"The elderly gentleman was seated in the booth directly across from my family as we ate dinner Saturday night at Eat'n Park in Belle Vernon. We really didn't see him come in. But we did notice when our server, Dylan, dropped to one knee to look him eye-to-eye as he got ready to take his order.

The man apologized for not hearing too well. He had forgotten to put in his hearing aids. He talked about how he lost his hearing during his time in the war. He was 91 years old with many stories to tell. Dylan patiently listened giving him his full attention.

Eventually the man apologized for talking so much. 'I'm alone now,' he said, 'and I don't often have someone to talk to.' Dylan smiled and said he enjoyed listening. He then helped him figure out what to order and left to take it to the kitchen. It was a touching sight.

I wanted offer to pay for the man's dinner, but before I could flag down Dylan, a man seated at a nearby booth asked Dylan to bring him his check. 'Someone's already taken care of it,' Dylan smiled.

I guess we weren't the only ones eavesdropping on the conversation. After the man received his food Dylan came back to say he was on a break.

He asked if he could sit with the gentleman as he ate. As we left the restaurant the two of them were conversing and many people seated nearby were smiling. It was a touching sight.

With all of the negative stories about our youth today this was a breath of fresh air. I wonder if I would have been as kind and attentive if I were the one working there.

One thing's for sure, if you are ever at Eat'n Park in Belle Vernon, ask for Dylan. If he's your waiter you're certain to get great service."

Pete Buttigieg is in another league.

They once asked him about how he’d respond to Donald Trump taking swipes at marriages like his.

His answer is one for the books:

“The idea of the likes of Donald Trump lecturing anybody on family values…

I mean, I’m sorry but one thing about my marriage is it’s never involved me having to send hush money to a porn star after cheating on my spouse, with him or her.

So, if they want to debate family values, let’s debate family values, I’m ready.”

Pete Buttigieg gives me hope for the future. He just has a great way of communicating.

Anyone else feel that way?

Exactly this…

Bill Hogan commented during yesterdays press release of #Policy713 saying “it’s no big deal” referring to kids coming out.

I retired from teaching one year ago. As I packed up me desk, I also pulled down the obituaries of my students from my bulletin board - students who all died by suicide. Students that I knew and cared for. Before Policy 713 was implemented. Every GSA teacher around the province would know of a student who died by or attempted suicide. HOW DARE YOU SAY “IT’S NO BIG DEAL.” #resign

What the actual? I’m so disappointed in YCDSB. Shame on you.

People just enjoying their down time shouldn’t need to worry about their safety. I am profoundly sad that violence continues to reign south of the border.
