Letter to the Editor: Heroes Among Us
Heroes Among UsSeveral months ago I wrote a public pulse about the “angels among us” who work in nursing homes and care centers. I want to recognize another group of selfless people who are always willing to help. When the funeral home or the police department or the ambulance service need extra equipment, muscle or extra hands, who you gonna call? Not ghost busters.
Tolochko and Margo Tie the Knot
Face it. We're living in a world that is sometimes just crazy. I know, I know, it's not politically correct to say that something someone does, that you wouldn't do is crazy, but face it. There are just crazy people out there. Let's talk about Tolochko. He is a bodybuilder from Kazakhstan. I don't know a lot about Kazakhstan, nor do I really care to.
Letter to the Editor: Bruh, Can You Give Me a LYFT? The Case for Ridesharing
It's a more recent term in the layman's dictionary. When people hear the term "Ridesharing", they tend to think of Uber and Lyft. But Ridesharing is basically another form of Carpooling, but also applies to Bikes, Vans, and even Electric Scooters, and can also be done professionally for money. To participate in a Ridesharing Program, you need a Credit Card, a Debit Card, a Paypal or other E-Payment system account, a smart phone, or other portable device capable of connecting to the internet.
It's not news, but you can't get all you can eat chitterlings in Texas
If you've never been to Texas let me tell you a bit about H E B grocery stores. They are THE grocery store in Texas. Like everything they are huge. I'd guess they are probably the size of a Sam's Club, with mostly groceries in them. Like everywhere else, the stores are limiting disinfectants, miscelleaneous cleaning supplies, toilet paper and other things.

Our Patriotic Duty
I spent Tuesday working at the polls in one of the most beautiful [st]tings in the county, the courthouse. I worked alongside 4 other great people in the Eden, Harrison, Taylor Precinct. It's always fun to see my neighbors and friends come through the line. We had a bit of a treat with a delivery of donuts early on in the morning from a little gal that decided her mission was to spread a little happiness and cheer via some carb loaded sweetness. Letter to the Editor: Biden/Harris wins Part 2
Editor: Biden/Harris wins:It’s over, the election is already won. No need for further campaigning, right?, it’s in the bag.

Letter to the Editor: Thanks to Greenfield and Finkenauer
Dear Editor, We had the privilege today, Sunday, October 25th, of hosting Senate candidate Teresa Greenfield, at our farm to view the damage from the August 10th derecho. We also need to acknowledge Congresswoman Abby Finkenauer who visited our farm last Monday. Knowing that we had already voted for them by absentee ballot, they still insisted with our consent to see how we and our rural neighbors were recovering and if they could be of any assistance.
Letter to the Editor: Open letter to President of UNI
Dear Mr Nook,In reference to the following article: https://theiowastandard.com/uni-student-government-denies-students-for-life-group-one-member-calls-it-a-hate-group/As a transplant to Iowa from Ontario, where I was both raised and educated, I am deeply disturbed to learn that the University of Northern Iowa's student government has forbidden the formation of a pro-life student group to operate on campus.
