Ever so often, a completely anonymous writer deserves attention This is a provocative item, from one who stands four-square with the wets. We're censoring some of the naughtier words. (Couldn't decide on 'Crapola'.) It's posted even though it's anonymous because there are elements in what she/he has to say which are relevant to some current issues facing Columbia/Adair County today. Perhaps there some changes for the better here, perhaps not. You'd have to decide. If you remember this one concept, it is that there is no improvement except in change - though that comes only when principled integrity is used by those who remember that they can do their jobs only when they don't do things to keep their jobs. -CM From Out of State, from Anonymous I'm not sure which amuses - and (censored. CM) me off the most: the dimwitted stiffnecks who know in their heart of hearts and soul of souls that going legally wet is the end of civilization as we know it and that it's a certain road to purgatory (or worse) for anyone within, oh, say, a 75 mile radius), or the pie-in-the-the-sky nimrods who are equally convinced that going legally wet is the answer to more questions than a smart man can think up in a day's worth of skull sweat. Let me hasten to say that I stand four-square with the wets (none of this namby-pamby toe-in-the-water "moist" crapola; either dive deep or stay the hell away from the water). I do believe going wet (or (censored), at least moist, if the faint of heart simply must have their way), can add a modest boost to a local economy without rending asunder the fabric of polite society or creating a perpetual drunken crime spree by the populace at large. And too, going wet would put a slight dent in the bootleg traffic. (Somebody's gotta, and someone always will, supply the underage folks and the Sunday thirsters.) A favorite joke: What's the difference between a Baptist and Methodist? The Methodist will speak to you in the liquor store. As far as the druggies.... Well, Ed, old buddy, let me tell you a story: A friend of mine grew up on a farm over in Edmonson County, and this friend learned and passed on to me one of the greatest pieces of practical advice I ever got.
