While visiting Charleston we weren't surprised to see a car devoured by a sinkhole in Kanawha City. When we lived full time in Charleston, we begged the city to do something about another sinkhole on 42nd Street in Kanawha City. The consequence of our request resulted in the street department placing a wooden horse around the sinkhole. Returning five years later, the wooden caution horse was still in the same place overtaken by weeds. The sinkhole was wider and deeper.
People need to wake up and not vote for any of our congressmen that voted to raid our Society Security Trust Fund. It's our money that we paid into the fund, and it's a trust fund, not a slush fund.
To the venter who hasn't received his stimulus check: Don't feel like the Lone Ranger. I haven't received mine either.
I see in the paper where Riverside High School is going to hire a coach from Lincoln County. That coach will not last up there with those Riverside fans. I predict he will be gone in two years.
I believe the drivers of West Virginia have forgotten that when you're driving in the rain and have your windshield wipers on, your headlights must be on, too.
I see where Pacman Jones is going to pray for Don Imus. He needs to pray for himself.
The purpose of shoes is to keep feet protected. Students shouldn't be allowed to wear flip-flops to school because of harmful bacteria and other hazards.
We are fortunate in America that the U.S. Constitution trumps the Bible. So if it's constitutionally legal, you can do it.
Don Surber's sense of analysis is ridiculous and he needs to be fired.
I think it's low down for anyone to steal cemetery vases off of graves. You can't even die in peace anymore. If people are that hard up, there's help available.
I see where Charley West is having a cookout. I hope he's not cooking any locusts.
How about we put some light strips or glow-in-the-dark tape on the buoys in the Kanawha River for the boaters out here who are paying their taxes daily?
I'm a retired schoolteacher who saw a program at the Charleston Civic Center unaware that they serve beer there. The sound was just awful and I had to put cotton in my ears for the first two acts. When George Jones came on it was OK but there were people yelling and screaming all over the place. When in the world did they start selling beer?

Yes, it sure is a good thing that the Constitution trumps the Bible. Not all of us believe your old book is worth more than any other rag in the library, and laws that affect everyone should definitely not be influenced by it.

I agree 100% with headlights in the rain. It is clse to impossible to see the back of cars in the rain and fog, especially on the interstates where the road spray is really bad. Also,I think it's time that tickets are given to people who refuse to use their signal lights. If they don't know what that little lever is for, maybe they should learn hand signals. And please make sure you have left plenty of room when you pass someone before you cut in front of them.

It's bad enough that vases are being stolen from graves,but it is just as bad that their are scrap-metal dealers that would even buy them.If their wasn't a market for them,the crooks would have to steal something else.Not only should the thieves be put in jail but also the OWNERS of the scrapyards too.Go after the ones that are really making the money off of the metal&they will stop accepting stolen property&start calling the law when someone brings in that type of so-called scrap.Start at the top& you get rid of the little guy at the bottom.You already know they are the ones that are making the big bucks off of the metal,not the one going to jail for stealing them.I don't think the law about receiving stolen goods has changed.

What is really sad is that the people who are teaching the children of WV to drive feel that because alot of the new cars have day-time running lights,that's all that's needed when it's raining.They forget that they live in the mountains&with the rain you get fog&true I can see the front of you,but can I see the back of you.I had a driving instructer from Poca High tell me to mind my own business when I reminded him of this fact after I had almost rear-ended one of their cars during a bad rain.The same way you can get a ticket for no seatbelt,you should be ticketed for no lights in the rain.It's not about how good you can drive,but how good the people around you can drive.Teach your children to turn on their Headlights completely,not to just depend on daytime running lights.People need to be able to see the rear of your car the same as they need to see the front of your car.It is the Law.
