RH Line humor
I'm finding more humor in the reporter hotline these days, actually more than the comic pages. So thank you for making my holidays happy.
School choice
Addressing the talk of Van Buren Elementary being closed because it's only running at 30 percent capacity, that's because we're not requiring the kids to go the school closest to where they live. That's the way I grew up. You had to go to the closest school. If they did that, require kids to go to the closest schools where they live, all the schools will be filled up, all the tax money would come back. Don't allow people to live in Loveland and go to school in Fort Collins. Our tax money will come back per student. Schools will fill up. We'll be fine.
Lovely columns
I just wanted to thank both Mike Foley and Jim Willard for their Christmas Eve columns in the Reporter-Herald. Both of them are lovely. Thank you.
Sober up
I'm confused. A caller called in about the Redman and said they've traveled to every state in the union to find other Indians. I don't believe that. You think ours is great, but then you call it an ugly piece of stuff that should be in front of a monastery. I don't think we have a monastery. I think you should sober up for 24 hours before you call the RH Line.
EPA administrators
Well absolutely the best news of the day in the Reporter-Herald on Monday is that over 700 ... administrators have resigned from the EPA in protest. Wow. It's about time we got rid of a lot of that wasted bureaucracy. I hope some of it can go someplace good, though. We need a lot of help with a lot of things, but that was not the place to spend the money.
