It was the king

The
Wal-Mart cowboy's tale
By BILLY MURPHY
Laugh Lines
Once, on the old
frontier on the western side of Fayetteville, there was a Wal-Mart.
In this town, a cowboy named "Quick Nick" needed some Scotchguard

Over the past several
weeks I have enjoyed, in a most comical way, reading three articles
in The Citizen about the famous Southern gentleman, "Doc"

LETTERS TO THE
EDITOR
Instructor
should face same charges as student
The pilot of the
recent fair buzzing incident is being charged with two felony charges
for terroristic acts while the flight instructor faces only misdemeanor
charges. There is something amiss here.

assumes a public trust, he should consider himself public property."

Sept. 11, began full of hope and excitement as I entered City Hall to

Mayoral

The tragedy of Sept.
11, 2001, has created a series of questions regarding national security,
the economy, religion, international unity and many others. It was comforting
to witness the ability of our people to come together during this assault
on our freedom.
