I wish Valdosta and Lowndes would call a truce and stop the childish games about the ticket allotments for the Winnersville Classic game. Valdosta's visitors side should all go to Lowndes, as that side is much smaller than their home side. Lowndes should allot the same amount of tickets that Valdosta has on their visitor side, leaving a few more for Lowndes fans on the visitor side since their stadium is larger on the visitor side.
Oh, ranter — I just love how "gangs and drugs" go hand-in-hand with "liberalism" in our public schools. I could argue that narrow-mindedness and self-righteousness go hand-in-hand with conservatism.
What's going on, Lowndes County Schools? My child loses his gifted teacher down in Lake Park last year. And now this year, at Lowndes Middle, you move the gifted teacher into another position? My child needs a good education and stability, too.
Smokers, please stop throwing your cigarette butts out onto the road. If you don't want them in your car, what makes you think people want them on the street or in the grass? To the female driver of the grey Lexus on North Valdosta Road: Shame on you for throwing out your butts.
Where is the "Professionalism" of the Lowndes County Public Works Department? I can’t believe the Recycling Lot attendants had to read in the paper today they may not have a job come the first of the year. Isn't it their duty to inform their employees of the possible loss of their jobs? Some may need to start looking for other employment.
City construction workers on River Street: Thank you so much for starting work at 10 p.m.! Sleep is overrated, and nothing is more soothing than the sound of drills and grinding metal!
Law or no law, it makes as much sense for me to drive my car on a bike lane as it does for a cyclist to ride their bike on a busy city street.
You can always justify to yourself why you did something but if it's wrong you know it deep down inside. Wrong is wrong no matter how you explain it to yourself.
I’m so tired of Lowndes County Public Works dragging ditches and cutting residents’ phone lines. Please stop dragging ditches. Or get qualified workers to drag the ditches.
Rave to Linda and Ivey Jr. for a successful yard sale for the Lions Club. Thanks to everyone who came and made a donation for this cause.

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!
