North Tonawanda — This is in response to the person who says there was a Jeffrey’s in the City of Tonawanda. The word is Zeffrey’s. It was an old-fashioned ice cream parlor. It was beautiful.

I was in McDonald’s on Meadow Drive on Feb. 28. While I was buying food, my 9-year-old grandson went to the bathroom and left his newly bought Sabres gloves in there. A man came into McDonald’s to use the wash room, not to buy anything, and walked out with the gloves. My grandson bought the gloves not even two hours earlier with his birthday money. People are just awful and it ruins my day.

I would like to know why I have to hear from friends across the seas that a man in England threatened to kill President Obama.  The man was arrested and the papers in England covered it. But I would just like to know why news like this isn’t published in America?

NT did it again, wasting money cleaning up snow that is going to melt in a few days. They were cleaning off private businesses? Don’t they hire their own snow plows?

If the city owns the property from the sidewalk to the curb then you ought to call the city up and tell them to shovel my sidewalk during the winter.

    Bin Laden is dead. GM is alive. Those don’t sound like failures to me.

    If you keep taking signals down on Nash Road, it will become a regular speedway. Don’t forget: It’s still a city street, with side streets driveways and businesses.

    I think the North Tonawanda school district should look into requiring school uniforms. I think if the school board members walked around the high school and saw how some of these students dress they’d be appalled, to say the least. No school dress code is being enforced. They should consider the pros and cons of bringing back school uniforms.

    I’m very grateful I can’t watch the Butterknives on TV anymore. I mean the Sabres, heh-heh.

    Bob Confer, looks like you did get a little help, regarding your unexpected sights in Niagara. Personally I don’t feel imperiled by bobcats, bears and other wild animals. But I am afraid of you and opinions.

    There is no way the United States can afford a care package like Obamacare. This man has been a failure in everything he has done.

    NT taxpayers beware: The district is facing a $1.5 million shortfall this year. Yet the district continues to have tech and music teachers with only 4 students per class while the academic classes continue to have 30 to 32 students per class. Where are the district’s priorities? Why are we teaching private vocal lessons to only a few?

    Given all the “findings” reported at the Niagara County SPCA, it’s hard to understand why a third party has not been appointed to audit and review the status of the Erie County SPCA. According to several reports, both agencies work closely together on a regular basis. I think it is time the Erie County SPCA's practices and procedures be investigated as well. Based on encounters family members and I have had with the Erie County SPCA, I certainly hope they treat their animals better than they treat the people who come through their doors.

    Boy, that's too bad about what happened to Vito's sign. I hope they throw the book at that guy! Just like that other restaurant in Budwey Plaza. The scene they made in front of everyone. They did nothing but embarrass themselves. If you don't know how to run your business properly, don't go blaming everyone else!
