To the many drivers out there in the Spokane vicinity: All cars & trucks built after 1950 have turn signals. I suggest you folks start using them & in a timely manner. They are used several car lengths before a turn not feet before & also come in handy for lane changes. Ever wonder why that jerk in the next lane would not let you in? Try using your turn signal people, it works & it is the courteous thing to do. Thanks to those who do, the rest try it you'll like it!!!

Jeers to the business that misspelled a contest winner’s name on their reader board & left it that way. How hard is it to send an employee back out to fix the error? If public congratulations are part of your prize package then you should deliver & not dismiss it as a minor detail. No one likes to see their name misspelled, no matter what they tell you. Customers notice carelessness & indifference, especially when you highlight it in neon.

I was amazed at what I saw a few weeks ago at a mall. I haven't been able to find anyone to complain to about it so I figured why not vent here. I was walking past the candy machines near the main entrance and was amazed to see the man filling the machines stick his had down the back of his pants and scratch his rear end then moments later stick the same hand (with no gloves) inside the machine and move the candy around before filling it (again with no gloves). This is the same candy that our children pay for and put in their mouths. In this day of germ an virus awareness shouldn't there be more care taken by these people? Where are the rules they must follow? Shame on the mall for not hiring cleaner people to do this job!

Beware as a risk of buying from unprincipled puppy producers of poor breeding. The puppy I bought was guaranteed AKC quality and it actually has so many health problems, it may need to be put to sleep. We are both suffering & expenses are tremendous for a low-income senior citizen. I saved up for one last puppy because of my age.

By hitting my daughter's car due to your carelessness and lying about it, you have stolen her 1st car, her faith in religious mentors, her independence, and possibly her job. You admitted to the police who came to the accident,
that you had taken your eyes off the road "to check your speed" (doubt it).
There is video surveillance of you not slowing down, or swerving. It's obvious you were talking or texting. Just remember... "A liar is worse than a thief & a thief shall not enter the kingdom of God." You're down by 2 counts in God's book. Perhaps you'll finally realize that what goes around comes around.

Mega-JEERs to the pathetic gun blasting freak who shattered our peaceful, semi-rural neighborhood of SW Spokane in the middle of the night. You fired away with 50 or more shots terrorizing all of us within a 1/2 mile radius of your house. What the hell were you thinking!? Were you drunk? Showing off? Venting? No excuses! You suck! Oh, I'm sure you could see your target, whatever the hell that was, in the dark! Did you really think that no one would hear you or care where your bullets were ending up? OMG! Take your night time trigger finger and shove it right up your barrel, you inconsiderate POS!

To the low-life S.O.B. bicyclist who ran over and killed the poor innocent squirrel right in front of me in Riverfront Park last week. As the sweet animal, who never harmed anyone, sat eating a peanut I had tossed him, you cruelly and without a second thought squashed him. You had about 15' of pavement to ride on but chose to ride in the 1.5' between the squirrel and the grass closest to the little guy. Of course, he freaks out and attempts to run to the nearest safety leading him directly under your tires! After he is smashed, he half scampers, half convulses under a tree where I run to him knowing there is little I can do to help but feeling the need to be there to comfort him as best I can. I watch as he flops about, takes a couple last labored and surely painful breaths. While I watch him die you just keep going on your merry freaking way while I scream to you that you killed the innocuous creature as he enjoyed his meal oblivious to the heinous jerk approaching him. I hope karma rewards you someday by having a bus flatten you the way you flattened that squirrel! I hope that you survive but are left unable to breed more ugliness such as yourself.

Not only is tonight First Friday, but it just so happens to be Good Friday as well. And while the weather appears to be teetering from winter into spring (and back), downtown is set to transcend for one night into an art Mecca. More than 30 art exhibitors will have their doors open from 5 pm-8 pm and will be showcasing the best and most creative artists around.
This evening’s most enigmatic installment, the
Transcendence Project, will take you to four locations throughout downtown Spokane.
Grande Ronde Cellars will feature the paintings and batiks of Kenyan artist Nicholas Sironka.
On the Bennet Block’s
Brick Wall Gallery the unique x-ray art of
Steven N. Meyers (pictured, right) will be up.
Hot Club of Spokane will perform at the
Whitestone Winery and Dan Conrad will perform at Arbor Crest Tasting Room (inside River Park Square.)
Of course, unlike in many metropolises, Spokane's art galleries are somewhat scattered about the downtown core, making it nearly impossible to visit them all. Galleries stretch on this First Friday from the
Globe restaurant all the way to the
MAC in Browne’s Addition, so put on your hiking boots.
For a full list of First Friday events pick up a free
Inlander at any of a gazillion locations downtown and turn to page 33.

Drink too much last night? Forgot what we suggested for Saturday night? Silly you. Here are the best of the best local live shows for tonight.
If you have any ounce of the blues in you, you'd be in good company all day Saturday at Daley's Cheap Shots (6412 E. Trent). Crosstown, Don Larson & the Cynics, the Longnecks, Voodoo Church and the Boozefighters. It's 10 bucks for all day. And the show poster says "Dress up to get messed up" ... so you're probably going to want to do that.
Bust out your powdered wig and head to Sunset Junction for that annual west-side band invasion, WigBash. Tomorrow night Space Opera 77 takes the stage with Paris Spleen, the Globes and SHIM. $6. 9 pm.
And if neither of those sound good, check out poppy singer Gavin Castleton at The Blvd or local hip-hop star Rod Mac at the Cretin Hop.
Good day to you.
