Just get a poster

Mike, I'm calling about the Martin Luther King Highway and Main Street. Why do they have to add Martin Luther King Highway? There's a bunch of hillbillies who want their names on every sign. Why don't they get a big poster and post it with their names and name it Martin Luther Kingshighway?

No fish for you

Make a different choice for dining on Fridays during Lent other than Chick-fil-A at Cape. They have no fish for you this year.

In a fog

C'mon people over here on Highway 80 between East Prairie and Charleston. I know you aren't this blanking crazy. I've passed four people now that didn't have their lights on, and it's so foggy out you can only see two pole lengths in front of you. C'mon, use some commonsense. It's really simple to turn your headlights on. How dumb are you? Here comes two more! If you didn't know, it's against the law to drive with your headlights off when it's foggy like this.

And I take it you are pulled off the highway as you're calling this in?

Got me covered?

I am trying to locate people who do upholstery work. I am interested in local as well as any who are close to Sikeston. If anyone knows of anyone that are reasonably priced and do good work, I'd appreciate if you would leave a name and number in SpeakOut. I am unable to locate any upholsterer in The Standard or in any of the phone books.

Can't find my Sugar

I live on Sixth Street and my little black cat, she has like a diamond collar for a necklace, came up missing. She has some loose hair on her because she has allergies. She's been missing since Feb. 13. Her name is Sugar. If anyone finds her, I would really appreciate if you let me know.
