Written on Poll: Marco City Council considers charging a fee at Canine Cove :

lovelifeorelse - What exactly is the purpose of your post? As I see it, you do not have a dog in this fight. Does it make you feel better to try (Notice I say Try) to cut down the residence of Marco Island. I can tell you that no one on Marco is envious of Naples. We have a much better quality of life. I also do not see where you have any room to criticize the Marco Island government. Haven’t you ever heard people in Glass houses should not through stones. We fight amongst ourselves, but it is like family we have a vested interest in what goes on here. And by the way we were the first with a dog park. I think Naples is following our lead.

Written on Letter to the Editor: Merging of traffic at the Jolley Bridge:

Biff is the problem here. Because he has been coming here for 10 years he has the right to pass everyone and get to the front of the line, and to top it off he has his children with him. He is teaching them that they do not have to wait or be respectful to others. This is one of the biggest problems with our population today. In the past parents actually taught there kids to respect others. Now biff is bringing a inconsiderate children. Great we need another generation of people here on Marco who say “That is not the way we do it where I come from”. Great parenting biff. Instead of teaching your children a great lesson you have instilled road rage.

I am so glad you called the sheriff’s office capricomments; it makes it easier for them to find the troublemakers. Now when they see a car doing something dangerous they can just call you and ask you to stop.

I think most people are polite enough to let someone in. I think where people get a little upset is they get in line and watch car after care pass and go to the front of the line. I do not block the road; I do not think it would do anything but upset people more. I am just amazed at some of the attitudes that have posted here. They think it is their right to go to the front of the line without waiting their turn. I sincerely hope that none of these brain trust have any children, because we all will be paying for the stupidity they are instilling in them for years to come. Everyone knows it is season; a little courtesy on both sides would make things better.

Do not worry blogsmog is just part of the OBAMA wing nuts. This is what our country is coming too where citizens can call in another citizen. How do the police know who was at fault? This guy is just nuts. There are two roads that lead to the Island. However, common sense would suggest that if you see people lining up orderly to get on the line maybe you should do the same. It completely blows my mind that these guys think that it is their right to blow by everyone and get in front of them. Then they do the most amazing thing and slow down. These people really make me question the state of our country. Blogsmog and the rest of his group care about one thing themselves. Until we learn to respect others we are in for a very bad time. Blogsmog keep waiting until the last minute to merge, then slow down once you get on the bridge, call the police. It may take me longer to get across the bridge, but I can rest at night knowing that I am not you and I do not have your value system.

Jim it is called common courtesy. As an island resident you should know that the lane merges. Things would work a lot better if people would merge as traffic allows it. I do not understand why you think it is your given right to fly past everyone else waiting in line and cut in at the last minute. I do not blame the guy in the SUV for being a little upset with you. He probably has to watch some self important person like you fly by every day, while he is trying to teach his children to be respectful to others. When you want to the last minute to merge is causes cars along the whole line to apply their brakes and delay everyone from crossing across the bridge. If you merge as traffic allows, the whole thing works better. A little courtesy goes a long way. You should learn how to play with others.

Written on VIDEO: Police escort Marco resident away after he verbally bashes deceased councilman:

Leberator100 - I guess you can see my confussion since I do not belive that Ed is originally from North Carolina, what difference does it make that he lives there now? I see it as a backhanded inslult.

Written on VIDEO: Police escort Marco resident away after he verbally bashes deceased councilman:

Boy leberator100 - You are a very angry person. I guess it is just your way to just insult people. That seems to be the way here on Marco. People are unable to discuss issues without throwing out personal insults. But if that makes you happy keep it up. It really makes you look like a big man.
