Rants and rave for July 4

Great job

“A belated congratulations to Carlie and Shane Courtoy for winning the AR award. Carlie, for her second year in a row, won over all the first-grade classes at Northside School. Shane, following in his sister’s footsteps, won over all the kindergarten classes at Northside School. Keep up your reading during the summer. Great job.”



Good service

“Thank you to Jeff and Michelle, managers at Sonny’s Barbecue House on 82 West for giving us a good customer relationship. When our order was messed up, we appreciated our meal. It was delicious.”



A great day

“I just saw on the news that Al Franken was ruled the winner of the senators race in Minnesota. Then seconds later it was reported that Wal-Mart is supporting President Obama’s health reform and news was also reporting that the stock market had its best gains in 10 years. It is about time to stop living in the past and move forward. What a great day!”



Time-saver

“With all the technology that is available why can't the Tift County Clerks Office get all the files and all cases on computer. What a time-saver this would be. ...Some smaller surrounding counties are computerized — Why not Tift County?”



Biggest Losers

Phil and Amy were amazing! I can’t wait for them to come back in 90 days, because they will see a lot less of me. I hope they do another challenge when they come back. So many of my friends want to go. I can’t stop talking about how amazing they are...”
