He said he would have to stay being a waiter because he couldn\u2019t get a job in his field. These young men can\u2019t get a job because jobs require five years\u2019 experience. I know a young man who graduated from SUNY Broome, went on to a college several hours away to finish his degree in mechanical engineering. He drove back to Owego every weekend to work in a fast-food place to support himself. After four years, in May, and ready to graduate, the college said, \u201cOh no, you don\u2019t have the right courses, you must go another semester.\u201d He finished his degree and owed $20,000. He now drives down to a fast-food place looking over at one of the best corporations one could work for. He flips burgers year after year, and needs five years\u2019 experience in his field. Corporate, what are these young men to do?<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>I see in Berkshire they have a new junkyard. I was wondering, aren\u2019t the bylaws in Berkshire you must have a fence up if you have a junkyard to safeguard the community and an eyesore problem? Just asking for a friend.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Question. Can you get high or whatever marijuana does to you by breathing in second-hand marijuana? Just wondering.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Remember when people could smoke everywhere? \u201cOh, it\u2019s my right to be able to smoke here.\u201d It didn\u2019t matter about other people\u2019s lungs, the taste of the food, the health of the employees or whatever. COVID is the same thing. You think you have freedom, but it affects everybody else\u2019s health, environment, the businesses, our economy, and the whole world. Unfortunately we can\u2019t make you just stay outside because you have COVID or have decided not to be vaccinated. I personally think you should have to show vaccine status to get in anywhere to protect those who are doing the right thing, just like smokers are not allowed to just walk in anywhere and start smoking whatever they want.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s some things I\u2019ve observed at the Tioga Cemetery in Owego. First of all, there are potholes in the road and yet there\u2019s been a big pile of gravel there since spring. Why don\u2019t they shovel it into those holes? Secondly, there\u2019s been little or no weed eating. We\u2019ve done our own weed eating because stones have gotten so covered with grass. I think they need to have better care of the cemetery than this and somebody needs to be checking on it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Question for the Town of Owego people. What is being built over by the new Town Of Owego building?<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>To the Village of Owego mayor, etc., isn\u2019t there an ordinance in the village about run down homes? I would like to know the answer to that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>I would like to respond to the person who wrote about rights and the vaccine. People who choose not to receive the vaccine, that\u2019s their right; but the ones that did get the vaccine, that\u2019s also their right. So don\u2019t come into grocery stores, restaurants, or public places where you could infect others if you don\u2019t have your shots, and then say I respect your rights. What rights are you respecting? You are telling people who don\u2019t have shots they should never be allowed to go in public places because they might infect you? In case you didn\u2019t know it, hundreds of people have gotten COVID who have had both of their shots. I happen to be one of them. I wasn\u2019t as sick; I didn\u2019t die, but you can still get it whether you have a shot or not.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>I knew this was going to happen. People adopting dogs during the pandemic who were working from home and now returning to work and can\u2019t be bothered with their pet. The dog has served its purpose and is now back at the shelter, hoping once again to find his forever home. What a sad situation for these homeless animals. Their owners should be ashamed of themselves.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Why is it that a passenger in a vehicle gets charged with what is in the car when it isn\u2019t theirs. Is it New York State law that if no one claims the drug, everyone in the car gets charged; or is the law different here in Tioga County? Is it because of addiction problems that the&nbsp;county wants to send people to jail or prison instead of giving them help at a rehab? In prison it\u2019s easier to get drugs and to get addicted to drugs, making your addiction stronger; or you can become hooked on drugs. So maybe the&nbsp;county should help addicts instead of trying to put people behind bars or in certain categories because of their history in life. Big Rooster<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>You could pick up more people speeding on Marshland Road in Apalachin than you can on Route 434.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>In Europe the teachers unions and taxpayers work toward the common objective of \u201cto educate\u201d.&nbsp;In New York State all objectives of the teacher\u2019s union are 100% opposite that of the interests of students and taxpayers.&nbsp;The words \u201cto educate\u201d do not even appear in the 15,673 words of the OACSD teachers\u2019 union contract. Why does the OACSD Board of Education collect union dues when our teacher\u2019s union won\u2019t even agree to educate?&nbsp;Is it any surprise American public education once was number one in the world and is now only mediocre?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Unless you are a hermit, on any given day these diseases are active and you can be exposed via droplets breathed in: Flu (all its variants), rotavirus, adenovirus, tuberculosis, SARS, enterovirus, rhinovirus, strep, and Legionnaires disease. People have not been locked down in their homes nor have they shuttered businesses or schools. All have received medical protocols to deal with them, yet they have never gone away. COVID will become \u201canother\u201d one on the list. The protocol will improve and be enhanced as it mutates, much like the newest formula each season for the Flu. But the public needs&nbsp;to also become more proactive in taking personal care to stay healthy in order to be less susceptible and become a spreader. Just as you have learned to live with these other recognized \u201cgerm\u201d spreaders, so we will with this one. Life goes on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>On Lake Street there was a place that did painting lessons and also made custom frames. They are no longer there, and now there is a hemp place. The owners of the hemp place told us that they moved to Apalachin. Can anyone help me get in touch with the painting and frame folks? Leave any information in this column.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>I live right off of 38 in Berkshire and I constantly have to avoid cars, trucks, and junk being parked halfway in my road. If they got rid of junk they would have room to pull in and get off the road. Can anything be done about this?<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>What an amazing lack of history knowledge and empathy in this column. People are complaining about the New York City area getting aid&nbsp;after the Ida floods, and are forgetting about all the federal (FEMA) and New York State disaster aid our area got after the 2011 flood. Incomprehensible.