Many Americans, like you, me and all our friends, simply want to recognize that the vast majority of
starts this Friday -- and continues each and every Friday until the troops all come home, sending a deafening message that .. every red-blooded American who supports our men and women afar, will wear something red. By word of mouth, press, TV -- let's make the If every one of us who loves this country will share this with acquaintances, coworkers, friends, and family, it will not be long before the USA is covered in RED and it will let our troops know the once "silent" majority is on their side more than ever, certainly more than the media lets on. The first thing a soldier says when asked "What can we do to make things better for you?" is: "We need your support and your prayers." Let's get the word out and lead with class and dignity, by example, and wear something red every Friday. Respectfully,

THE I was very pleased to see such a huge turnout at last night’s Council meeting and to view the presentations prepared by Tower Investments and Empire Commercial. This increased citizen participation clearly shows the degree of involvement all inhabitants of the greater Tehachapi area and their interest in weighing in on the future development of the City’s expansion. While I spoke in favor of the Capital Hills site, the greater preponderance seemed more inclined to favor the Empire’s artist renderings look very inviting with lots of green spaces and attractive designs. The addition of senior housing would be wonderful since these citizens would actually be able to walk to both City Hall and the adjoining shops and restaurants. It would be a boon to them. Also, with a new supermarket there (Slater’s?) the 3000 plus residents in the immediate area would no longer have to drive the one mile distance to already crowded Albertson’s or Save Mart unless they wanted to and not because they had to. And, who knows, wouldn’t it be nice to have a Famous Dave’s BBQ and perhaps a Trader Joe’s and Pier One Imports, etc.? Maybe even a Michael’s Art Store and Red Lobster. Yummm! I think we’re on a roll and thank you one and all for standing up for Tehachapi. Jim Richards YOUR CHANCE TO WEIGH IN! On Monday, Oct. 8, 2008 there will be a special meeting of the City Council at 6pm at the Veteran’s Hall on If you never attend another Council meeting in your lifetime, this is the one you should not miss. This decision will affect us all for generations to come. Stand up and SPEAK! Robert’s Rules of Order, of which the Council abides, states that a person who wishes to speak must remain seated until someone at the speaker’s podium has finished and then walk swiftly to the podium and speak INTO the microphone. The entire proceeding is being audio recorded and disks are available at City Hall at no charge for anyone who wishes to have them for later replay. Only by citizen participation can we ensure that this City Council will vote for the will of the PEOPLE and not their own private agenda’s. Bring your kids and grandma and anyone else you need to but…. BE THERE! Jim Richards To all those of you who give that insipid "jim" his open forum here I would like to share this with you and hope he reads it as well: There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. He asked her,'Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?' Respectfully, Jim Richards Lori, you are conspicuous by your absence. Are you OK? If you are just taking a break that's understandable. But, if you are having any problems and could use some assistance, please let us know. you have been a vital asset to these blogs. Best wishes, Jim Richards |
