I don't do dope so 1 could care levs I read a little story about a new cure for A ID S W ell, only homosex uals. prostitutes and dope addicts get A ID S What's all the fuss about'’ Jim and Tammi Bakkcr were in the news I don't care about that fraud trial a bit I figure anybody stupid enough to send their money o ff to some T V preacher is sort ot inviting a little skim Besides. I only watch the hall game on Sunday The Heppner Dam is falling down Oh. the headline said H was safe, but everyone knows that's just what they want you to think Anybody can see the thing leaks like a sieve, and what leakv is hound to break The N F L game put on by the state lottery is a big bn NET. doesn't like it W ho cares’ Only fools play those state run lotteries anyway, a real gambler has his own htxikie. underground and thus tax free Big story about how the East Germans arc escaping to West Germny Now that's something that s good to know, if 1 ever saw it A German's a German and when they get together, they'll start another war But even that doesn't fM h er me cuz we licked 'em in W'WI and wc licked 'em in W W 1I and we can lick 'em again That Erankc murder is about the biggest non-news story I ever saw O f course there's corruption in the prison, it's part o f the government isn't i f ’ I don't need to know any more about corruption in government That’s sure a story I don't need to read any more about Did you read about Reagan having brain surgery'1 You don't really need to know much about that since it appears to be about 10 years to late They 're taking a lot o f Indian bones out of the Smithsonian and giving them "proper" burial Did I need to know that ’ When I'm dead. I'm dead I could care less who gets to play with my bones And then, in this big city newspaper, the editorial page was full o f flu ff about the spotted owl First o f all. I don't often read a word in the editorial page because I could care less about anyone elve s opinion. They're usually wrong about cither their facts or in their thinking Sometimes both So I don't need to know what someone else thinks about something Especially a spotted owl When sonic bird that you can't even eat gets near extinc tion. that's proof that he just don't fit in the scheme o f things any more and we ought to just help him along W ell, my time with the big city paper was a total waste I really didn't need to know a thing printed in there I ’d a lot rather spent the time play ing golf (There's a message in the above tongue-in-chcek absurdity, meant for those who didn't read it.) / SEC Gospel-Aires speak at Nazarene church The Heppner Nazarcnc Church will hold special services September 24 27 with John and Judy Knaupp, members of the Gospel Aires, as guest speakers Services will begin at I I a m and 6 p m Sunday and at 7 p m Monday through Wcdncs day On Saturday September 23 there will he an all-night Youth Rally beginning at 7 p.m. in the basement There w ill be food, fun and fellowship All teens are invited For more information contact Lauri H ire. 676-5251 H EPPNER ELK S Special Ladies Ni^ht District Deputy Jim Mahaffey Visitation Dinner 6:30 H unterS Ni^ht Thursday Sept.28 Barbeque Kihs Dinner at 6: U) Prizes galore i B IN G O every Wednesday Night 7:30 p.m.-$200 Blackout (gj* Heppner Elks 358 6 7 6 -9 IH I WlH ri I Hi DM M 142 N .
