VALDOSTA —
Great article on the upcoming Toy Ride sponsored by the Outback Riders of Valdosta. I appreciate what you do for this community and look forward to this event every year!
The Nativity performed by A Time To Dance Performing Arts Studio was an incredible and very moving show. Awesome job to Patricia Nealey who directed and to all the dancers who did an outstanding job.
To the person questioning why fire hydrants are running, it has to be done to maintain the quality of the water in the system by drawing the chlorine into areas of relatively low usage to keep bacteria from forming in the water. Chlorine residual levels are mandated by the state.
Amazing! I called the County Department of Public Works today to find out when additional information will be provided to citizens about what we needed to do, and when, to be in compliance with the new solid waste removal ordinance approved by the Commissioners on 12/11/2012. The response was: “We have nothing to do with that!” Huh?
To view the Christmas Light Show in Madison just travel down Madison Highway from Valdosta towards Madison. The light show will be on the right-hand side once you go through the little town of Hanson. You really can’t miss it!
Thanks to the Georgia Department of Transportation for finally picking up the trash on Madison Highway. It’s amazing how many people openly throw their trash out while riding right in front of you. That is a very well-traveled highway with folks coming from Florida. We ought to take a little more pride in the Lowndes County area.
You ever notice how often you hear, “There are some good people left”? There are awesome, loving people all over this area who would give the very shirt off of their backs to help others. Sure, we have our share of jerks, but this city is full of wonderful people. Blessed to live here.
The movie "Lincoln" was great! Isn’t it interesting to know that Lincoln was a Republican!
Thanks to Barbara George at Probate Court. She is so helpful. Thank you, Ms. George.
Valdosta High School should not promote PC: Because a high-production movie like “Lincoln” is well-made or well acted, does not mean that Lincoln was not a mass murderer and tyrant.
Maybe you should try delivering mail before you criticize the person providing you with this service.

How long is it going to take AT&T telephone and/or Mediacom cable to do something about the vines and bushes growing over the cable lines at Mt. Zion Church Road and Academy Acres. The lines are pulled down where a 6 foot person can touch them. We won’t have any cable service or phone service if something is not done about this pretty soon.

Alright Sister's Pizza, how am I supposed to cheat on my diet if you stay closed! The other pizza places are too far from downtown for my lunch hour and are a bit too greasy.

I am thankful I chose to stick with Deep South Sanitation. Our trash is always picked up right on time and he never leaves anything behind. After all my neighbors' trash is "picked up," often items are strewn by the road and the cans are either left in the road or fallen in or beside the road. Get rid of the big company and move to Deep South, if you want true customer service!

Over 150 applicants applied for the handful of teaching jobs in Lowndes County. Plus, almost every single paraprofessional is a certified teacher who has been waiting patiently, “doing their time.” And, Lake Park Elementary hires a teacher who has quit, not once, but twice before. The "good ole' boy" network at its finest.

Have we progressed to the point where we are arguing about gay marriage? I thought the South was still outraged about blacks being able to marry whites! Hmm...We will catch up to the rest of the world eventually.

I found the cartoon referencing Tim Tebow's Christianity on Thursday's editorial page very offensive. I can agree that many people are out for what God can do for them, not how they can serve God, But I do not see any evidence of that attitude or life style in Tim Tebow's life. Time will tell.

Good riddance to the doctor unable to take Medicaid patients?! Do you work for free? I bet you go to work and expect a paycheck. Why would the doctor be any different? Blame our fearless leaders, not the doctors. And you are WAY out of line questioning whether that person is Christian or not. Sounds like the person who thinks preachers should work for free.

Amazing: Even a judgmental person like yourself can’t even bother to get the facts straight before you criticize something. Jason Collins did an extremely brave thing by coming out in a world filled with people such as yourself. Words of Wisdom: Leave the judging to God.

Raves to Mrs. Kay and Mrs. Sylvia at Cook Primary! They have the best behaved class and are the best teachers in that school!

To all who use Coleman Road as a short cut between Old Highway 41 North and North Valdosta Road, please remember the speed limit is 35, not 65. Tailgating me isn’t going to make me go faster. Remember, it’s our neighborhoods, not your short cut!
