Missouri man dies of injuries after Saturday motorcycle accident
Posts should be closed on all fatality or life threatening accidents. Not even condolences are appropriate from the anonymous contributors to the LJW

LOL, loved the letter from WOW CEO that was signed Hugger, Mother and Keeper of the Culture. Did not have an experience yesterday that was "Building a better cable experience" either.

Father of slain toddler grieves in Missouri jail
This poor man made all those horrible choices and contributed to the death of his wife and daughter because of those life choices he made. His time in prison will probably not be well spent in developing life skills that will make him a better person. Just another piece of flotsam on the sea of life.

State officials working overtime to keep up with concealed-carry permits
Too bad the State wasn't working OT to get the through all the mess earlier this year when the pricey new system wasn't working correctly. Should have been a back up plan (by hand) then.

Truancy policies can catch parents by surprise
Sorry the lady has migraines but she is still responsible for getting the child to school on time. If she has friends perhaps they could help on those morning she is disabled with migraines. And that poor kid was sent home from school one time for possible strept\ throat? Wow, that school nurse should be whipped for not buying those medical supplies that would show immediately if the kid had strep? Sounds like the same kind of mother who would be up in arms over her kids visit to the nurse if she wasn't notified. Bet all those horror stories alluded to by the other folks who posted have validity also because they said it was true. Buck up parents and do your job and that job is being responsible for your child. The second largest problem in schools is poor, lazy parenting.
