You Said It!
Letters to the
Editor
Dear Editor,
Thank you for providing such insightful and informed news, unlike some other
news outlets in your area. I'm writing this letter to simply point out an
insulting comment made on a local radio station recently. The show was
talking about the new Whit's End that was being built in Connellsville. Then
they quoted some slouch who said something like, "They have no idea what
they're doing. This is Oswald Heights, not Nice Valley Falls."
With all due respect to whatever his name was, I don't think that the name
Nice Valley Falls should be thrown around like a football. NVF is a great
place to live and I don't like it when people use our name as some sort of a
"throwaway." I don't think that Mister whats his name would have made his
comment if he could he visited our fair town.
Sincerely yours,
Goody Tooshuze from Nice Valley Falls
Dear Odyssey Times,
I recently read an article in The Odyssey Owl that I understand you'll be
reprinting today in your paper. The article is about the miniature golf
record that was recently broken. The article is all about Mandy Straussberg
and how she broke the record, but it barely mentions Alex Jefferson, who
broke the record after it stood for more than 30 years.
Moreover, the article doesn't mention me at all. I was the one who
faithfully stayed at Alex's side and gave him updates on his score
throughout the game. I was the one who called a crowd over to watch Alex
while he putted. I was the one gave Alex tips, especially on the horrible
waterfall hole (number 18).
I just wanted to make sure there's credit where credit is due.
Disappointed,
Nathaniel Graham
