JEERS to those who ripped-out the trees on Highway 49 next to the car dealership. It looks terrible. – D.R.C.

JEERS to the Sentinel. In recent editions, the Sentinel shrunk the "Kidding Around" page to half its normal size, making it almost impossible to read. One had to get out a magnifying glass to read the crossword puzzle clues and to scribble in letters in the crossword boxes themselves.  – M.P. (Editor’s note: We are aware of the difficulty with the new size, and with this edition, you will find a new and easier to read crossword puzzle.)

CHEERS to the person who replaced the stolen American flag at the Victorian Attic. We’re truly grateful and CHEERS to the Sentinel for getting out the word about the stolen flag in the first place. – S.H.

CHEERS to those who respected the U.S. flag carried by veterans leading the Gold Country Fair Opening Parade and JEERS to those who didn’t. – F.P.

CHEERS to Placer County Law Library’s Christopher Christman for helping all the common men and women learn how to stick (the law) to the evil, but sometimes powerful, wrongdoers of the small claims world.

JEERS to letter writer Therese Pope. You made a mountain out of a molehill and made yourself look silly in the process. – C.H.

JEERS to the owner of the property at the corner of Haines and Dry Creek Rd that has dumped an uncountable number of old cars right next to Dry Creek.

JEERS to the county for not investigating and forcing some type of cleanup.  – B.J.M.

CHEERS to Therese Pope for her letter to the editor regarding Gary Moffat’s column. I wanted to cheer for someone finally standing up to his negative, snobbish ways. Move back to wherever you came from Gary. We enjoy positive and real people in our community. – B.B.

JEERS to the columnist in the Sunday AJ for spouting off again about something he doesn’t understand.

Informed local business people will open their arms to this effort and it can make a huge difference in Auburn. – J.J.

CHEERS to St. Theresa of Avila Church for the great After Blood Drive breakfasts.  But, JEERS to the server who ate food dropped onto the counter and then picked up pancakes to put on the plates (all with the same hand). Get a clue on sanitary procedures. – R.D.
