Written on Continued city budget cuts don’t please all :

I agree with Shadow. My husband counted four cop cars at the school crossing on the two occasions he drove by. We also know of one cop that parks his SUV in his home driveway while on duty and keeps it running while he is in the house for hours.

Written on Island iguana hunt a success :

I feel the same way as OdonataCreations. I enjoyed seeing them and never saw any harm that they've done. Luckily we still have a few around our neighborhood. I think some people are just afraid of them and that's what started this mess. They don't hurt anyone. I've been close to them and if you move too fast they run away.

Written on Olympics: Marco Island’s Mercedes Farhat, competing for Libya, falls short in prelims, enjoys experience:

Here she lives in the U.S. and attends the University of Florida but represents Libya in the Olympics? What's wrong with this picture?

Written on Marco backs next phase of bridge-toll study:

Why don't we just charge a percentage on the sale of the cars, trucks, vans & boats that are FOR SALE next to the bridge? Or charge the campers for their unlawful overnight stays there? Or charge the jetski owners for using the beach by the bridge as a ramp? Or charge the guy who sells FRESH LOCAL FISH? Lucky for him he doesn't need a store front - he just uses our bridge!

Written on Bye, Bill Moss: Good-natured ribbing, praise showered at farewell luncheon:

Those of you who oppose septics did not attend Butch Neylon's informational meeting a couple of weeks ago at Mackle Park. It was very enlightening and full of facts. Everything he showed us - photos, charts, graphs, etc. made common sense. There's no way I would want sewer on Marco knowing what I know now. Already there have been sewer spills from the Tigertail area. We will have broken pipes out the wazoo since our ground seems to shift easily. After Wilma many homes had the ground sink around them and pulled their pipes along with it.

Oh, by the way, I saw Bill Moss and his wife looking at new Lexus' this past weekend at Germain. He looked like a farmer needing a John Deer tractor more than a luxury vehicle!

Written on Marco Council votes to buy/lease treatment equipment:

Like I've said before, someone in the city government is "in cahoots" with Quality Enterprises!

Written on The Farmer File: Meet Bill Moss, the grown-up:

Thanks for the info and sorry Dr. Zecchino.

Written on The Farmer File: Meet Bill Moss, the grown-up:

It's funny how Zecchino's last response to Vashark1 all of a sudden is written in a way someone can make sense of it. What happened? Sounds like the Dr. has split personalities!

Written on The Farmer File: Meet Bill Moss, the grown-up:

I can never understand Paul Vincent Zecchino's responses. Am I the only one?

Written on Bill Moss named new Naples city manager:

MarcoAvenger. These are not accusations. I read the paper and e-mails. Did you see that letter written to the City Council from Butch Nylon in the paper a week or so ago. I received it via e-mail with the Quality Enterprises contract for the sewer project attached. What about the asbestos fiasco too? Didn't you read about that?
