We all enjoy celebrations. This week we celebrate Valentine鈥檚 Day. Maybe we will receive a special treat from the one person in our life we treasure most. I am celebrating the fact that I am home again after 6 weeks of medical treatments. I helped people celebrate anniversaries and birthdays in the place where I stayed. There was also celebration when someone was able to join again for a meal after a 2 week quarantine because of sickness.
My perspective - Exceptional, but unacceptable

Social media, and Facebook, in particular has drawn a lot of attention in recent history. Even Facebook has been critical of its own performance as they begin to fathom that they have almost no control over their content. Last year, it is reported that they shut down five million FB sites as the content was inaccurate, illegal or immoral. I would suggest that if they are trying to weed out the sites that are inaccurate, illegal or immoral then they have a long way to go yet.

I object strongly to a mandatory collection of funds for recreational purposes. Funds for the above should come only by fund raising events, combined with user fees if necessary. If that can鈥檛 be achieved, then perhaps its time to shut down some. The fact is, is that businesses have been shutting down in town here one after the other recently. The die has long been cast for small towns such as ours.
