Sedline for Nov. 1
“I’m a Smith-Cotton senior and I think it is ridiculous that on our last game and Senior Night it is in Knob Noster. ... It may not be a huge deal to Rob Davis, but he doesn’t speak for everyone.”
“I wish they would look into putting artificial turf at Jennie Jaynes (Stadium). It has needed it for a long time. That way, when we run into a year like this, we would have our own home field to play on.”
“I know where you’re going with this Jennie Jaynes field being a ‘cow lot.’ How about just fixing it instead of building a new football field?”
“If the animal shelter is curious as to why nobody wants to adopt their dogs, I think the $75 to do so is a big reason.”
“This is to those disrespectful people that on Friday, Oct. 23, during one of Sedalia’s most distinguished teacher’s funeral, kept flying past people ... during the funeral procession. ... You were ignorant, rude and disrespectful. If this paper printed certain words I’d like to use, I’d tell you exactly how I feel.”
“The Sedalia Municipal Court has recently started posting all minor infraction information on the state court administrator Web site, called CaseNet. I hope everyone realizes that even if you get a parking ticket in the city, your name and personal information will be posted for all to see on the same Web site used to post information about felony charges.”
“Isn’t it ironic that the road and bridge department will run a help wanted ad for a laborer or truck driver, but not one for the top position of superintendent. Is anyone looking at what’s happening?”
“John Hansen did a terrific job of profiling the Sedalia Symphony. We really enjoyed the concert with the orchestra and the New Christy Minstrels.”
“I believe it is time for people to elect all new members of the county commission. All the way from dog catcher to presiding commissioner. It is time for a change.”
“We seem to be living in an age of unholiness. It is a time of moral chaos and uncertainty. We need to seek knowledge of what is right and good, and this also includes males.”
“Has anybody tried getting out of the new high school after school hours? It is impossible. You have to wait 15 to 20 minutes ... The district needs to open up the west entrance-exit so they can have traffic flowing smoothly out of both directions.”
“If we want to take our country back, we can do it at the next election by voting against the incumbents regardless of their politics. In our area, that would include (Rep. Ike) Skelton and (Sen. Claire) McCaskill.”
“When life gives you lemons, make orange juice and then sit back and have the world wonder how in the heck you did it.”
