LOL ... that was great Chris!
Like Bobby said I once rode along back when the city had a ride along program and I have ridden with Shannon Hills PD in the past so I know first hand that for an Officer to focus his attention on one thing is next to impossible. And that he can't b…
Good post Chris...well said.
I know you know this, but others may not.
RBC is not the "omg battleground!" it is sounding to be in this thread. 10 years ago, ok, that was the hotspot. Today, all of Benton is experiencing approx 100 calls in each part of town per officer. One pa…
Thanks Jade..It is nice to hear from peaople like you that appreciate the work we do for our community...each Officer that works that district is very busy...I was assigned that district a few months ago and the months I worked it I had over 120 cal…
I voted for it Shelli, which is why i find it "sad" that most of the ones that voted no are the same ones that now are upset that there is not enough patrols, officers, etc.. to handle issues..
Mr. Thompson, yes I am very aware of the issues that yo…
Interested to know who in this conversation voted for the public safety tax (yes, the recent one that failed). I did. Anyone else dare to disclose?
Jade are you aware of what happens in Little Rock on a regular basis? and are you aware that some of the very same individuals are now coming to the hill slinging their dope and conducting their gang related activities? I'm not picking on Officer Sh…

We are just the messengers
I could get real in-depth and rehash things that people already know about newspaper reporters, but I'll keep it short for the sake of time.
Often we, as reporters, are the target of criticism because we report things about public officials or others in the public eye to the citizens in our communities. We report the good things that they do or plan to do, but it is often the negative things that people discuss more and remember years later. I don't think that people really understand things fr… Continue

Child care
My wife is hoping/planning to start back school very soon, which poses this question - Where is the best, inexpensive (I know unfortunately it is probably all high dollar) place in Saline County for child day care? Our little girl is 9-months old - today as a matter of fact!

My friend and I were extras in the crowd. Look for me in a white shirt close to the stage, BANGIN MY HEAD! Now that's acting, because Tia Carrere couldn't play bass and they shot that little section we were in about 12 times. Now that there are widescreen versions available, you can see more head bangage. My paycheck listed me as "Rocker Babe." I got $100 and 2 meals.

I did not have a contract. I do know who the short little guy is that either owns it or supposedly runs it...... Once I find out more from the Better Business Bureau, I'll post it on here! I'm sick of companies trying to take advantage of others and…
Keep writing and telling your story. I am hooked. As a student of history, a person whose family members and friends fought in Viet Nam, I appreciate your telling of the real story.
It is to bad that the Parties that you speak of do not have the same values that they did during that time frame... So many people are do things for there own benefit instead of thinking of what the people think, money has corrupted so many great ca…

William, I added some tags, in case you were wondering where those came from.
Who owns this company?
Did you have a contract?
I would write them out a statement for your time having to deal with this mess .... just slide it under the door. lol.
Yeah, I totally forgot to post stuff all over my website and my Facebook! Darn! I better go... oh wait, no I did do that. Your reminder must have worked retroactively. It's late and I'm done debating. But you guys are awesome for putting the questio…
Thanks, William, for sharing that. It's true about the "entrance to central Arkansas."
Maybe we should all get out and just make sure the people know what day this election is. Thats the big issue here as ive not seen one sign FOR the fairplex yet. Is the on purpose like the past special election for the Bryant school mills raise? We…

A tax for a
'fairplex'? There's already way too much of my money being wasted! If we
could get back just 10% of what the State of Arkansas WASTES on BS for
CFO's, CEO's and Directors for Divisions of DHS, we could build a
'fairplex'…
1) The city of Benton paid more than $1 Million for the Fairplex study and before they even had the study was buying up property in front of the proposed site. This started as a Benton City Project but once the Study was complete it became a "County…
To those who say it'll cost too much to attend events there - lets not overlook the community facilities - like the walking trails, dog park, & community centers that will cater events by and for the people of Benton. This is not a ticketmaster sort…
I would absolutely love to see Saline County get this Fairplex and it just be chock full of fun and exciting events!!! I have every intention (at this time) of voting FOR it.
That being said, I have to reply to what I perceive as normal curiosity a…
I'm just about to give up on this thread, so I think I'll give my last word and be done. Some people are well off in this town, Some are comfortable and some are down right struggling and couldn't afford to go to an event at the Fairplex if it was a…
I do not live in Benton. I live in Saline County.
It appears that many people are trying to beat up the City of Benton for their attempts at trying to make Saline County better for everyone. Benton has been a good host for our county seat. Over the…
