Bug Bites & Gun Control

by Prospector | 1:28 pm, March 15, 2013

I just received a Jefferson County Public Health Department “public service announcement” forwarded by the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department telling me: 1) “Wild or Domestic Animal Bites Should Be Reported” 2) “…that all wild animal or domestic pet bites or attacks must be reported…” 3) “…everyone is asked to have their cats, dogs, ferrets, and [...]

Second Amendment Attack

by Prospector | 9:10 am, February 20, 2013

As most Coloradans have noticed over the past few weeks, our second amendment rights have been under attack – nationally as well as under our Capital’s dome.

As I listened to Secretary Tim Geithner’s diatribe today on why we should change the tax code, I couldn’t help recall my disgust at he having a leadership role at the IRS. Supposedly these tax code changes are necessary to “eliminate [certain] loopholes for companies and some wealthy individuals” who don’t follow the same rules [...]
