KVNI: Sold out and turned off
I can't believe that our radio station, KVNI, has sold out to ESPN! I have lived in this area for more than 35 years and always enjoyed the music that they played, especially the "Oldies." I turn the radio on to li…
BEAR: Headless letters accepted
I have traveled to most parts of the world and recently returned from Africa where I encountered hippopotami, cape buffalo, hyenas and a multitude of other forms of wildlife I would prefer facing than a grizzly bea…
The death of teen suicide
When it comes to our children, suicide is everyone's problem.
BEARS: Headless in Sleepy Hollow
The Sept. 7 letter by Diane Maass (Bear: Killing just isn't right) certainly hit a responsive note for me. Ms. Maass of Sleepy Hollow, N.Y., wrote at length about the bear shooting episode in Boundary County.
LOUD: Please, turn it down
On Friday Aug. 26, a "Rock Hard at the Park" was held at the Greyhound Park and Event Center in Post Falls. It started at 3:10 p.m. and continued until 10 p.m. However, starting Thursday night until 10 p.m., then a…

9/11: Fuel for new patriotism
I remember exactly what I was doing when the planes hit the towers, just as many of us probably do. It was the first time for me I actually felt "injured" as an American. I was 23 years old. Since then I have had m…
COUNTY: Raises defy all reason
It amazes me to watch what happens when good conservative people become government leaders. I'll bet not one of the commissioners would lay off a worker in their business and decide to take the money saved and just…
FARRAGUT: Here's to Martin Apelman
I wanted to reply to the woman who wrote the item on "Farragut ode to its reunion," by Terri Doughty. I thought she might like to know that Martin Apelman was stationed at Farragut in the 1940s. Perhaps her husband…
WOLVES: They were here first
Wolves are in the scope of hunters just two years after being removed from the Endangered Species List. The delisting of wolves has been premature on the part of the federal government and now their lives are in th…
KROC: Lawsuit brings out worst
I think the lawsuit filed against the Kroc Center is a Kroc (Sept. 2). If an accident occurred, seems to me that both parties were "not paying attention to their surroundings or those around them" and therefore bot…
JOBS: Take the lead anytime now
Dear Mr. Labrador:
