Billboards are an eyesore

Last year it was put out to the public that the eyesore billboards along Highway 160 that were not permitted and within compliance would be removed. What happened?

Seems we have more than we ever had before. It sure makes for an ugly drive. When our family and friends from out of town come here they ask how we can stand the horrible trashy 100k along the highway.

In support of Nye County Animal Shelter

My interaction with the Nye County Animal Shelter has been 100% positive. The facility is excellent and well run by superior people. This is a clear case of “it it isn’t broken, don’t attempt to fix it.”

The amount of money we’re subsidizing the shelter with is miniscule compared to the horrendous waste for a jail and other Nye County projects.

Privatizing the animal shelter is fraught with potentially dangerous outcomes. Who exactly will provide oversight? This is a potential disaster for all of us, including the animals.

Just as my faith in humanity is being restored, another incident at our store reminds me to think twice.

As I was reading the Pahrump Valley Times and the story about traffic problems, it made me think of what drivers should do frequently before getting behind the wheel.

President Johnson previously held the record for pardons, with about 7,000. Joe Biden broke that record with over 8,000 pardons.

If Gov. Newsom wants to facilitate reconstruction, he might also request technical help from those running states and municipalities who actually know how to encourage development rather than relying on those expert in killing it.
