The McCarty Metro - Sound Off

ED NOTE: Send me your questions or comments on the form or via email and I will answer them.

My recent Metro seemed to be working blue. First the podcast featured the annoying sound cicadas make and then the front page of the Metro showed the Green Giants' niblets. What gives? -Pru Dish

ED NOTE: Ask my brother Larry to do his impression of a cicada. It is quite entertaining. I didn't know cicadas swore. As for the Jolly Green Giant. It was not his niblets you saw, but rather his pea pod. There is about a 8" difference.

Is there going to be a Cockroach reunion this 4th of July? I heard Steve is throwing a big 4th of July party and I may make the trip up to see the 30 year reunion show. -Larz

ED NOTE: No cockroaches, but maybe we can coax some of those cicadas to make an appearance.

What is the definition of "dry" as it pertains to a wedding in the South?

ED NOTE: I think it actually means it didn't rain during the ceremony, unlike the buckets pouring the morning of and the morning after. If you are referring to the reception, then I have no clue as to what you are referring to.

I was sitting here this morning drinking my coffee and opened up the McCarty Metro just to enter my vote for my favorite Monopoly piece. I perused over the other items of interest you have listed at the bottom of the screen. I decided to read your Final Thought to see what you had on your mind this month. It really touched my heart. I've heard so many stories from Larry about your dad and feel like I know him. I did not, however, realize today is the anniversary of his passing. First of all let me extend to you and your brothers my condolences for your loss. I know what you mean about looking at a picture and, for a brief moment, memories are rekindled of days gone by...the stories, bad jokes, laughter, the way things used to be. -Gina

ED NOTE: Thank you Gina for you kind words. It was a pleasure to finally meet you.
