Jim certainly represented

Mathias Baden — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 14:32:33 -0500

Jim certainly represented the county fair very well this morning (I was at the kickoff breakfast), and the accidental loudness of the speakers, which probably broadcast Jim's voice to who knows how many listeners, ought to raise awareness of the event. It did seem like there was a point at which a radio technician whispered to a fair board member, asking if it would be OK to turn down the speakers. But why not get a little publicity?

Being held accountable for even the smallest of miswritten items is extremely important to the credibility of your local newspaper, so thank you, swansonmej. You and others like you greatly assist the JI in building trust among its readers.

Anyone listen to WCCO at the scott co. fair this morning? There were times where I couldn't tell the difference between Mike Lynch's voice and Jim Terwedo's.

I would think that high of coverage on WCCO should help out attendance.

Thanks for the correction.

Mitt Romney has suspended his campaign for President. There are now 3 GOP candidates left in the race: McCain, Huckabee, and Ron Paul.

I was surprised that more people weren't at
the GOP caucus for St. Lawrence Township last night. There were 6 of us.

I have known Burdette Stief

Jason Allen — Tue, 29 Jan 2008 07:11:27 -0600

I have known Burdette Stief for many years. I worked for him doing all type of "farm" chores out at the drop zone location. I used to mow and would stop and watch everytime those planes would fly over. They had drop zone locations out in the middle of the pasture and would regually place that large, and I mean large pallet right in the middle of the target.

I also remember the time me and Burdette were in the barn doing some stall cleaning and we heard a large thump and the ground shook. We went outside the office area of the barn and found the pallet to be about 2 feet from the barn, I would say they missed the target on that one, but that might have been the only one they missed.

I do have to agree, it will be missed over Jordan. They have been flying for years, and it seemed everytime they came over Jordan, you stopped what you were doing and just watched.

I hope everyonce in awhile they take a little detour and fly over.....you know I just had an idea. For $2,800 a month, I have a little room in my backyard for a target.

Nuts. I'll miss them. They

Thom Boncher — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 14:33:20 -0600

Nuts. I'll miss them. They fly almost directly over my home, and I've always enjoyed seeing them. They also served as a reminder to me how lucky I am that our military is ready to protect our country.

934th and 133rd, keep the formation close, and Godspeed wherever you fly.

I like roundabouts. I used to live in Chaska near one and loved it. There were so many people who would drive it and not know how to use it and that is what makes them dangerous. The worst were people who would turn and drive them the wrong way.
