• To the person who was so horrified at people eating opossum a hundred years ago: Squirrels, opossum and rabbits were common fare at that time. Also, they are uninformed. An opossum is not a rodent. A squirrel is a rodent. An opossum is a marsupial, and doesn’t taste too bad.

• Ron Paul supporters are committed, or at least they should be.

• If Mitt Romney is looking for a running mate, there is a former governor in Alaska who is looking for a job. And she is very pretty, too.

• It’s my feeling that all tax money spent should represent the majority of the taxpayers. I don’t think that tax money spent on airports and golf courses represents the majority of the taxpayers. If these two items are not self-supporting, they should be closed.

• If the baggy britches are banned, the city should also ban these heifers around Griffin who keep wearing Daisy Dukes.

• To the man who said the My Two Cents encouraged him to wear women’s clothes, have long hair, and wear earrings and get tattoos, that’s really sad. You shouldn’t let a newspaper column influence you in that way.

• I saw Justin Bieber on TV recently, and he was wearing an earring in both ears.

I am so embarressed now more than ever to live in Griffin. A squrriel is a rodent as is a Possum, it's why they do run across the road, and why they get hit. It's a marsupial as well, most rodents and tree-fairing animals are. Cripey! I know that Griffin is a step up from backward, but god, I think we all stepped back down.

On the docket for Tuesday, Jan.31 City Commission Meeting: Consider the reconstruction of the City of Griffin Municipal Golf Course greens by Champion Turf Farms for an amount not to exceed $81,000.00; approve a Resolution to amend the budget accordingly; and approve the transfer of funds to the Golf Course Operating account from the Golf Course Escrow account. If you care about your money being spent on this you need to call and email your city commissioner AND show up at this meeting on Tuesday! Do not let any more money be wasted on this golf course.

Did anyone who attended the meeting for Program Challenge this week become offended by the attitude of the superintendent? He was downright rude to one man. He works for us and needs to stop taking things personally.Parents should be able to voice opinions. The PC center should not be closed. Instead, get rid of some of the extra high paying people and pay for the center. One person's salary could keep the children in a good environment instead of tutoring other students.

I would like to know what you mean in the last sentence of your statement, "One person's salary could keep the children in a good environment instead of tutoring other students". What do you mean by "tutoring other students"?

Griffin Daily News doesn't post comments if they appear to be politically incorrect.

Spalding County is charging $100 to euthanize a dog.

I paid SouthSide Animal Hospital $14 to put our dog asleep and dispose of the body.

Well this $100.00 fee is so you won't come in and this is how they get out of doing anything.
