We have started a weekly question on Facebook to our fans and so far the response has been great.
Facebook interactions also led us to Saints fans as we prepared for the Super Bowl.
Snow predictions
Last week’s Facebook question was – How much was it going to snow in Attala County?
Here are a few responses from our facebook fans:
•
“I'm counting on the weather men and women being right this time ... I want some snow ice cream!!!!”
•
“Two inches...but I would just as soon not have any!”
•
“Three inches. that's my guess. if the low tracks just a hair more north than expected possibly four.”
Twitter
I know the Twitter craze has not truly caught in Kosciusko and Attala County yet.
You should give it a try!
Kosciusko Mayor Jimmy Cockroft has Twitter and there are so many other sources of entertainment and media that give instant information.
As I close this column remember – We DO want to HEAR from you! Make no mistake about it. You are our second set of eyes and ears!

We are a changed nation
Ten years ago come Sunday, a handful of fanatical thugs flew hijacked American airplanes into American buildings and what both we and the rest of the world had always thought of as America began to almost immediately change. Today, that 10-year-ago image is but a memory.
