Taxpayers share Todd's frustration I can understand the Hispanic community being upset at state Rep. Curry Todd's remarks about "breeding like rats" (Nov. 12 article, "Angered Hispanics at Todd's doorstep / 'Rats' comment hits home for lawmaker"). There many good people in the Hispanic community. Many work two jobs just to survive. I do not agree, however, with this being compared to the way Italian immigrants were demonized or with any reference to Nazi Germany.
CCC leader should watch his words While I share in the frustration of Center City Commission president Paul Morris over the fact that it has taken more than two months for the city to reopen Madison Avenue Downtown between Main and Second after the collapse of an old building (May 30 article, "Dead-end street / Portion of Madison Ave. Downtown lies forsaken"), Morris could not have possibly worded his frustration more poorly: This would never happen "in a real city.

The DeSoto Board of Supervisors heard a Republican plea to help ease "frustration and confusion" about voting precincts, but in a tie vote declined to jump into an earlier phase of the process with the Election Commission.

S. Sen. Charles Schumer's latest airline-related focal point -- frequent-flier miles -- should resonate with anyone who takes to the skies on a regular basis. His call for a federal agency review of just how free, transparent and available frequent-flier programs and benefits are is worthwhile, although it would be skylarking to expect that the complicated formulas now in use for "free miles" will get any simpler soon. In calling for the Department of Transportation to regulate frequent-flier programs at commercial airlines, the senator is echoing the frustration of many business and leisure travelers navigating a system best described as at times confusing and downright Byzantine.
Karlis Pujats prefers to say little about the frustration he encountered a year ago. He'd rather toss the memory aside, much like the fiberglass pole he dismisses atop one of his ascents. It was during a warm-up session at the 2011 Conference USA Track and Field Championships that Pujats, a pole vaulter for the University of Memphis, injured his hamstring, rendering him unavailable for the C-USA finals and the ensuing postseason.

Don't blame gasoline retailers I read with sadness and frustration the comments from angry people about so-called price gouging at the pump. Once again, as a long-time gas retailer, I am labeled a price gouger because of an event that creates a panic-buying frenzy at the pump.
If the intent is to give voice to frustration with the National Basketball Association, a resolution passed by the Memphis City Council this week serves a purpose. The resolution calls for the council's attorney to explore a legal remedy for financial losses due to NBA labor problems.
