Two Questions
Why does our county have to pay contractors to remove and receive thousands of board-feet of valuable lumber?
Shouldn’t these companies be paying the county and private property owners for this lumber?
I also wonder if the Valley fire victims are receiving the state’s annual illegal fire tax bills at their homes which no longer exist?
Democrat led government hard at work.

Mercury in the lake
If mercury in the lake is so toxic and the bass are so full of it, why aren’t the bass themselves affected?
They’re doing fine. Otters eat fish every day of their lives and they’re reproducing just fine. What gives?
Could it be EPA employees are just protecting their phoney baloney jobs?

Closing, but staying
Due to circumstances out of our control and with mixed emotions, my husband, Tom and I closed our auto repair business, Tom’s AutoDynamics on April 13, 2016.
We opened our shop January 2005 and with gratitude to our loyal customers and our community, we have managed a successful business.
We have found in life that it is important to stay tuned into divine guidance and to trust when we are given signs to change directions. We explored many avenues to continue with our business, but when the doors we opened continued to close, it was clear it was time.
Our success was due to coming from a place of integrity, doing our best to generate good quality repairs and standing behind our work.
To our customers, thank you again from the bottom of our hearts for your support, without you we would not have had a successful business. Through our business we have developed many friendships and we are grateful.
We are not leaving the area. We are looking forward to the adventure ahead, which will continue to include the rebuilding of our home.

Waste of money
Many Lake County residents, including myself, could have saved the county taxpayers $60,000 plus.
Spending that amount of money for a consulting firm’s analysis of how to improve Lake County’s image was ridiculous. Gee, I can’t wait for the results. I bet it will be to improve the lake.
Haven’t we heard this hundreds of times already?

Vinegar kills fungus
Some forms of fungus are fatal to man. Man breathes the spores of fungus and the fungus eventually covers the lungs to the extent that the lungs cannot absorb the oxygen necessary for life.
I have read in medical literature of the capacity of vinegar to kill fungus, but I have never read of vinegar being applied to the lungs, which would render fungus in any form harmless to man.
Vinegar can be applied to the lungs in the form of vapor by infusing the mouth with vinegar, swallowing the vinegar then breathing deeply through the mouth, releasing the breath through the nose (to avoid losing the vapor left in the mouth) then taking another deep breath through the mouth and repeating this process until there is no longer enough vinegar in the mouth to vaporize the breath.
Repeating this process three or four times may be considered a treatment. And doing this three or four times a day should eventually clear the lungs of fungus.
Inhaling the vinegary vapor the first tow or three times will have to be done slowly, for vinegar is a powerful diluent and can make one cough.
I hope someone more versed in the medicinal effects of vinegar than I will make any deterrent to this modus operandi known through this space.
