After reading letters Sunday, I can't help but write about three of them.

First, cats and dogs. I have an inside house cat and two non-night-barking dogs, and yes, dogs run free in my neighborhood at night. Yes, cats run free anytime and yes they do kill my garden and flowers every night. You know when the dog catcher is going to come by watching for Ol' Yeller being put in his house. Fences do not stop any cat or any dog, so trap them and get rid of them.

Secondly, the yard waste $1.50 raise was going to happen regardless of any new fancy-wheeled vehicle waste containers, so what's new? I am not going to call and beg the city for something that we are supposedly paying for over and over. I will just dump my two cans in the alley when they are not picked up.

Third and last, Jim Griffin, you served as sheriff so who would know more about lying cops, prosecutors and judges? Call the feds and turn them in. They are indeed good ol' boys who do lie, but if a person is not guilty then he needs to hire an attorney from Spokane or from any major city in state so that good-ol'-boy system will come under scrutiny.
