This is in reference to an article on the front page of the City section on Feb. 2, “Stuck in the muck.” I have never read such hogwash in my life. A bulldozer running over a chicken? Goats miscarrying?A wall of mud? Ha.

Have you ever been around when blasting is taking place? If you have, you might not have even noticed it because there is no noise and no movement in the ground. So how would that cause a goat to abort?

How on earth would a bulldozer run over a chicken? Shouldn’t it be in a pen anyway? That must be one fast bulldozer. Oh, and there wasn’t one feather out of place when the owner brought it to the town office and water department. Weird, huh?

A mudslide? Wow, a small stream of water going downhill when it is raining. Just amazing. Who would have thought?

The project is for the betterment of the town, and the contractors are doing their best to keep disruptions to a minimum. Those landowners should stop the constant whining, so the project can be completed.
