Orchids to

Charlene Wood for taking time to show people the real Columbus way.

Chief Justice Loretta Rush and Justice Christopher Goff for dissenting from the ridiculous slap on the wrist reprimand to the attorney general.

those people who, based on the last four weeks, know who the true “threats to democracy” are.

Jay Ambrose for telling us the truth.

Onions to

the obnoxiously loud and disturbing Ford Mustang racing all over the north end of town and no law enforcement to stop it.

candidates promising things they have no individual control over.

no aid for Ukraine in the war against Russia.

the grocery store that permits the walker to pack groceries putting fragile things on the bottom and heavy things on the top.
