Letters to the Editor
Free Clinic
Having just recently moved our
family to the area, my husband and I would like to say thank you to
everyone, especially Mayor Tom Riley, for making us feel so welcome. Also,
as the town's newly installed official veterinarian, I'd like to remind
everyone of the free rabies clinic October 11th at our farm, sponsored by
the Odyssey Birdwatchers Society and the local chapter of the Humanity
Toward Animals Association. Free rabies shots will be given and other
vaccines for your animals will be administered at a significant discount. We
also need volunteers for this event, so if you can help out, please call the
HTAA at 555-9424.
Signed,
Dr. Traci Mulligan, Veterinarian
Dear Editor,
A lot of people have been
writing in about the big bones that were found on Bart Rathbone's property a
couple of days ago. Some say they think it's Bigfoot, other people think
it's a bear. But I'll tell you what it is. Those big bones belong to a
prehistoric creature called "Personal Mucha Grande," which is foreign for
"really big person." These creatures lived during dinosaur times. Not many
people know about them because the government has kept its secret from the
American public. They don't want to create a panic, because guess
what--they're still alive! That's right, they have existed all this time,
except they're not on earth right now. They lived here and ate dinosaurs
until there weren't any left. Then they decided to go to other places in the
universe to find some good food. The bad thing about being on earth is that
we have the best food in the universe. So they'll be coming back any time
now. And guess what their favorite dish will be... Us.
Just something to think about.
Sincerely,
Jared Pierce
Disagreement
I would like to heartily
disagree with your recent article about the quality of food at Quentin's
Quick Burgers. We use only the highest FDA standard meat and low-fat,
high-cholesterol oil in our French fries. Your allegations that we are
unhealthy and "grease-saturated" was irresponsible journalistically. We give
the customer what they want. If and when our society changes its dietary
habits, then we'll be happy to lead the way into a new era of fast food
dining. But until then, we will continue our present menu. (And by the way,
we've recently added a new "drive-thru" window to serve our customers
better.)
