Working with state offices in the central Washington area several years ago was vastly diffrent than the more populated area's of the state. Central Washington caseloads was about double per worker compared to more populated areas. I can only assume that is still the case. So if Wenatchee & other central offices put in overtime. It is justified.
Oh Dave, I understand what you where trying to blog about but you typed yourself into an offensive corner of defensive commenting. The blog caption um, not so bad but to put blight in the 1st sentance was provoking the responces you have received. I have to admit that I was amused by all the good people that spanked you on this one. I'm still smiling as I type this as I was not offened @ your discriptions in blog & comments. You see I have no yard just weeds & no I didn't make that happen I was given it that way & then the economy took a dump. I hate everyday coming home to weeds. I have idea's about what I want to do with it but if someone decided to scratch their authoritive itch & come on by & demand I do something more before the money becomes steady again then you would not see me smilling as I explain to them how to remove themselfs from my property & how not to get lost exiting my neighborhood. Now if they showed up with tools in hand & said it looks like your struggling how can we help you, I'd be glad to put them to work. Unfortunately cleaning up actually has prep & plant behind it & prep & plant cost money so until money is steady clean will not happen. I'll just mow the weeds untill prep & plant can be afforded. So maybe you should be more delicate when blogging about blight in your Valley because you just don't know why. FYI I live nowhere near the area you refer to.
Norm, You said it, copy paste & here it is"I couldn't care less about what you (and others) like to call "Politically Correct"; as I said, I'm interested in morality and human decency. You can label it however you like, but the label you apply to my perspective doesn't change it."..................... You jumped right on the band wagon & decided I need a morality & human decency lesson but I ask you to read my comment again & this time without your KEY WORDS mind set.. Maybe it's you with smoldering hatred so much so you read what you wanted & not what's said.
Norm now that you have cruised through my comment, why don't you read the rest of it. Don't school me as in race issue.. There is 3500+hundred acers down in AZ that states at own risk because it's to dangerous to even patrol... That's U.S. soil, WHY because the Drug Cartels have control of it & you know their(drug cartel) services go to the highest bidder so if a terrorist wants in just pay the cartel & your in. Sorry if you don't understand what illegal product meant but DRUGS was my meaning...Get ahold of yourself..
Good artical BUT crime rates in Arizona are down because they now need to post signs saying things like this area is nolonger patroled, Enter at your own risk. So this means we up here still have our land & Arizona is being squeezed out of theirs. Like a cancer it will spred up here too. If we had no end users of the product being moved illegally into the U.S.A. then we would have no issues. SO why don't you end users go to the border & protect the rest of us & we'll take the hard working illegals & protect them. I think that's fair as it can get... Then the government can patrol the end users, not so hard to do when their high..
This so bring a smile to my face. The memories of finding the broke down fellow riders. The calls @ any moment to drop what your doing or wake to get a complete stranger back on 2 wheels. Riding upon a broken car with frightened people surrounded by biker only to have them cry with happiness because we were the only ones to pull over & fix their problem. Their words"we will never forget the scruffy biker that saved our day" they where on their way to a family member whom was in a severe car crash. They made it just in time to say good bye & god was with us to have you find us in need god bless you Chainsaw & bumper, the voicemail said.........Dead Joe we had some great times!!!
Jeez people. They'll find him & I'm guessing since he was more honest about wanting her to die. then I guess 15 day in jail & 30 days home monitoring so he should be out if caught in 8 days & 15 on home monitoring OH! I for got possible other charges to look @ so 20 days in jail & 40 home monitoring.....
Cooler weather on the way, for a short while
