Popular platform: Regarding the person who called about the Junior-Senior Egg War. You probably can’t accept that your child isn’t the perfect angel you think she is.
Popular platform: Hutchinson Gas and Electric provided a free gas furnace safety check. Then, because the heating and plumbing (companies) complained about taking their jobs, the gas company stopped doing it all together.
