Page 2 Sedline entries, April 1 - July 27

“Would somebody please take on Charter cable? Shouldn’t we have a choice? It’s really outrageous.” (March 31-April 1)

“I might be giving away a $1 million idea here, but this town really needs an actual cab company.” (April 2)

“We know who is shooting the rabbits and squirrels inside the city limits. You can run but you cannot hide. There is an ordinance against this, and we will prosecute.” (April 3)

“You know, I really appreciate your Sedline and I know that a lot of people read it. It opens people’s eyes to what is going on and it is a lot easier than writing a letter. I’d like to see more funny things.” (April 4)

“Centennial Park really needs to get the baby swings back so I can start taking my kids over to that park because I live in that area.” (April 5)

“I think every morning when the Sedalia trash truck parks on the side street next to Hardee’s ... I think they need to pull into the parking lot so they are not blocking traffic. It is such a pain in the heinie every morning to try to go around the trash truck. If they want to eat, they can pull into the parking lot and not block traffic.” (April 7)

“When I was talking about not having anyplace to sit down and rest at the State Fair Community College walking track, I meant the walk track that is outdoors.” (April 9)

“It’s really sad. The former upper middle class, now the higher poor class, cannot afford to pay $20 for a meal for the revitalization meeting of the old JCS. $20 is just too steep.” (April 10)

“(The council voted) to approve $190 million to hire an architect for a fire station we don’t even need in the first place, besides the new fire truck. C’mon, Sedalia, wake up.”

“The United States flag in front of the U.S. Bank on the west end of town sure is shredded. Nice if they’d replace it with a nice new one.”

“How does the Welcome Wagon club obtain new members? Or is that organization just made up of all the old Welcome Wagon people?”

“Hopefully when Otterville hires a new superintendent and principal, they won’t show favoritism.” (April 16)

“Sedline has become nothing but a tabloid.” (April 17)

“The Voter ID is the best thing they ever had in the world ... for voting. They go to a nursing home and have people vote, they can take a picture of them there and they can be identified on that picture there. ... Voter ID, time is long overdue. I would vote for it in a second.” (April 18)

“I just don’t understand where the city gets all this money to cut loose on.” (April 19)

“I guess Charter enjoys upsetting people with all their changes. Why didn’t they make this change when they made all their other changes?” (Apr. 20)

“I received a six-carnation corsage in 1948 for my black strapless formal gown for the Smith-Cotton dance. It was gorgeous. I wonder if the flowers cost 50 cents each.” (April 21)

“It sounds to me like Coach Mays needs to start coaching and stop throwing his players under the bus.” (Apri 23)

“Well, naturally, the Buffett Rule is not going to fly with the Republicans. That’s one of the reasons they are as rich as they are.” (April 24)

“Why didn’t the city’s public works director address the drainage problem at Third and Ohio when the streetscape project was going on? It seems like it would have been a lot cheaper to fix the problem when the street was already torn up.” (April 25)

“If the GOP thought that the fairness of taxing the richer people in the country was a drop in the bucket to help out on budgeting, why are they considering a smaller drop in the bucket of cutting the food stamp program for a man who is trying to put food on his table instead of diamonds and pearls around the necks of his wife and children?” (April 26)

“Cats like soft places to sleep, like clean clothes in a laundry basket. I was in a hurry yesterday unloading my car with groceries, including my fresh loaf of bread. Well this morning, I discovered my mashed bread.” (April 27)

“(Richard) Parkhurst hit the nail on the head (April 19) ... when he said, ‘Is everybody just blabbering about nothing and not being aware of what is going on around them?’ That is absolutely right, 24/7.” (April 30)

“After observing one of the Habitat houses ... with the windows knocked out, large holes kicked in the sheet rock, I would hope this doesn’t happen to more of these homes.” (May 1)
