Kudos/Demerits (non-inclusive)

Kudos:

1) Path Plowers
Those responsible for clearing snow from the Midtown Greenway, as well as from all the paths around Lake Calhoun, Isles, etc. You guys rock!

Demerits:

1) Hot water abusers
People who take abnormally long showers in the morning, using up all the hot water at exactly the same time everyone else is getting up wanting to take a relaxing hot shower.

2) Non-shovelers
(a) People who don't shovel their sidewalks and/or (b) people with homes on street corners, who don't understand that it's their responsibility to shovel the sidewalk on both sides of their house, and that at the street corner proper, they're supposed to shovel all the way out to the curb on both sides.

and, saving the worst for last ...

3) Liars
People who post profiles on online dating sites, portraying themselves as single, only to disclose later (after you've wasted a ton of time getting to know them) that they're actually unhappily MARRIED.
