- Clinton Opinions - Bank Spies - In Time Of Need - Concrete Canoes - Woman Of The Year Clinton Opinions Editor, Times-Union: I know I'm pushing my luck by being almost partisan in my thinking (I don't think, though, that I'll be hit by the "hit squads") but there is just too much happening. Reading the Jan.26, 1999, Times-Union and listening to the U.S.Senate votes on "Dismissal of Articles" and "To Hear Witnesses" gave rise to my sharing again of my lofty thoughts.
Editor, Times-Union:I am sending a small donation to the Gideons in appreciation for all they do.

Editor, Times-Union:Thanks to Harold Kitson for your recent letters. Keep 'em comin'!

Editor, Times-Union:Thanks so much ...For only the second time in my adult life, I am not ashamed of my country.
Editor, Times-Union:Please define hog management to me! Some people go the college for this, and I guess I don t understand.
Editor, Times-Union:God has showered America with more than 200 years of blessings.
Editor, Times-Union:As a long time admirer of the late, great historian Howard Zinn, and owner of a cherished copy of “A People’s History of the United States,” I was sickened by Mitch Daniels’ censorship of this wonderful book.
Editor, Times-Union:How many of you Republicans out there are tired of your Republican leaders (i.e. local party leaders, town council, State Senators and Representatives, U.S. Congressman and Senators, etc.) just giving us lip service for their so-called conservative beliefs?
Editor, Times-Union:They say you cannot fix "stupid." However, you can educate yourself to know the truth.
Editor, Times-Union:There's an old saying which goes: "If winter comes, can spring be far behind?" Well, we've had winter, and spring is here. Let's hope this nice spring weather will continue.
Editor, Times-Union:I am a union worker, and in the morning I'll get up and go to my job, but there are thousands of people that do not have a job.
Editor, Times-Union:I just couldn't take it any longer. Ms. Torpy's latest attack finally did it.
Editor, Times-Union:There is still hope for our democracy.Monday, a somber and angry President Bush chastised a system that doesn't allow those who are willing to serve to do so.
Editor, Times-Union:In response to Harold Kitson's letter:Neo-con Economic Policy for Dummies;
Editor, Times-Union:Yesterday brought memories of a trip with Dad to Cedartown, Ga., to buy a new car (25 miles from our home). We paid cash for it ($325). It was a Ford V-6, 1933, with what we later called “suicide” doors (because they opened from the front). It was no surprise that 1933 was the only year “Henry” made em that way (or the weak V-6 engine with small cylinders).
Editor, Times-Union:I hope Times-Union readers have noticed what has occurred within the pages of the newspaper.
I’m sure you have heard the term “regionalism”. It is simply the combination of several cities, towns, and counties working together towards a cooperative economic development strategy.
Editor, Times-Union:I just wanted to pass on some possibly unknown information regarding Medicare payments (or lack thereof) when hospitalized.
Editor, Times-Union:It was disheartening to read the 11/3&4 News Views to learn you have “pretty much given up on the notion of our county ever returning to the principles on which it was founded.”
As the high school and college basketball regular season games come to a close and teams prepare themselves for their respective tournaments, I am reminded of my seven-year stint as a basketball manager. And, more importantly, I am reminded that there are more important things in life than winning. My first three years of being a manager were with the Warsaw Men's Basketball Team and the last four were with the Butler University Men's Team.Both teams were successful and I have three championship rings, pieces of basketball net and newspaper clippings to prove it.So I know what winning feels like, as well as losing.But, again, there are more important things in life than either one of those.
- Sesquicentennial ThanksEditor, Times-Union: - Late Fireworks - Veterans Series - Hochstetler Remembered Sesquicentennial ThanksEditor, Times-Union: The grand celebration marking the 150th year of Warsaw is over.There is not enough room in this paper to allow me to adequately thank all those persons who worked so diligently to make the celebration a success, so I will not try, but will only express a deep, heartfelt "Thank you" to all who volunteered.
Editor, Times-Union:Thank you, Times-Union, for the list of downtown businesses that have signed a petition against a downtown homeless shelter.
