Wonderful pictures of Clark County.

One of the few great things I love from local newspaper is they have a WONDERFUL picture gallery.

(Due to copyright laws and some egregious examples of heavy handed enforcement in the US of news stories and photographs along with their digital conversions from the current multiple differing versions of the snoozemedia, I will not republish the work here. If you are interested, please take a look for yourself through the link and enjoy! :-)

I have always wondered WHY the photographers for years have not had been up for awards for their work??

Do you tire of the political tomfoolery?

Some may not know that I have followed various controversies for near fifteen to twenty years. From the Vancouver (Washington) Police Department lawsuits involving Chris Kershaw, Sharma and a few others to the Columbia River Crossing Project. Yet, you don't see the average citizen except for the average person undertand what is going on and their still seems to remain an apathy and a "who cares? attitude" amongst local politicians and citizenry.

Do you hear the local people actually demanding in great numbers for change? A politician stand up for a citizen?

May be I'm just tired of what I see, is a lot of special interests here getting their way. I do have a love for the people here in Clark County and the business people I have met here. Why do I feel the government at some many different levels is just so out of touch with reality?

**Sigh** Maybe its time for me to move to a REAL Community that cares about its people instead of the game playing I see happening. I have been hear on and off for near 25+ years and it seems to be that nothing has changed. Even with the newest generation (my generation) of politicians...

Why should I have to continue to waste my time and the time of people I know that bust their asses off, yet every time some thing comes up, it gets ignored or told, no we can't do that?
