Letters to the editor

The Niagara Falls Reporter gets emails and letters every day, way too many to publish.
Here is our most recent sampling:

I'm pissed. Your facts are well based. Dyster is nuts. Why isn't the state coming in and investigating all these no-bid contracts, and giving to his contributors. He raised pay to 6 figures for some of his hires, which will probably not go down in future administrations. What kickback is he getting on these contracts? There is nothing left in this town, except druggies and those on SSI, SSD, welfare. The country is in a negative financial position and these lawyers promise to get people their social security.
About lawyers, there is a joke. Two farmers each claimed to own a certain cow. While one pulled on its head and the other on its tail, the cow was milked by a lawyer.
I hope you are not a lawyer. I think you are smarter than most lawyers, and people in this town do not know the good you are doing in their interest.
Recall Dyster. He has spent money on the if come.

Editor;

Been here in Wichita, Kansas for 3 years and each Tuesday look forward to your website.
Left Tonawanda after 70 years residence to be closer to family.
But miss Western New York; Michael's, Sawyers Inn, Alex's in Batavia.
Can’t find a decent pizza or bagel in all of Kansas. Where is Tim Hortons when you need them?
Keep up the fantastic editorial articles. Maybe someone with leadership skills will come forward and start recovery of a great city.
Paul Bullinger

This is in response to the unnamed person and the article they wrote referring to the sign Sub Delicious put in their window regarding "pull up your pants or don’t come in." The person said. "Should I decide to go into a restaurant nude, I should be able to do it." Here is my response to Nude:  Please let me know where you sat, as my clean pulled up jeans will not sit where you sat. EWW!! The owners are right on. It’s their ownership and just like your house, you rule the roost. You wouldn’t like smelly plumber butts [or worse yet] in your personal chair now would you? Nor do I want to see that when I’m eating. They need to get a reality check before they do something they get arrested for. That person needs to find themselves a nude beach or a very lonely island. I laughed at this one for 2 days, ha. Bet you got more than one response to that one, as it prompted me to write my 1st letter to the editor.

Thanks, S.M.

 

Dear Editor:
I keep hearing and reading about the radioactive base of Route 104 a.k.a. Lewiston Road in Niagara Falls, NY; but never where the soil has been or will be disposed? No information seems to have been released regarding this question. I am sure if it had been made public; and the local residents became aware of the dump site, there would be even more news to cover because the people would be up-in-arms.

We are concerned about "fracking." Why are we not concerned about radioactive waste disposal?

Your conservative ideals disgust me Mr. Parlato.
How ever am I going to be able to repay my $120,000 student loan for my 6-year B.A. in Cultural Dynamics and Societal Impact of Left handed Leprechaun Transgender Underwater Basket-weavers when the only places that will employ me require me to hide most of my tattoos, remove my facial piercings and use the phrase "Would you like fries with that?" 

I feel that I am totally entitled that my first post-college, entry-level job should be able to support me in the same lifestyle that it took my parents 30 years of hard work to attain.

Dear Sirs;
I’m giving away 1000 PDF copies of my ebook, "Lunch? – 20 sales questions I’ve been asked over lunch" to introduce my new online sales tutoring. Could you tell me who your newspaper’s advertising director is and if I could send them a complimentary copy of this book?
If so, please return this email and Lunch is on me.
Thanks!
Jerry Hocutt
Speaker, Author and Sales Trainer

I’m so sorry Mr. Hocutt, when your PDF came in, the entire staff was out to lunch at the Como Restaurant. Try us again later.
Lunch is from 11:45 – 4:30. We quit at 5:00 pm.

Gentlemen

As a former resident of Niagara County and a guy that spent years working in the Falls, I watched first hand what happened when a casino was brought in.
I now live in Lake George and guess what? Yep. We have morons that think a casino here will be a great idea.
Do you have any articles, research, statistics or anything else that I can bring to the County Board of Supervisors meeting that supports my opposition. I am in the minority here and it scares the daylights out of me.

(The best advice we can give you is to do a google search of Niagara Falls Reporter and the Senecas and you will see dozens of articles that show that the day the Senecas arrived with their casino and tax free advantages marked the day of doom for this city. Or better yet have these morons visit the city.)
