voices Perturbed By Poo
Dear Editor: I have been walking my dog at Wood Ibis Park for many years and for the past three years I have noticed that someone, first with little green doggy bags, now blue ones, has been disposing of them in the plastic bag holder placed there for people without a bag to get one for themselves. It is obviously not a doggy poop bin and probably contaminates the clean bags placed there for everyone’s use. Hopefully the culprit will see this message and stop doing it. As for me, I check it everyday and remove the offending bags with doggy poop in them. Also the owner must have a small dog, because these are small bags. – Pat Dunham
Good Work, Gabber
Dear Editor: I want to tell you how very much I’m enjoying the new Gabber format! The series on school integration has been so informative. I am enjoying the artist highlights as well. Keep up the good work! – Paulette Szlivko
