Feedback: Drugs, cost of food need worry, not smoking in public

Why don't people concern themselves with things that are the real problem. Like lost souls

Dear Ed,

I truly understand people's concern about smoking but in this day and time we have a lot more to worry about.

How about the drugs in this town, the cost of gas, the cost of food to mention a few.

Feedback: Another use for perfect Adair Co. tomatoes

About: Perfect tomato sandwich

To ColumbiaMagazine.com

You all are blessed with the best tomatoes. I recommend tomato pie, it sounds bizarre but is so delicious. There are many variations of recipes but I think they are all similar, tomatoes, cheese, basil and in a pie shell.

s/Chele

Thanks. Here's a tomato pie recipe by somebody who calls herself Paula Deen: Click Here, though we don't know whether to recommend any cook who doesn't know how to spell the last name "Dean," as every Adair Countian who made it past the tar baby knows.

Feedback: It's a Mashed Potato Tower

About: Hot air balloon over Cranmer

To ColumbiaMagazine.com

We always called that thing the mashed potato tower, because since Cranmer had mashed potatoes almost every day, they must have had a storehouse somewhere on campus with an endless supply! Not that I'm complaining - that was one of my favorite things.

Kelli Bonifer: Caring for your wooden deck

By Kelli Bonifer, Adair County Extension Agent for Family and Consumer Sciences

A wooden deck can be an attractive addition to a home offering additional entertaining space during the year's warmer months. Decks can also be a major investment that with a little care can remain looking good for years.

It doesn't take much work to keep your wooden deck looking good. Regularly remove dirt, mildew, and tannin (plant) stains to help wood last and look better longer.

Feedback: Writer says restaurant smoke drives off tourists

LOCAL HEALTH ISSUE

Holy cow, Ed!

I wanted feedback, but wow! Comparing a smoking ban with communism? I suppose a mandated speed limit, or environmental protection laws and immigration laws are communist actions?

Give me a break.

No one is telling you not to smoke, just don't subject the rest of us to it. Why do you need to smoke while you're eating--while I'm eating.

Feedback: The COF comments on views of poet

About: POET on SMOKING

To ColumbiaMagazine.com

I agree totally with the poet but since some would use this as an argument to ban smoking outside (as an earlier post suggested) then a logical extension derived from driving along the beautiful highways and byways of Adair should also lead to a ban on take out food orders from all restaurants and delis as well as a ban on any entity allowing canned beverages to be removed from the premises.

I fail to see how the fact that there are polluting slobs and jerks amongst us, some who smoke and some who don't, has any bearing on rather someone without any financial interest in a business should be able to dictate how that owner presents his wares to the public.
