Re: “Mark Barker rushed to hospital, recovery expected

Mark is one of the hardest working Representatives that I have met lately; having met 4 in the last year and asking them all about their agenda's (ok, maybe 5) and he is all business and trying to best represent the wishes of the God-fearing people of this state to perpetuate and increase the goodwill of the people.

Re: “Black Forest Fire 75 percent contained

It's been almost a week and still NO word on the deceased persons.

What's up with that?

Curious. 'The Loopy one'. That covers a huge number. Which one?

Re: “How evacuees can find hotel rooms in Colorado Springs

If your travel plans are firm, you can save money by going to their website and prepaying in advance. Overall, a very good stay. http://www.smartfun.it/ can help more .

glad to hear that they are starting to get the fire under control. so sad to see how many families are impacted by this tragedy. my thoughts and prayers go out to all those with loss of homes, possessions, and even those that have lost loved ones.

Re: “One Black Forest story: Honey hub destroyed in fire

A beehive is a superorganism - on par with a mammal. So to most beekeepers, losing a hive is on par to losing a dog or a horse would be to most people. I can't imagine losing 35.

And haven't you heard how the honeybees are dying? Those 35 hives mean precious genetics are lost. Forever. At least a house can be rebuilt. The world isn't getting those 35 queen's genetics back.

We as a society need to start appreciating bees more.

My condolences to the Hartleys.

Re: “One Black Forest story: Honey hub destroyed in fire

So sorry to hear about the house. They were our neighbors for 19 years before we moved and still remains our favorite neighbor.

Re: “Waldo Canyon Fire: 'They didn't know what they were getting into'

Note the conspicuous absence of kudos in the Federal Narrative to the Mayor and Fire Chief. Reason? Both were completely negligent, were clueless about the Incident Command System, and should be removed from the positions they occupy.
