Change of address
I guess Congressman Gary Condit is going to have to change his stationery:
The Honorable Gary A. Condit

NIMBY and
proud of it

      As an 11-year resident of Oak Park, I feel it is my responsibility to speak out against the impact that 140,000 sq. ft. of Home Depot will have on my beloved community.

Adamantly opposed to the Home Depot
      As an Agoura Hills resident, I am adamantly opposed to the proposed Home Depot project. Not only because of the traffic nightmare that would ensue from such a project, but also because a Home Depot type of establishment will certainly turn our quaint community into another noisy, traffic-laden town...

Calabasas was going to support Pumpkin Festival
      The Aug. 16 letter from Alan Unger, heaping shame on the Calabasas City Council for not supporting the annual Pumpkin Festival, was based on a falsehood. Apart from Dennis Washburn, who recused himself due to a financial conflict of interest, the city council voted unanimously to make our usual $25...

Are success and possessions overrated?
      Why is it that we grow old too soon and wise too late? "How did we get here so quickly?" I ask myself and, "Are these 30-something kids really ours?"

Labor Day is another reason
to fly Old Glory

      Before all of the flower, bunny, birthday and holiday flags become a home decorating fashion item with so many homeowners, there was just the Stars and Stripes to hang out on special days.
