Small town news in the big city
You want to know what makes headline news in my hometown Hollister, I ask my friends in Hollywood. I show them the headline of the Hollister Fifty Cent Lance June 13 edition: “District has paid lunch worker.” They can’t wait until next week’s paper.
They also love that front page picture of my old pal Richard Boomer and his grandson Dacoda Miracle in front of all of Boomer’s animal head trophies as he and other hunters have to switch from lead bullets which were outlawed July 1. Hope the deer can tell the difference as copper bullets blow their brains out as opposed to lead bullets which were found to be harmful to the environment, or is environment Bambi’s last name? Aye chee waa waa!
San Benito County Public Defender Greg La Forge pleads conflict of interest and cannot defend disgraced former Deputy Michael Rodrigues. Ditto Harry Damkar, the former district attorney. Quite frankly I think Rodrigues is lucky not to have either one. But shouldn’t the sheriff and some of his staffers really be the ones on trial?
Loved this headline in the Los Angeles Times: “Bush falls short of goals in North Korea.” Newsflash to the L.A. Times: Bush didn’t do even that good right here in the United States.
Deputies find 10,000 pot plants on Fremont Peak. So? What better place to get high? Don’t ask me how I know. Aye chee waa waa!
Speaking of high, Ruch Erickson does it without pot (I think) but with planes. Ruth seems to be the lone voice of the positive things that happen out at the Hollister Airport. I’m waiting for them to offer free one-way tickets to two incumbent supervisors, thus saving Hollister taxpayers more money than the search for Jimmy Hoffa. I still believe Hoffa is buried under the Ding A Ling.
And is Ruben Garcia the luckiest guy in Hollister? The District Attorney will not press charges for costs in the four-hour standoff that cost Hollister taxpayers more than Measure T. Garcia, though, will have to forego the son of the year award as the standoff was reportedly precipitated by the fact that Garcia had shot his mother in the face.
Never in my lifetime did I ever think I would see almost the entire front page of the Pinnacle devoted to a San Benito couple planning to get married. Of course they’re gay or it would not have been front-page news.
Still laughing at that picture of Hollister fireman James Rossi sitting on the bumper of Son of Super Truck with the caption “James Rossi’s full-time position with the Hollister Fire Department …”
Loved my son David’s capsule review of the new “Get Smart.” Think “Get Smart” produced by Disney.
The judge all set to hear a big porn trial here in Hollywood has to dismiss himself when it was found he had more porn on his home computer than that Hollister man of the cloth.
I grew up in the 800 block of Fifth Street in Hollister so I wasn’t the least bit surprised about that story about a groom hitting the caterer in the face on that block. The same thing happened at my wedding reception at 817 Fifth St. in 1958. The caterer was a roach mobile which promised but didn’t deliver “tacos y mas tacos.”
Hey Bob: No check at all? Send me June receipts, and any other loose ones hanging around, so I can ship them through for your 07 ‘spences! With all the fires up here, it’s so smoky that it’s almost like living in Los Angeles!
