SENIOR

TIME TO TAKE CARE

I’ve been a volunteer fireman for over 25 years. Basically, I’m in my 60s so I can’t do it anymore. It’s a very dangerous occupation. I enjoyed doing it with my service to the community and to others in Delaware County. After talking to several friends and hearing coronavirus details and how people have passed away, especially those in their 50s and 60s, folks right now you don’t want to be in a doctor’s office. And the most important thing is you don’t want to hurt yourself. You don’t want to get burned on a grill.

CREAM OF THE CROP

It’s funny hearing all these people complaining about Nancy Pelosi and her ice cream but they don’t say anything about the Republican legislators who dumped their stocks before it all hit the fan with the coronavirus. They were more worried about their pockets than their constituents when they could have been proactive on a plan to combat the virus and the ensuing crisis it has caused us all.

M.F. FROM WESTBROOK

CHRIS SAID IT

For over a week, I have been searching for the words to tell Phil Heron how much he will be missed as editor of The Daily Times. Each day, I thought about it and the words I came up with seemed inadequate. Chris Friend’s column this week said it all. Thanks, Chris, I owe ya one.

S/ A BIG FAN OF PHIL

NOT A CLUE

See no clue, hear no clue, have no clue. To concur with “Susie from Spruce Street” one can lump in “JB” into that gaggle of fools. I envision they wake up, throw on their pearls for clutching throughout the day, pour a cup of coffee, go into their yards to make sure the “Hate has no place here” sign is intact, then promptly proceed to insult, insult, insult. Because the ideology of tolerance is the least tolerant. They come across as ac laughingstock, and look foolish. Must be hell having President Trump living rent free between your ears 24/7. Life is too short to be miserable at every turn. Hardy, har, hardly.

END OF THE LINE

When I was program chairman of the Rotary Club of Media, I would arrange for the weekly speakers. Being a subscriber to the Daily Times, I invited Phil Heron to speak and he graciously accepted. If I were to describe him in two words, they would be genuine and sincere. He delivered a very interesting talk on what is involved in running a newspaper. When I ask Phil what was the most difficult part of his job his answer was printing

the obituaries.

DEFINE ‘SMALL’

So it looks like another small business aid package is being worked on. Can this one actually be for small businesses? The last one went to multi-billion dollar companies. I never realized a company that made more than a billion dollars was small. Do you know how many middle class owned businesses could have been helped if just one multi-billion dollar company wasn’t bailed out? Neither do I, but we will never know now.

IT’S A WONDERFUL WORLD

I’d like to wish everybody a happy day. I got out in the lawn today did some lawnscaping and enjoyed beautiful blue skies. I hope everybody’s well and stays safe.

SERIOUS ON SAXER

UNBELIEVABLE

I’m calling about Nancy Pelosi and her $24,000 refrigerator and her freezer that’s filled with only designer ice cream. She realized that there are millions of people out of work and that there are millions of people trying to figure out how they’re going to feed their children the next day. Does she realize that everybody else in the country is quarantined? She had her family and they’re celebrating with her. She’s a meanspirited person. She really really is and you know, what some days she’s going to choke on that. Designer ice cream.
