Orchids to
the great article by Casey Smith discussing the deplorable continued decline of Indiana high school graduates that go on to college or university, made worse by state policies.
the Park Theatre in North Vernon for their free summer movies for children.
Onions to
the continuous attacks on free speech and freedom of the press by the “leader” of this nation, his supporters, and key politicians.
the elected official who is now accusing a former president of treason based on his trumped-up charges.
all the pastors and members who’ve made a mockery of their religion by their silence while Israel massacres thousands of women and children.
broken campaign promises, just two of which are ending the Ukraine war in one day and releasing the politically-charged list.
burning millions of dollars worth of contraceptives rather than distributing them, as was planned, or even selling them to not-for-profits.
the Ivy League university that just submitted again to the elected official’s vindictive anti-DEI campaign.
expanding conflicts, increasing cost of living, massive retaliatory witch hunts making people afraid to even open their mouth six months into his imperial presidency.
the youth activities/sports facility that, after 75 years and millions of dollars in yearly donation support, has no air conditioning or at least ceiling fans in the gym area.
the county office that needs to have someone who knows what they’re doing.
all the liars on the left lawyering up.
individuals who lose their company millions of dollars, yet complain when they are fired.
Happy Birthday to
Jimmy Baker, from your friends at Eagle Group Outfitters.
