Bonnie and Clyde
Posted on Sat, Dec 29, 2012 at 8:23 AM
I am Bonnie, he is my Clyde. Never a question, always down to ride. The
darkest secrets are kept by the one closest to my side. He knows when I've
lied, tried or cried. He is embedded in my insides, together, we have a
wicked stride. The gangsta Bonnie and Clyde pride, a bit of the Caribbean,
with that southern fried. Dat trust you can dive in and hide. Married by
feelings, his ghetto bride. When he slips, I slide. When he soars, I glide.
If he loses a breath, a piece of me dies. When he extends his inhales, I
share in his highs.. We are the ghetto Bonnie and Clyde Cheers. WW
You Sweet Thing!

Thanks to "Celebrations" Bakery for their prize of a dozen cupcakes for
best "Cheers" every week. That is a very generous "thank you" to the most
gracious applauding the quiet good- guys of our town. Go to them for the
yummy treats and you'll be supporting a small business as well as our
pal, "The Inlander". ( I am a non-paid spokesman as they say on midnight
infomercials!) Thank you, Celebrations!

I saw you Tuesday, December 18th. You were sitting across from me. You were
a curly haired, beautiful blonde. I was wearing a business suit, not my
favorite attire. I hope to see you again.
Dear, I Saw You People
Posted on Sat, Dec 29, 2012 at 8:23 AM
I have been an avid I Saw You fan since before I could date, with all the
sweet nothings and creepy notes written to the unsuspecting potential
loves. Lately however, the notes have been lackluster or nonexistent. Come
on people! Grow some courage and reach out to the girl you made eye contact
with at the bar, but did not have the guts to talk to, try to find the man
you accidentally spilled your coffee on and flirted with shamelessly for an
hour or just use this as a platform to declare the love you feel towards a
friend you have liked since meeting them. Enough with the Jeers, we have
enough hate in our world as it is. Let's just spread the love and maybe
meet someone great along the way. Sincerely, The I Saw You Fan.

you have dark hair and eyes with a cool sense of style, we met at a small
bar I worked at and then we hung out one night at the Moose Lounge in CDA.
You were with a friend from out of town. Anyhow we hit it off and you wrote
some useful info on my arm, 3rd street perhaps? Haven't seen you since, but
would love to, hope you see this!
Do Not Enter
Posted on Sat, Dec 29, 2012 at 8:23 AM
To the guy who decided to ENTER through the EXIT ONLY at the Starbucks on
Thierman and Sprague on Thursday morning 12/20. First of all, Merry
Christmas. Secondly, if you are gonna flip me the bird, make sure it was I
who was doing something illegal, not you. I was in your way because I was
exiting... through the exit.
I Can't Take It Anymore
Posted on Sat, Dec 29, 2012 at 8:23 AM
It's high time to start pushing back against what seems to be a growing
number of people living in our 'fine' community who seem to think that they
are so important that their lives, activities and philosophies take
precedent over everyone else's. People whose attitudes fairly scream "
dare you to confront my care-less attitude no matter how far over the line
of decency and respect I step'. Well, I'm stepping. I'll start close to
home, with those neighbors of mine who have dogs that are allowed to bark
constantly, not only all day, but well into the evening, and especially
whenever I simply wish to go out in my own backyard. C'mon, people! Are
you so deaf that that you can't hear it? I think not. I call and you bring
him in for what, five minutes? Then he's right back out there, barking his
a** off, which shows a total lack of respect for anyone else's right to go
be outside, in their own yard. I know you can hear him. And, he's not a
Labrador, like you told my 86-year-old mother (but that's a different can
of worms). And two houses to the west, why there's another houseful of
people who obviously share the same credo. What's wrong with you people!
Are you that unmindful of other people's right to enjoy the sanctity of
their own property? Are you that thoughtless? Do you think that it's okay?
Or, do you even think about it? I doubt it. I seriously doubt it.
Suspicious Activity
Posted on Sat, Dec 29, 2012 at 8:23 AM
To our bank for considering our Canadian hotel reservation "suspicious
activity" and locking down our account after we got to Nelson, BC. Bank
security called my wife, and she answered all their security questions, and
they assured her that everything was OK, but repeated attempts to use our
card were declined. After several very expensive phone calls to our bank,
we were told it was our fault for not telling them that we were going out
of the country, and that nothing could be done until we visit our branch on
Monday! We returned to Metaline Falls, and the card was still declined.
Fortunately a Subaru will go a lloooonnggg way on empty. We couldn't reach
a human being using the number on the card, so I had to use my smart phone
to get another number, at $15 a megabyte. Way to go! You aren't the bank
you used to be. We're outta there
Re: Blue Recycle Buckets
Posted on Sat, Dec 29, 2012 at 8:23 AM
So you had a misunderstanding with the city of Spokane about the old
recycle bins, and you lost yours. Jeers to you for choosing to deal with
the situation by jeering and ranting and issuing meaningless threats (do
you really think anyone cares whether you, as one individual, recycle or
not? I'm sure the folks at the city are shaking in their boots). Let me
present you with at least one other option you could have chosen. You could
have posted a Cheers to congratulate the city for finally getting its act
together and going to single-stream recycling. Then you could have
explained the loss of your old recycle bin, and politely asked if anyone
had one they didn't want that they could give you. I'll bet you would have
had more offers of little blue bins than you could shake a stick at. And
jeers not just to this person, but to all of us (I include myself, because
I sometimes do it too) who react with knee-jerk anger when we feel we've
been wronged, rather than trying to find a way to make the situation
better. Could we all start trying to be a little more mature?
Missing Dog
Posted on Sat, Dec 29, 2012 at 8:23 AM
To the dirtbag who sped off with my faithful companion of nine years. My
dog was not much to look at, yet he was always there for me with a good
attitude when I was down. If anyone sees the thief with my stolen dog
please call the cops and have them rescue my dearly missed friend. He is a
black lab with three legs, blind in right eye, missing left ear, tail
broken and has recently been castrated. He answers to the name of lucky.
