  Recently, it was stated that Obama has made some mistakes. He not just made mistakes, he is the most incompetent, worthless idiot we have had in the office since this country was born, with the possible exception of Buchanon. Lest anyone think this is a racist remark, my personal preference for the next president […]

  I remember the first name of the man who had the bakery on 3rd Street; it was Carl Collins (if my memory is correct) and for a short time he had a small restaurant, which I think was next to Moscato’s shoe repair.  My grandmother, Ruth Hodge worked there.  Sam Smith should remember this […]
