• To all of you, like myself, who like to hold yard sales or garage sales, best go to the polls and vote in new city and county commissioners because the present ones are going to try and cut down on these sales by making you pay a fee for a license to hold these sales.

• It seems like you have to be gay to get a good job nowadays. Anderson Cooper and Don Lemon have the best jobs at CNN, and many movie stars and famous singers are gay. I guess I was unlucky to be born heterosexual.

• Does the “force-fed” new airport, with state or federal funding — that taxpayers end up paying — seem a bit much now that we are $17 trillion in debt?

• To the person who referred to people as barefooted and living on a dirt road if they oppose T-SPLOST. It’s sad to say, but this is the mentality of someone who blindly follows what they are told and is unable to think for themselves. We hicks in the county choose to have our say when we vote.

• Airbus is going to build a plant in Mobile, Ala. It would be so nice to wake up one morning and see on the front page of the GDN that new employment opportunities are coming to our area. Instead, all I read about is the endless stories of high unemployment, a new airport, SPLOST, overpaid school administrators, deplorable high school dropout rates, and golf carts in downtown.

• The My Two Cents comments are interesting. However, reading about the local armed robberies, thefts, home invasions and other crimes in Griffin makes one wonder about the importance of issues involving golf cart use, smoking bans in our parks, doggy waste, etc., when it appears that Griffin has some serious issues involving law enforcement and citizen safety.
