Meigs County Notebook

Out of respect, replace
·tattered flags with .new ones
• The (Everett) Herald, Wash., on retiring the flags of September: It's rime.
.
·
As much as we love the patriotic sentiment an unfettered flag
represents, it's rime to take down those torn and tattered -starspangled banners and give them a proper rest.
Many of us who felt powerless following the Sept. 11 attacks
began displaying the flag as a show of solidariry. Flags of all
shapes and sizes graced cars, trucks, freeway overpasses and
lapels. Red, white and blue replaced autumn colors as the fall
·fashion statement.
However, we need to remember that the hallmark of winter
in the northwest is dirry grime .... Fabric flags suspended from
car antennas, pickup trucks and semis have taken a bearing and
are looking pre.try sad and sorry - especially those whipped
along at 60 mph on the freeway. These colors may not run, but
they do unravel.
· Out of respect, it's rime to take them down.
This, of course, begs the question - what should one do
with a damaged flag? Turning for advice to the American
Legion web site at www.legion.org we discover the answer:
"Question: How arc unserviceable flags destroyed?
"Answer: The Flag Code suggests that, 'when a flag ~as
served its useful purpose, it should be destroyed, preferably by
burning.' For individual citizens, this should be done discreetly
so the act of destruciion is not perceived as a protest 'or desecration. Many American Legion Po$ts condijct Disposal of
Unserviceable Flag Ceremonies on june 14, Flag Day. This ceremony creates a particularly dignified and solemn occasion for
the retirement of unserviceable flags."
... Of course, there's nothing stopping someone from going
out to purchase a new all-weather flag to replace the damaged
one.

Mediocre apple looks great in bin full of bad ones
One thing that life has taught me is that
there at:e no absolutes. Pre try much ererything is subjective and based on comparison. Like buying apples in the grocery
store, your choices are based on the selection. A mediocre apple looks pretty good
in a bin full of bad ones.
.This is an important lesson to apply to
other facets of your existence. At work, for
example, you should do everything you
can to keep incompetent people fiom
being fired. They make you look like a real
winner. Same thing in your marriage.
Have a few total losers as friends. Make
sure your wife knows about every stupid
thing they do.You'll look like .a genius. It's
also a good way to check on how far
you've let your own standards slip. It's OK
to .have friend~ with tolerable faults in
order to make you look better, but if it
gets to the point w~ere you have to associate with unemployable degenerate
boozers just for you to surviy~ CO!llpa~ison, well, maybe it's rime to raise your
own bar a little. .
Shopping for trouble
1
I don't think women understaJ).d why
it's so difficult for us to shop for clothes
with them there. The biggest problem is
that we think we've kept our weight gain
and fimess loss a secret. That makes us hesit3nt to do anything that would blow our
cover. Like looking at the rack of 42 waist
pants when everything else in our cup-

board is a 34: So we don't do that. We pick
out a pair of 34s and head for the cash register. Then comes one of the most dreaded questions any husband can hear "Aren't .you going to try those on?" No.
· There's no point. We know these pants are
going to be a p~ajor struggle to get on, and
the change rooms are too small for us to
do the 1physical contortions required · to
fasten ~ 34 waistband around a 42 waist.
So, instead, we have an argument and ultimately buy the pants Without trying them
on, and then we hang them in the closet
beside all the other never-worn clothes
we bOught without trying on. None of
this Would have happened if wives would
let husbands shop for clothes on thei.r
own. Or if husbands would shop for
clothes on their own.

NEW YORK (AP)- Good thing
Billy Packer doesn't work for ESPN.
The CBS coUege basketball analyst
on Tuesday ripped the cable sports
network's plan to
air the heavily
prom~Jed, profaniry-filled film "A
Season On .The- Brink" about Bob
Knight immediately after Sunday's
NCM tournament selection show.
"If I were at ESPN, I'd refuse to be .
on a (NCAA selection) show that was
going to be followed by a piece of
,ga-rbage like that," Packer said of the
film version of John Feinstein's 1986
best-selling book.
, "It's not reflective of coUege basketball, and it's not even an accurate
portrayal of the book. If I were the

· Louisiana-Lafayette (20-10),
which was making its appearance in the tournament title

· contain the 7 - foot-1 Marcus
down the stretch.
"When he gets the ball deep
in the post and you're behind
him, you have to let him get a
shot,"
said
LouisianaLafayette's Michael Southall,
who was matched against
Marcus. "You are really not

LONG BOTTOM- E.l. duPont de Nemours &amp; Co.
says the chemical con taminant found in the Tuppers PlainsC hes ter Water District's wells poses no threat to public safety, but a class-action lawsuit filed in West Virginia alleges
otherwise.
Last week, TP-C announced the results of a water sample
tested by DuPont, which revealed the presence of ammonium pertluorooctanoate, C-8. in five of the district's Long
Bottom wellt
Don Poole of the wate r distri ct said the sample of the
local water supply was ord&lt;!red after he learned of the co ntamination of the Lubec k, WVa., and Little Hocking water
supplies.
Poole said· he is still comfortable with th e safety of the
public water suppl y, which serves 14,100 customers io
Meigs and Athens counties.
C-8 is a surfactant, or detergent-like material, used by
DuPont and other companies as an essen tial processing aid
in the manufacture of fluoropolymer resins and finishes.

Coun(y's sales tax revenue
remains at a deficit when
compared to 2001 collections.
Local merchants claimed a
banner C hristmas season in
December 2001, but December sales tax collections only
barely surpassed those in
2000.
Co\lnty Auditor ' N ancy
Parker Campbell received
. $86,661.35 in December sales
tax revenue last month, compared to $86,470.31 last February. December 1999 sales
tax revenue was $99,660.48 .

The year's sales tax revenue
to date re mains at $7,639.66
below January and February
collections last year.
Officials believe th e deficit,
in part, is· to be blamed on a
decrease in new car sales, primarily because of the closing
of Bibbee Ford in Middleport
last winter, and th e closing of
Pamida in Pomeroy early last
year.
"The December collections
do not necessarily reflect a
poor retail shoppin g season,"
Campbell said. ,"Most of th e
blame likely lies with the
decline in new car sales."
The slip in tax collections is

of special concern to county
officials when combin ed with
an anticipated loss in personal
property and real estate tax
revenue, due to the closing of
the South ern Ohio Coal Co.
In 2000, the co unty collected S1.1 9 million in local sales
tax revenue, and in 2001,
$1.15 milliou.

the May 7 ba llot. Proceeds
from that hike, however,
would not benefit general

operation.
