Letters to the Editor

Love: Don’t ever push it away

“You’re in my arms and all the world is gone” are the lyrics that play through my speakers as I sit down to write about gay marriage — something, that as a gay man, I was opposed to when the bill first appeared on the ballot several...

Make some time — and dance!

A lot of Portervillans don’t know that Trick Shot, a great dance band, plays from 7 to 10 p.m. every Thursday night at the Veterans Memorial Building on West Olive Avenue. Long-time attendees go for the fun of it. Some people start dancing because...

Teen shares views on forgiveness

From the beginning of time people have tried to forgive and yet sometimes people do not understand the meaning of forgiveness. What is forgiveness, you ask? Well, it’s simple, really: just trust in your fellow people. If you have no forgiving,...

Finally proud of Porterville

I can finally say I’m proud of Porterville. On June 17 about six gay and lesbian couples from right here in Porterville got a marriage license and/or married, too. Three sets of couples I knew, and were from Porterville. The first to get a marriage...

Gay marriage runs counter to biblical teachings

Without getting into any lengthy legalities here, I would like to express a few nonsecular views on same-sex marriages. I have to say that I do understand why the secular world would deem it alright and legal to live such a lifestyle. I certainly don’t...

Customer service earns high praise

I would like to bring to light someone in the car service industry who I believe is honest and trustworthy: two traits that are hard to find these days. Recently I have been having major problems with my pickup truck. I patronized two businesses and...

Your editorial in The Recorder on May 17 using “fairness” to promote gay marriage is bogus and silly to the extreme. Fairness has absolutely nothing to do with it. It’s like arguing that it’s unfair for women to have to have all...

Saving money, but at what cost?

A sarcastic letter, I admit. Spare the rich and take from the poor seems to be the solution to the economic woes that have beset California, among other states. Medicare/ Medi-Cal entitlement programs were hit very hard; I’m living proof of that....

Diner gives high marks to Le Bistro

I am writing to let people know Le Bistro, owned and operated by Pete McCraken, is the best place in this town to go to dine. The food is wonderful and very pleasant to look at. The service is quite congenial. The atmosphere is wonderful, you can actually...

Please, please take care of pets

In response to Patty Johnson’s letter to the editor in May, I so back up what she said about having veterinarians take turns on weekends in case someone’s animal needs attention. I also agree about the need for people to keep their pets secured...
