Events must appeal to wide variety of interests
I just heard that we may be losing a couple of events at the fairgrounds. My family and I do not go to the horse events. We attend the fair, but we really enjoy going to the mud drags and the demo derby. I just can't understand how the fairgrounds, having sell-outs for both of these events can stop them because the horse people are crying about how the arena was built for them and not for motor sports.

'Neighborhood bear' was not true hunting
I was sickened by the caption and photo in the Bonner County Daily Bee (Thursday, Sept. 13) of a dead black bear lying in the back of a Lexus. Perhaps instead of boasting about the "luxury ride" for his prey in a very expensive automobile, Cory Howard might have been more honest about how he killed this bear on opening day of archery season.

County needs to let museum stay open
I am writing to express my sentiments regarding the Bird museum. It is not often that a gift is so generously given to a community of the caliber of the Bird Museum. Not only has Dr. Forrest Bird saved countless lives with the invention of his various respirators, but he has also, through his museum, paid tribute to many, many people, of all walks of life, who have affected nearly everyone's daily lives through their various inventions. Wealthy individuals often are ridiculed for their lifestyles, no matter how they spend their money, and it is very sad that the small-minded petty jealousies of a few interfere with the ability to appreciate a gift given from the heart and the big picture of true charity demonstrated by the Birds.

You know the saying: get involved, get hammered. Not one of the blogs, pro or con, mentioned that most of his work is gratis.
