- What’s improper with individuals this time of 12 months? Unhealthy sufficient there may be apparently a brand new season referred to as “HalloweenChristmas” (ever heard of Thanksgiving?). How obnoxious is 24/7 Christmas music from the day after Halloween (hiya, 107.7)? I like, love, love Christmas, however for crying out loud, two months of Mariah Carey? Cease it!
- So a lady who served time in jail for manslaughter was elected to the Bangor, Maine metropolis council. I’m not positive who ticks me off extra, the politicians who don’t have any disgrace or the voters who don’t have any widespread sense.
- After “Chicago Hearth” was completed final night time and displaying scenes from the subsequent present, they introduced the subsequent one can be Jan. 7. New TV seasons begin later by a couple of weeks, finish a lot sooner and take breaks within the center. Years in the past, it was often a 26-week season. Guess it’s all cash immediately.
- I’m completely happy to see the one-cent coin relegated to the dustbin. However I’m ticked off that the 9/10 of a cent tacked on to the value of every gallon of gasoline has remained for greater than a century. Haven’t we advanced to the extent that nobody is fooled by that advertising and marketing gimmick?
- I solely get the paper on Thursdays and Sundays, so the options to Thursday’s crossword are misplaced to me. Many retired individuals in my neighborhood have the identical Sentinel subscription I do. The puzzles are the most effective a part of the paper. Please cease ruining it.
- I want I may hearken to my favourite radio station within the morning and never hear so many out-of-breath, baby-talking pop singers. It’s like fingernails on a chalkboard to listen to them. Sure, I mute!
