Albany Recreation & Parks, Tee Taylor, you did an outstanding job hosting the Senior Citizen Prom. It’s a shame that it was only one commissioner there and he was from the county side. Also, Thanks to the chief of police, coroner, Fire Department, Shriners and the Albany Steppers for stepping in when we needed a dance partner.

Rachel Maddow said the reason the Democrats lost was because of the rain. If it keeps raining like this, I guess the Democrats will never win another election.

I saw a commercial a while ago for a series coming on and it said it was more violent than “The Sopranos.” That shows you what shape this country is in when you advertise a show as more violent than “The Sopranos.”

Don’t believe what you hear from the idealistic Republicans. Republicans love big government. George W. proved that.

If business owners and managers would stop panhandlers from loitering on their property, they wouldn’t be as bad. They don’t want food. They want cash for alcohol, tobacco and lottery tickets.

I’m 56 years old and I’ve never had an easy-going period in my life. Bad things have always happened to me. Now with the internet and smartphone screwing up the whole world and making everything hell on earth, everybody knows how I feel.

I highly recommend anyone living in Dawson being stolen blind should purchase a true chow dog. We had that problem in Dougherty County, but once we got our chow, it stopped.

To the squawker who sees no reason for people to go to North Korea, in some of those cases they have relatives in that country and they want to know about their well-being.

To the squawker that thinks President Trump has questionable ties to Russia, where in the devil do you get your facts? That’s not true. And you certainly don’t know what he’s afraid of.

Doctors don’t remove perfectly food organs like hearts, livers, etc., from living people, do they? Why would a doctor want to remove perfectly good genitalia? We truly live in bizarre times.

T. Gamble, you’re right. Miller Lite will make you do things you don’t want to do.

I was in the doctor’s office the other day looking at a magazine and they had an article about Pearl Harbor being susceptible to a Japanese attack.

Kathleen Parker is right. Words can hurt.

The $25 million Jon Ossoff spent losing to Karen Handel is the kind of income redistribution I can live with. Y’all come back now, you hear?

Trump says he doesn’t want any poor people in his administration because they’re not smart enough to do the job. There’s another example of Republicans looking the other way and holding their noses.

Just pass the health care bill so we can see what’s in it.

I believe that all Congress personnel should be on the same health insurance programs as the rest of the American people. They have been riding the free wave off the taxpayers long enough. Put them on the same scale as the rest of us and watch things change here in America. They need to be liable to the same laws as the rest of us.
