Response to Lloyd Dickson’s letter of Dec. 15

I never said or indicated in any way that “well-offs” shouldn’t pay their fair share. I said (in essence) that anyone who thought that only the “well-off’s” are going to get stuck with the bill needs to renew their subscription to “Fairies Live Among Us” magazine. Regarding the Patriot Act, if there’s a provision contained within it…

Gift ideas for Christmas

Pam Wanner5 years ago3 mins

Dear Editor, This Christmas give somebody the gift of mercy and forgiveness. Be broad with your giving and be generous. We all need a lot of both. For such a joyful holiday of cheer, giving, and yuletide merriment, there is much to be stressed about. Typically, people have been stressed about all the holiday parties, gatherings, and Christmas scheduling. This year there is more stress related to sickness, masks, vaccinations, Omicron, natural disasters, filled hospitals, massive numbers of funerals, and inflation.

We are not in a water crisis, and may never be

Matthew Wanner5 years ago3 mins

Dear Editor, Two recent trends have become evident around Kingman; one is the increase in population and the other is farming in the Hualapai Valley. Both should be cause for celebration, because others are discovering the livability and quality of life that has long been evident to locals.But the growth has created a sense of urgency among elected and appointed officials.
