Orchids to …

• Batman at All Saints Apartments, once again our hero!

• the good folks at B&B Plumbing for their timely response, acumen, professionalism and exceptional customer service to repair a water heater.

• those who installed the lights in the trees on Washington Street! Our downtown is a wonderland!

• Dr. Wagner, Chelsea Spartz, their support staff and all the nurses in the cancer center treatment room at CRH, a heartfelt thank you for your skills, your kindness and everything you do for us, from Chris and Fred Hales.

• the person in the white pickup truck at McDonald’s on State Road 46 for paying our breakfast food order on Wednesday, we will pay it forward.

Onions to …

• the meeting leaders who fail to show any concern about putting teachers back into the classroom.

• those considering it a plausible and sensible idea to bring children back into schools during the worst wave of COVID-19 cases.

• those who insist children are asymptomatic: where is the discussion on how to keep the adults and other students informed, safe, and healthy while teaching and learning in a possible infected environment?

• those contributing more than $200 million for election challenge legal expenditures but didn’t read the fine print only to discover that less than 5% of that was actually used for that purpose.

• the federal elected official for his “art of the deal” trade deficit of more than $100 billion dollars than when he took office in 2016.

• opinionated, negative people.

• the federal elected official who right before our eyes with the tacit approval of his political party is trying to steal the election.

• the leadership of the political party who are not standing up to say the federal elected official’s words are untrue.

• city elected officials who keep spending money on flower pots and benches.

• the federal elected official supporters who are still drinking his Kool-aid.

Happy Birthday to …

• Tony Beach, from John, Leta, Joyce and Donna.
