Here are some of the issues that area residents are discussing. The statements were phoned in anonymously, so the Courier does not vouch for their veracity, nor do we know what motivated the callers:

Editor’s note: The Courier does not accept written, typed or emailed Sound offs.

Church pastors and ministers in the pulpit, note: The use of the word “hello” a lot in the sermon, to pay attention, is a turn-away from the sermon for a lot of us in the congregation.

This is for the person who said quit complaining about the electric bills: Do you pay the environmental compliance costs, municipal franchise fee, plus the sales taxes on the bill? My bill went up $150. I hope you have a good day, and I’m glad you did get a reduction in your bill.

Thanks, John, for advertising to us that maybe the new businesses that never came to Hinesville have a block in the way called the LCDA. That way, everyone goes to Savannah. If the LCDA doesn’t know how to do its job, it needs to be turned over to somebody who does.

For all of you people out there who think those Republicans will make a good president, you need to adjust your medication, because they will not make a good president.
