LETTER: A tale of bureaucratic bungling

My Nevada driver’s license expired in April. Being of a certain age, I had to appear in person to get it renewed. I could not get a renewal appointment at the DMV. The DMV recognized this problem and sent out a letter — to be carried with my “expired” license — giving me a one-year extension.

Later, I need some help from the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services. Officials there required my license as part of this process. Recently, I was informed by agency officials that the DHHS goes by the bar code on the back of the license and “does not cooperate with the DMV extension letter.” The department will not provide any assistance until I get a renewed license.

Have you heard of anything so stupid?

Biden is constantly harping on how Trump is a threat to democracy and will be a dictator, eliminating our freedoms. It is Biden, however, who has proven himself the dictator who is threatening democracy.

LETTER: More on 1968

As a cop who was at not only at the 1968 Democratic convention at the Conrad Hilton on Michigan Avenue, but also the Chicago arson fires on the west side, I feel there were many reasons why the city was a tinderbox.

A lot of us walk or jog in the summer nights when it cools down. The juice vendor was a wonderful break before starting the return half of our exercise. Alas, never more.
