The “Question of the Week” for last week was: “Would you rather every traffic light turn green or always have the best parking spot?”
Following are the responses: Hal McBride - “Let me think. I have a Handicapped parking placard, so I’ll take that green light thing.”
Calie Coon* - “Parking spot because you can always run a red light if needed (cops if you see this… no you didn’t)” Kim Rogers* - “Parking space. The older I get the closer I want to be” Tonya Casper* - “My brain goes... depends on where I’m going. Doctor or concert? Am I late? LOL!”
Kelly Kirkpatrick* “You’re always late, jk” Kelly Kirkpatrick* “Green green green let’s go racing boys! Definitely green lights” Trish Coon* - “I can’t answer that because I want both!”
Chris Hansel* - “Should have added one more option and turned the into a FMK…… lol” Tami J. Hart-Hawthorne* - “This takes me back to when I would pickup my 3 year old grandson, Terik, in Kechi and bring him home to stay for the weekend. We made a game out of the traffic lights, because going on a bear hunt made us really tired, by the time we reached El Dorado! He would watch the traffic lights, and holler, Green Light, “ Keep going Gma!” “Yellow Light, “Hurry Gma, Hurry!” and Red Light, “STOP, Gma, STOP! A Police Man will get you!!!” I’m so thankful he was with me, I no doubt would’ve needed bail money! I’ll take green lights any day!”
Donnie Hare* - “Green light. I’m not lazy. I can walk from a parking spot.”
Janet Thomson* - “Parking spot for me and close to where I’m going.”
Susan Richling* - “Green lights!”
Ashley Buck Osborne* - “How bout no blinker noise….? I get mad and over stimulated by the sound of a blinker” Mari Noel* “Green lights” Do you have a recommendation for the “Question of the Week” please send it to Robin at [email protected], or stop by 822 E. River St., Ste 100, in Eureka.
