Dear Editor: Please help, I am a Detroit Tigers fan who is being driven crazy by Rod & Mario, the two guys who broadcast the games. What can I do? (Besides playing the banjo, which causes my wife to side with Rod.) I watched a few innings of a Tigers game vs. Boston in mid-May, and heard Rod say: Boston's relief pitcher is a "left-handed lefty." Brandon Inge "used all of his hands" to get a hit. And Boston relied on its relief "corps" (yes, he pronounced it the way it's spelled). Oh yeah, and there was another "His contact-to-damage ratio is off the charts." Can you help?

Dear Editor: I know first, there was Jean and Joan making
records and playing in local beer gardens. Mike came next with the
infamous "Mac & The Lost Cause". You and Jerry
headed up the Brad Savage & The Cockroaches, along with stints
in the band by Mike, Larry and Danny. Finally, I also recall
Sanxuary's big hit call Speechless. Please tell me... Are there
any more McCarty's that have played in a band and recorded music?

ED NOTE: Funny you should ask because I was just going through
an old photo album and recalled one of the best accordion bands in
the tri-county area was call Schmel-Cartys. The Schmelzers that
were left out of bands joined the McCartys left out. Along with other friends were
Uncle Jack, Aunt Margaret, Rick & Dennis McCarty. GOOD TIMES! |

Dear Editor: What do you have to do to get on the Podcast? I'm more famous
than the people you interview. -Harry Seward
ED NOTE: Just to check, I Googled your name, and yes, I did find out
that you are much more famous than Bald Seward who was going to appear
next week.

Like most folks in this country, I have a job. I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes & the government distributes my
taxes as it sees fit. In order to get that paycheck, in my case, I am required to pass a random urine test (with which I have no problem).
What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test.
So, here is my question: Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check because I have to pass one to earn it for them?
Please understand, I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I do, on the other hand, have a problem with helping someone sitting on their BUTT----doing drugs while I work.
Can you imagine how much money each state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check?
I guess we could call the program "URINE OR YOU'RE OUT"!
P.S. Just a thought, all politicians should have to pass a urine test too!