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>A group was marching 13 miles to honor 13 service personnel killed in Afghanistan. While I admire their basic intent, please tell them they have another 2,487 miles to go to honor all those killed.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>In the Playbills for the OFA Musicals from 2000 and 2001, several students referred to performing in a play titled \u201cThe Toy Shop\u201d. Apparently done in 1998 or 1999. If anyone has any information (dates \/ program \/ photos) we\u2019d appreciate it if you could send it to&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:OAStage13827@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">OAStage13827@gmail.com<\/a>.&nbsp;Thanks from the History Keeper at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.Facebook.com\/OAStage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.Facebook.com\/OAStage<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Is there some way to give money to flood victims without using your name and address, which will end up on everyone\u2019s mailing list.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>To the person complaining about teachers having masters\u2019 degrees. A little bit of research would show you that in New York State teachers are required to obtain a masters degree.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>National Political Viewpoints<\/b><\/p>\n<p>About the new Texas abortion law that Governor Abbot is passing; there are no words for it. Abbot is not a woman, and he doesn\u2019t know why some women have no choice but to have an abortion. So many children will suffer from being born to some of the mothers. Also, women will go to back allies for an abortion, and some die. Men should not discuss it. It\u2019s not their body.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Isn\u2019t it just like a democrat &#8211; take what a republican says as your own and turn it around.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Who needs communists when you have democrats to pull America down?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>The Taliban now has more Black Hawk helicopters in Australia. Thanks Joe Biden.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Well, we got rid of Cuomo. Can we do the same with Biden? Let\u2019s get rid of him!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>For all you ignorant people out there that voted for Joe; that includes the dead people and the phony mail-in ballot people. We told you so. He has done nothing right.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>So now the communist news network, CNN, head of propaganda Don Lemon says we don\u2019t know if any Americans were left as hostages in Afghanistan. I suggest we send this Lemon to Kabul to investigate that statement. He would be very welcome there, I\u2019m sure.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>How many regulations, local laws, state laws and federal laws can we be held accountable for? It\u2019s in the millions, and who is going to count that high before they give up? Millions of these laws we are subject to. How do you stop them?<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>All you sanctimonious anti-abortion people out there should realize we are being overpopulated and you\u2019ve got millions of people coming across the border, they are going to get pregnant, and we are going to have millions of more people and your taxes are going to go up to support them. Your taxes will go up, and up, and up!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>This is directed to people who want Biden\u2019s resignation after 13 marines were killed recently. Yes, that is terrible. However, in 1983 under Reagan, a republican, 200 marines were killed in Lebanon, Beirut and nobody called for Reagan\u2019s resignation at that point. Let\u2019s ban together like we did in 1983.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Has anyone noticed that when we have a democratic president in the White House it is hard to find ammunition in the stores for sale? I heard it is put in a big warehouse and just stored there. This happened with the Obama administration also.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>All you Biden voters, I hope you\u2019ve got calluses on your knees from praying because prayer is about the only thing that\u2019s going to help us now after that mess that Biden has got us into.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Famous last words from Biden \u201cWe will not leave one American in Afghanistan.\u201d His buddy Schumer said, \u201cAll Americans who wanted to leave have been evacuated from Afghanistan.\u201d Now Joe and his comrades are desperately trying to change the subject from Afghanistan to anything else. Don\u2019t look now Joe, but many who survived 9-11 are telling you not to attend ANY, that\u2019s ANY of the 9-11 ceremonies. The buck stops somewhere else, Biden.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>As I was driving around lately and I noticed a sign in someone&#8217;s yard that spouted&nbsp;reasons&nbsp;to not hold elections.&nbsp;Really? Do you truly not want democracy in this country?<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>A lot of Democrats complain about Fox News. But the Fox News shows that I watch are all filled with joking, laughter, and smiles. On the other hand, on MSNBC and CNN you have grim, long, angry faces. Why do you watch that? Sadly you will never be happy, even If you get ALL the changes you think you want. Try being like the Republicans; feel blessed with what you have!<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>What a very sad week this is that we are commemorating 20 years since 9-11, when thousands were murdered and the New York City police, firefighters, and men and women first responders were&nbsp;killed or maimed for life. It is hard to believe that Sirhan Sirhan, who assassinated Senator&nbsp;Bobby Kennedy of New York State, received his parole at the end of August.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>This weekend marks 20 years since 9\/11. On that day, Americans went about their business; confident they were safe in their own country; confident that their elected officials, paid with their tax dollars, were doing, faithfully, their #1 job of keeping them safe. Approximately 3,000 American citizens died on that day going to work, or taking a domestic flight.&nbsp;Ordinary folks on one of those flights sacrificed their own life to save others, some of who were the very people that failed to protect them that day. Many who died were first responders, including police; giving their own lives to try to rescue as many as possible, no matter what race, skin color, religion, etc. NEVER FORGET!<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Trump agreed to exit Afghanistan by May 1. Biden delayed it to Aug. 31. Yet the true believers think it was Biden that was hasty. Amazing!<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>2,500 U.S. service members were killed in Afghanistan. Bush sent them there. Trump demanded withdrawal in his campaign, but waited four years to do it. The folks screaming that it\u2019s Biden\u2019s fault are history knowledge deprived.<\/p>\n<p>~<\/p>\n<p>Getting vaccinated will not \u201ctick off\u201d the liberals. They want you to get vaccinated and are ticked off that you refuse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You may call The Owego Pennysaver Readers\u2019 Column at (607) 687-2378 24-hours a day, or email comments to readerscolumn@stny.rr.com.
