  • He should have used the card to buy a real haircut.

During a shopping trip to Wal-Mart in Strongsville last month, David Dickerson and his wife Gloria were strolling behind a kindly old lady.

The 72-year-old, perusing tube socks and discount laundry detergent and probably buying gifts for her great-grandchildren, mistakenly dropped her bank card on the floor.

It happens. You hope in these situations that the person who retrieves the missing card is a good person, one with a kind heart and a sense of decency and right and wrong.

The Dickersons are not these people.

    You have cruel comments about another and
    you really should practice what you preach. Vulgarity, is this all you know?
    Re-read what you typed boy Richard …
    First of all the first letter of a sentence should be capitalized.
    “he should of got a better hair.”

    He should have got a better hair, what? Finish your sentence.
    And your word “cant” is also not correct.
    Here is the educational definition to the word you typed
    “CANT”

    1. insincere, esp. conventional expressions of enthusiasm for high ideals, goodness, or piety.
    2. the private language of the underworld.

    4. whining or singsong speech, esp. of beggars.
    –verb (used without object)
    5. to talk hypocritically.
    6. to speak in the whining or singsong tone of a beggar; beg.

    To refresh my memory of the old days, I asked for some Dailies of the thirties from the morgue, sat down at the large round oak table at the end of the editorial room on the second floor, and began riffling through the musty pages. Soon a burly middle-aged man appeared and seated himself at the table to peruse some recent issues of the paper and take notes. —Arthur Miller, Timebends, 1987
    I’ve even found myself idly perusing the Yellow Pages, not frantic for a plumber, just browsing. —Lesley Conger, Writer, October 1968
    Bessie asked if I would have a book … , and I begged her to fetch Gulliver’s Travels from the library. This book I had again and again perused with delight. —Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre, 1847
