  • Valor7: Actually no it is not, a dependable Revenue stream will not come on line until the 4th quarter of 2017 so 2018 budget will be up in the air, not quite sure what they will have. By 2019 budget all will be well.

  • Valor7: I could have worded that better, we talked details, options, the pros and cons of each, in  order to arrive at the best ballot language to present to the voters. Hope that makes this clearer.
    April 15, 2016, 06:36:14 PM
  • Valor7: sorry about the typos still working with just one arm in action
    April 13, 2016, 01:10:42 PM
  • Valor7: Yes and no. We talked details and options until we were blue in the face but I never heardbring it over, it was always the time was not right for the issue to pass. Glad to see the time in now right and I for one shall vote yes on the ballot. I would urge all others to do the sameour county is busting at the seams crimewise and no matter how many bad guys we send off there always seems to someone to replace them. The Sheriff's Office needs the help.

You could drive on I-44, and not pass a car for miles.
You can remember when I-44 didn't exist - am I that old ? Good grief !

Had a two thousand dollar car AND a $15 CB radio.  AM FM, no stereo enhancements.  Pinto Stationwagon.  I think Eeyore said something about them earlier.  Crazy.

Leaving the Shrine Circus early just to go home and watch the moon landing on TV.  Lotsa family there because we could all go to the circus (dad was a Shriner) but not everyone had a TV.  B&W of course.  What a day!

Don't know much about that but am curious about the "original Oasis" truck stops.  Maybe another thread for this?  Not just that place but just plain local history.  Anyone of the locals want to start it?  Or has it already been started?

Yes! The moon landing was a big deal. We had friends over and champagne was part of the evening.  A real celebration.  I grew up in the city where they made Apollo so it was a very important part of town. As a young Boy Scout we took a tour of the factory.  Got to see a plywood mockup of the Future Space Shuttle Columbia!
