SPEAKOUT
THIS IS for the individual in Jackson who threw the stuff and killed the grass at the senior citizens home. All your neighbors know who you are, and you know you are.

God knows who killed the grass

Bicyclists hogged the highway
I JUST read a comment about the bicyclists out on Highway 177. This person said somebody got hurt. We didn't know that until I read this comment. My husband works at P&G. He came home a couple of weeks ago on the day they were out there doing that big from-park-to-park bicycle run. He was pretty aggravated. He said the bicyclists were all over the road. They had the entire road blocked, and he couldn't get through. He had to stay behind them, and they would not move over. Bicyclists are supposed to follow the rules of bicycling on the road. They're not supposed to drive five, six, seven across and block the lanes. He said that's exactly what happened. My husband is a calm, mild-mannered person. When he came home he said he'd never seen anything like it by any bike riders. These were adults, not children. If they're going to ride their bikes for such an excursion, then they need to follow the rules and not expect everybody else to cater to them. They might want to keep that in mind next time.
