    Yes,, the bay is giving out the good stuff to the street rats.
    But the real need is up in Seattle where party weed is now legal like CO.
    There be a shortage! A “mule” train is needed. Not quite Donner party trouble,
    so no need to pack the emergency PB&J rations. From what I hear, Nevada Co.
    is having trouble unloading last years crop. Yes,, send it to the new legal “needy”.

    “Geez Jeff, what are you afraid of?”
    He’s afraid of losing control, of losing face. Of losing the argument he started; he studied Rhetoric, the art of crafting winning arguments, not the art of determining the truth, what is good or what is fair.
    Peeline recently wrote “Those folks are up in arms, reporting what is said here and taking it back to their “fort.” I think it’s all they have going on in their lives.”
    George’s blog isn’t a “fort”, Jeff, it’s an open forum, and it isn’t right wing, let alone “hard-right” wing, with all opinions welcome and no opinion safe from criticism. So unlike your sandbox. Quotes of yours are brought here precisely because they can be discussed here without each sentence meeting with your approval.
    The so-called “Sierra Foothills Report” truly is the FUE Fortress, where only the friends of Jeff Pelline may post unfettered. Your ego can’t afford people with opinions contrary to yours to have the ability to do what anyone can do at RR… counter the opinion of the host. While at any one time you may have a few people posting who aren’t in your Greek chorus, over time they all get chased away, leaving Bennie, Stevie and the occasional sock puppet with a real sounding name to cheer you on.
    Who is Annie Fox, Jeff? S/he only posts on your blog, generally when you’re not getting much traffic.

    The schools are out of order, and Meeks and Slade-Troutman went off the reservation to support Paul Haas to replace Superintendent Hermansen to try to fix it.
    The local schools have been on a slide for years, hidden by the demographics… it’s hard to sell poor performance to mathematically challenged local journalists when test scores are above average for the state.
    Compared to other English speaking populations of Euro-American students, Nevada County schools are doing horribly. But since local schools are practically devoid of “English language learners”, our test scores have been above Marin County which has a lot of ELL students that reduce their average. Our middle class white kids are doing POORLY compared to theirs, and others of the same demographic statewide, and it’s due to the schools in Nevada County, administrators and the teachers they have hired and retained.

    Western Gateway Park becoming a home to hard-right political activists
    Posted on July 11, 2014 by jeffpelline
    Editor’s note: We enjoy Western Gateway Park, and my nephew likes its disc golf course. But it also has become a home to hard-right political activism — hosting a “Nevada County Tea Party” and “State of Jefferson Town Hall meeting” in less than a two-week period. This is from the tea party website:

    July 6 was Universal Kiss Day. A kumbaya moment throughout the planet as people let bygones be bygones, peace erupted across the Middle East and the Syrian rebels played Yahtzee with the Syrian Army and trimmed each others’ beards. Even in Somalia, kissing broke out as in public and the Russian rebels drank massive amounts of vodka with the Ukrainian forces and cuddled up to bed time stories around the burn barrels. The Sunni’s even knelt down in prayer and smooching with the Shiites and said they were just joking over the last 60 days. This indeed was a Brother Ben moment.

    As a matter of fact, Pelline excessively moderates his blog. Jeff forbids comments from those who disagree with him.

I dare Jeff Pelline to post a single comment that I made in the past two weeks that was disrespectful which he refused to post. He cannot do it…he simply does not like the truth messing up his lies.

Of course, it does increase the hits on a website even if 95% of the posts are complete horse crap. Communication in the age of the world wide web, mostly bunk, rumor, fake science, and BS, much like the main stream media outlets.

    Actually RR’s sandbox entries are intended to be a forum for discussions and comments on any topic. RR’s readers are people of widely varying and strong beliefs. They meet here to present analyses of the human condition and express opinions thereon that range from baseless emoting to well-formed arguments which defend and/or explicate their positions. I initiated the sandbox format in order to provide an expanded latitude from my topical posts. The idea (hope?) being that then the comment streams and their derivative threads under such topical posts would hew more closely the topic at hand. This is an evolving format and seems to be working well.
    I have sometimes tried to ‘salt’ the discussion by offering one or two subject areas in the parenthetical intro to a sandbox. But as can be seen, readers have their own mind and often ignore my scribblings, in effect, telling me to buzz off because they have other things on their mind. And I’m quite content with that. So, do I moderate RR? Not really.
