Last week in “Days of Our Nine Lives,” the ARF cats said goodbye to Cheerio and two puppies, then hello to Sassy. Little Girl: Well, that was a quiet weekend! Sassy: Maybe for you, but I got to take another walk in town on Sunday. It was so much fun! Anabel: I heard that you…
Editor: I would like to respond to the letter from Nicole Lovett that ran in your Sept. 28 edition. In that letter, Ms. Lovett asserts that evolution is a theory, not a fact, using Webster’s dictionary to define fact. I would suggest she go back to the dictionary and look up the word theory, because…
Editor: Old people love word searches. Old people can’t see small things. Your “Word Search” is so small it is nearly impossible to do. The font size makes for considerable eye strain. Not to mention that your “Word Search” answers are impossible for even 20 year olds to read. Please consider enlarging them. Patsy Bauman…
Last week in “Days of Our Nine Lives,” the ARF cats’ heads were spinning with the news of some very quick adoptions. Little Girl: I think we need to put a revolving door on the ARF House!

Last week was productive for the Snow Group. On Tuesday, we met with California State Sen. Jeff Stone at his Murrieta office. We shared with him a PowerPoint presentation, which illustrated the Hill’s snow-play visitor problems and proposed solutions. Stone and District Representative Darrell Connerton immediately understood Idyllwild’s challenges and responded favorably to our proposals….
I have strong beliefs, as many of you do. My goal in writing this column was to encourage cogitation, not create controversy, but, of course, they often go hand in hand. Therefore, when a few readers have responded negatively, I read their responses but could find no value in continued arguments in print. Everyone is…
Editor: Since when are we allowing large wooden billboards from off-the-Hill companies to advertise on our beautiful mountain? Driving along 243 recently, I noticed New Horizons Carpet has put up an obnoxious, two-direction, large billboard. This is not Hemet or any other city. This needs to go.
