CHEERS: To Church on the Rock for hosting such a wonderful Halloween event. It was apparent that much time, effort and energy was expended in hosting this event and it was wonderful and family friendly. This kind of thing is especially needed for the kiddos who maybe feel a bit too old to dress up for Halloween but still want to be a part of it. There was so much to do ... something for everybody. But what struck me more than anything was the kind, patient and enthusiastic workers. What a wonderful witness you are for Christ.—K.M., Texarkana, Texas



JEERS: To the person working for the voting process on Oct. 30 for early voters. You told me after I finished filling out my ballot to do whatever I wanted to it. I forgive you and may you be delivered from whatever there is you have against others like me.—S.S.H., Texarkana, Texas



JEERS: To the inconsiderate neighbors on FM 2148S. For some reason you think it is appropriate to wake your neighbors in the middle of the night with your stupid fireworks display. It sounds like a bomb has been dropped in our quiet neighborhood. You should be ashamed of yourself, but of course you are not.—L.O., R.M. and M.N., Texarkana, Texas
