LTEs are fun

I guess the “worst form of child abuse” bit was taken to heart by some. Others are just nutty.
Check out these sweet LTEs from City View:
Three wishes
My first wish would be to provide free Kum & Go milk coupons to all mothers with young children who play the Lottery’s TouchPlay machines at their neighborhood convenience stores. And even better would be free childcare at new Kum & Go/Iowa Lottery daycare centers for Gold Card TouchPlay members. My second wish is install the new Lottery TouchPlay machines at all I-235 & I-80 rest stops. Each player would receive a free Iowa road map or visitors guide. The state of Iowa could put the new TouchPlay machines on the front of their 2007 Iowa visitors guide as a new activity for the entire family. The new Iowa road maps would have decals noting all TouchPlay locations on I-235 and I-80 rest stops. My third and last wish is to draft Bill Krause (owner of Kum & Go) and Ed Stanek (Iowa Lottery czar) as independent candidates for Iowa governor. All net revenues from TouchPlay could fund their campaigns. Just think of a new Grant Wood painting with Bill and Ed. A great utopia and we would all prosper. God, I’m glad I live in Iowa.

Kids playing with themselves
Rep. Dawn Pettengill is taking the wrong tack sponsoring a bill to ban the sale of sex toys to children (”Bad Vibrations,” Feb. 9). She doesn’t want minors to see or have certain devices designed for sexual stimulation. If sexual stimulation is Pettengill’s concern, a better solution would be to pass a law requiring minors to wear mittens at all times when they are in their bedrooms or bathrooms. That should effectively prevent sexual stimulation and would alienate only minors who don’t vote, while Pettengill’s bill would alienate shop owners who do vote and who also pay much-needed taxes.
