• I am getting tired of all these snotty comments about senior citizens in My Two Cents. Wait until you get old. Better yet, I hope you all die an early death.

• The Griffin-Spalding County School System undoubtedly has flaws and needs improvement. However, comments and articles concerning the swimsuit comment by Dr. Jones have little or no relevance to improvement of our schools. Students see swimsuits all the time on vacations or even around their pools. Let’s hear constructive comments about our school system.

• The scum who steal flowers off graves should be prosecuted and burned in hell.

• So, it’s OK for Barack Obama to use a plane that costs $66,000 an hour to fly to make campaign speeches? This president has spent more time flying than trying to correct what is wrong with our country. The more he opens his mouth, the more he sticks his foot in it. If you don’t believe me, then you never read what he has done and what he wants to do to the U.S.

• I would bet that the My 2 Cents contributors and readers are also Ronda Rich readers.

• Is Ronda Rich single? I have a friend who would like to get a date with her.

• If Six Flags decides to expand, they could go to the industrial park.

• I want to congratulate a couple of sports teams. The girls’ basketball team at St. George’s Episcopal School won third place in the finals in Macon. The boys’ basketball team was undefeated during the season and won first place in the finals in Macon. The playing was amazing, but most importantly there was great sportsmanship and teamwork.

• I hear Sports Illustrated is considering coming to Spalding County for its next swimsuit edition.

• I think it makes perfect sense to spend $13,000 for signs to guide visitors to sites. There are so many sites in Griffin tourists would want to see, especially the General Griffin statue.

• I hear the school board is going to approve an official theme song — “Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini.”

To the people who bust slack "Do ya work?" If so ya must have a desk job, cause you need your hands to hold your pants up. There are stores in Griffin that possibly have your correct size pants.....I don't like to be riding thru Griffin looking at your boxers.. So pull your pants up and tighten that belt!

granddaughter brought home a letter from the school that wants students to invent something to sell at school, sell it at school, make money for the school, their math, social studies and other grades will reflect how they do, i pay taxes for their school, i dont think that they should be involved in such to make money and have grades reflect how they do, i am on social security and raising grandkids, tell me how can i afford to buy products to make this work so her grades dont suffer and she is only 9 years old

Try calling the principal or counselor. There are rules, I think, that do not allow the school to make you spend money like this. Those were the laws in GA when my children were in school.

For those people who are still upset by the Dr.Jones swimsuit issue:

The basic rules for administrators should be respect others, don't say it if it is not nice or professional, tell the truth(don't manipulate it), remember you have to EARN the respect of people, and be kind.

Sort of like kindergarten rules.
