD officer who responded to a hit and run/property damage incident
on our property last Thursday night. He was timely, professional, funny and
more than thorough. He even tracked down the showerbag who fled and hid in
his house. We're not typically rah rah SPD but he really kicked ass and we
appreciate his efforts.

Jeers to the Inlander for still having the jeers section. It is time to get
rid of the jeers section once and for all, like the horoscope. Anonymous
badmouthing does not make for a better society.
