Joe Montonati came from Montrose and said, “I sure wish I’d have gotten one of those for Nick,” his disabled son who couldn’t make the trip. Jared Hensley turned and…
Why, then, is so much of humanity not truly free? We have domestic terrorists in our midst who seek to destroy our way of life, out-of-control government and law enforcement,…
This is all coming about, apparently, from the new legislation attached to Medicare. At least, this is what I have been led to understand. From my end, I only know…
Outside cats should be registered, background checks be submitted on the owner (at the owner’s expense) and a limited number of claws per paw allowed. Felonious cats should be incarcerated…
Our forefathers had no idea that any citizen could send a message to thousands of people simultaneously and instantaneously through emails and texting or that crazy, evil people and those…
The madness is not just out there but within every person’s mind. Considering the Boston terrorists’ act, we might ask, how is it possible that the other can inflict such…
I guess you might make a wave-powered generator work in a boat shooting the rapids. Maybe a water wheel (well-proven technology) could replace the energy consumed pumping Animas water to…
Brodsky also has put his money where his mouth is. He purchases only green energy, and his goal is local renewable energy while holding true to our mission statement. We…
Brodskys engineering and management backgrounds prepared him well to help oversee the important functions of the association. His experience as an involved community citizen has helped him really know the…
Still, the wounds are being salted and deepened by well-meaning friends who have turned their love for the Aalands into an attack on the college. This saddens me deeply. As…
Whether you are a Democrat against gun rights or a Republican against pro-choice, we must demand the person we send to Denver is the same person we voted for. In…
Recently, I spent a morning with a bright, inquisitive, respectful group of first-graders from Fort Lewis Mesa Elementary School at Durango Nature Studies Center. Their eager questions and observations were…
I recycle plastic, glass, paper, boxes and plastic bags already, and I do not need the city trying to charge me for using bags. I will be shopping in Farmington…
Buchanan also politely implies that anyone opposed to this very new technology is irrational, uneducated and basically a Luddite. I have been opposed to GM foods for more than 20…

I have served on boards with Brodsky through the years and know him to be a man who respects the diversity of the members he serves. He is thoughtful as…
My own experience with Brodsky has convinced me of his dedication, his willingness to work hard and his ability to be a leader. When Brodsky takes on a task, he…
Let us benefit from Herb’s many years of experience as a LPEA board member and community advocate. I encourage you to vote for Herb Brodsky, LPEA board member, District 4.…
I’m voting for Michael Rendon in District 3 for his proven leadership, commitment and vision. The decisions surrounding how we get our energy should be made with a clear vision…
As far as Chris goes, if in fact the Aalands consulted with a lawyer, the college cannot and will not publicly comment. That silence tells me there was a reason,…
The celebrity trolls who currently reign on commercial television read from the same corporate script. They spin the same gossip. They ignore what the corporate state wants ignored. They champion…

Jerry’s heart is so big and his love for people is his primary thought every day. He helped me through some tough times in my life as he has so…
Three years ago, I was “blacklisted” by a well-known FLC art teacher, then gallery director, from applying to the gallery to show work. “Blacklist” was his word. I asked for…
