Regular readers know this column spends a lot of time in a lot of weird places, as does its writer. So this week I thought it’d be nice to get some different perspectives. Instead of the usual, I asked some of my best, and weirdest, friends from around the state and the country to tell me what I should write about.

You should write about car horns. – Keith in New Orleans
Personally, I can’t stand it when people use the horn being friendly. Like beeping to just to say “hello” when they see me in my car or walking down the street. Car horns are a form of profanity, not pleasantry. If you’re horning me, you had better want to knock my block off. That’s why I always wanted auto manufacturers to install a sensor in the wheel that would spray drivers in the face with windshield washer fluid every time they did a “happy honk.” Lesson learned.

Write about the price of dry cleaning. It seems to cost more than it’s worth. I’m not sure what percentage of Evening Sun readers use dry cleaning, though. – John in Malta, NY
There is a large number of people in Chenango County who don’t use dry cleaning, but they really need to start. It’s not fair to make people around you suffer. As far as the cost goes, it can be affordable if you shop around. I’ve found that green-colored Speed Stick, by Mennen, is really good for dry cleaning in between showers, especially when you’re already a little ripe. Right now it’s on sale most places for $2.29. And it’s definitely worth the cost, too. Because who wants to smell like a re-heated Double Whopper?
