Like many Americans, I am concerned about the effect that government pensions are having on the economy. And this is not necessarily a matter of whether or not the pensions are deserved. Far from it.

Boy, am I stupid. I finally got around to "doing the taxes" this time around and discovered we owed a lot of money. We were thankful we had the money in the checking account to take care of it.

Finally. The county plans to move forward with an automated records keeping system with, or without, the assistance of Erie County clerk of courts Barbara Johnson.

On March 26, I read the article about Asher Nikolajevs. I have gone to school with Asher, and I think it is a great thing the community is doing for him and his family. Hopefully, with this article, people will come out and support the family. I never really knew him well (we were in different grades), but he was always happy and never complained when I saw him.

I plan to vote for the Bellevue Public Library tax levy on May 4 because the library saves my family money while fulfilling our individual needs.
