cincinnati blog posted today about an obnoxious letter to the editor in today's enquirer where some nut was bitching about there not being enough good restaurants downtown. i read the other letters today and laughed my ass off. seriously, who writes in with this shit? when i first moved to cincinnati, i used to read the enquirer letters to the editor every day because i thought they were so hilarious. here are some really good ones from the past few days for your reading pleasure...
DOES THIS GROUP GET A CAPITAL LETTER?
Perhaps it is just my own bias and this is just a word game, but I find it just a bit disturbing that we have African-Americans, Hispanics, Jews, Muslims, American Indians, etc. When do the average blue collar working-class white people get a special designation with a capital letter?

MODESTY HAS TAKEN A DIVE ON NETWORKS
I don't know if anyone else has noted that the necklines on lady anchors of news desks have dropped lower, lower, lower. It does appear our local ladies appropriately dress for work, but on some of the network stations it seems they're sometimes dressed to go out to a nightclub rather than to work!
It isn't just anchors. On, for example, the TV game show "Deal or No Deal," ladies might as well be topless. This is just another example of how modesty has been thrown out the window.

BIG BROTHER HAS GONE TOO FAR
In response to the "Your Voice" column "Winning the food fight against Big Brother" (May 27), welcome to the world of the modern-day smoker. It was simply a matter of time before Big Brother decided that he could make all of our decisions for us. Since the public are obviously so simple-minded that we can no longer make sound choices, Big Brother must do it for us.
How does the old saying go? Be careful what your wish for, you just might get it.

seriously, who are these people? you could not make this shit up if you tried! it actually really cracks me up that the newspaper prints these. i mean do you think this is really the best they get, or are they just printing these because they think they're hilarious?

hahahahaha. I have gone through periods of reading the letters to the editor online, but I haven't in awhile. I don't know which one I like best. Probably the one about "lady anchors."
We are too much alike. I read them for the sheer comedy. My favorite was the "capital letter" one-- oy!
Hilarious!
These remind me of those billboards for the radio station, WEBN I think. People who are quoted are named Myra Buttreeks and Hu Flung Pu. It just makes me smile when I am stuck on the interstate!
hahaha, i totally thought of those billboards too! those crack me up!
Interesting to know.
