Tom Schultz: You are absolutely right in your comment to me. I know a maroon isn’t a cookie, as mentioned to Mary Bare, the brain was thinking something funny/different, and out of the mouth came the wrong answer. I apologize for my negligence in not re-reading what I wrote, having a bit of excruciating pain today and you are so right in what you wrote Tom. Thank you for clarifying my mistake. My apologies to David as well for giving the wrong information. Not thinking clearly today. I appreciate you correcting me Tom, I knew what I meant, it just came out wrong. Good job for catching my error.
A ‘Maroon’ is a joke from the old ‘Bugs Bunny’ cartoons from the 50’s & 60’s. As kids we knew it meant ‘moron’ . trouble I have learned that “Moron” usually means ‘More-on’ the ball than others.
Okay Mary Bare I’ll back you up a bit on this. Liz did some research (as I often do on various subjects) and although you may have taken this personally, it was to be informative to all of us that didn’t get the jist of this crazy person that called into the radio station. I’m dubious that Liz was trying to upset you or hurt your feelings, and sometimes (even I do this),put foot in mouth. What my brain thinks is funny comes out of my mouth as the wrong thing to say. Please don’t take any offense on Liz’s behalf or mine. We’re both just trying to clarify things and people come back at us as they have to you. But you have to know how to respond to them without getting your blood pressure up. For example….To David the poster above….the word is MORON, NOT A MAROON. A MAROON COULD BE A COOKIE. YOU MISSPELLED MORON. Now Mary Bare that is just one example of how we read into things written on here.
And for the record, I believe that we are BEATING THIS EDITORIAL TO DEATH LIKE A DEAD HORSE. Let’s all move on to another topic, we all got it, the lady that called into the radio station was a real fruit cake, end of story.
Feel better now Mary Bare? Do you understand what I’m trying to say here, everyone has a right to their opinions, comments etc. We can’t get overly sensitive about this. I write for the newspaper here at times and you should see some of the “nasty comments” I get back. But I over the years have learned to respond and I would say (especially when I writing about the crimes taking place) that 99% of the time I have a way of shutting up some posters of their remarks to me. Just let some of these comments be like a water running off a ducks back, we’re not trying to attack anyone here, just trying to enlighten people on how some people think and operate. Have a great day, feel better, don’t worry be happy!!!
now just hold on, i dont know what u are referring or getting on my back for, but i agree with liz..i didnt say anything as to what u are implying..i was making light of the woman who called into the station..she was saying they ought to move the signs, just like the deer could read the signs..why is everyone harrassing me? i give up..im damned everytime i post something..im just a plain country girl and i have a lot of friends who like my sense of humor and i wont apologize for saying d___..
You silly people… Of course the deer can’t read the signs. That’s why they put the big picture of the deer right there on the middle of it. Golly-Gee, Gosh & Darn it! This woman really has a point! ;-D
OK, I’ve now picked myself back up from the floor. As Bugs might say… What a Maroon!
im not surprised, mr. vetter..who ever heard of a deer not being able to read..his parents must have been so poor not to be able to get him schooling..GOT CHA’, HAHAHAHAHAHA ROFLMBBOOOOOOOOO!!!
I think we should just tell the deer that they need to use intersections like everyone else, if not, they will be ticket with jaywalking. Or no, we should require them to take defensive prancing. Yep, that’s the answer.

One last thing: A maroon is not a cookie. It’s a color, or one of five people in the band Maron 5. A macaroon is a cookie.
NOW the horse is dead.
