  • I Know What I Like

    May 2, 2019

    "I like believing in what I want to Don't like no one to tell me what to do." Those lyrics from the 1987 hit song "I Know What I Like" by Huey Lewis and the News sum up a feeling we all experience, at least from time to time. We develop patterns that guide us through our daily lives. Some of those patterns are informal – like whether we automatically put on both socks and then each shoe or if we fall into the sock-shoe-sock-shoe crowd – while others are much more rigid. We often tend to cre...

    BAUGHMAN FOR BEDFORD COMMISSIONER To the Editor: I am writing in support of Deb Baughman for Bedford County Commissioner. One of Deb’s top priorities is making cell and high-speed internet service a reality in all rural Bedford County. There are many reasons to do this, but Deb understands why it’s so important to those with health issues. Last year, my husband had a massive heart attack. When he was sent home he had to wear a “life vest, which is an external defibrillator. If this defibrillator went off he had to either call 911, which we di...

    To the Editor: Over a month has passed since my last letter regarding our national sovereignty and little has changed. The border with Mexico is more porous than ever with many migrants, mostly from central America, coming into the US every day. The U.S. Congress continues to do nothing that might help the situation as its lack of action allows more immigrants to enter our country ILLEGALLY every day. It does nothing about many needed items on the agenda and continue to give money to abortion providers under the guise of “women’s health.” They...

    To the Editor: In April, the United States Postal Service annually promotes National Dog Bite Prevention Week. I am writing to ask our customers to take notice of this annual campaign to help the postal service eliminate dangerous and costly dog attacks. Pet owners’ efforts are critical when you consider the number of postal service employees attacked by dogs. Although last year dog attacks declined to 5,714 (500 fewer than the year before) still, just one bite can be devastating and is too many. My concern is not only for our employees, but w...
