And a different bear on the front page of Arcadia Patch. This is not going to end well. Did youRead More know that technically they were not here before us? Grizzly bears were here. They were all killed of by something like 1895. In 1933 some problem bears from Yosemite were relocated here. The current bears are all descendants from them. And like I have said before, over 10,000 miles of hiking, and trail running, and I have never seen a bear, lion, or Coyote in the mountains. Although Bears, and Lions do live in the mountains..and the city, I am pretty sure that almost all Coyotes live in the city. Griffith Park is the exception. The Coyotes are all through the park, up, and down. Their is also one Mountain Lion. "P-22" that was tagged, and re-released. Their goal is to find out how to best connectors, and bridge ways so that any, and all animals can freely travel from the Santa Monica, the San Gabriel's, and the Verdugo's. Eventually they plan to connect all of California. It goes on from there to include the whole country. Good, or bad? You decide.

OH! the blog won't let links, link-up. Well in 3 minutes you can google, and find all of this.

Joan, let me presume you generally understand how the government works, what it can, and can't do,Read More and what freedom of the press really means. If so, theoretically, would you agree that if my post, is correct, would be very disturbing? Would you also agree that because of political leanings, most of the main stream media ignores, and/or twists the events I described to alter public opinion, and minimize it's impact? All of the statements in my original post are factual, out there in the public, in print, on T.V., and the internet. http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2013/05/irs-official-in-charge-during-tea-party-targeting-now-runs-health-care-office/ http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-01-30/fed-maintains-85-billion-pace-of-purchases-as-growth-pauses.html It is also called qe3 to infinity, If you want a deeper understanding of what lies ahead, then read this guy everyday. He has predicted, and laid out every move for years. http://www.jsmineset.com/2012/09/21/qe3-to-infinitythe-final-end-game/ http://www.forbes.com/sites/ralphbenko/2013/03/11/1-6-billion-rounds-of-ammo-for-homeland-security-its-time-for-a-national-conversation/ I believe the above group of links above is spells it out. Thanks for the challenge. ....

Anyone can post a rant like this...if you can back up your statements with facts, then postRead More legitimate references.

Yep, B Ulm.... I was there all day. People were working really hard from early a.m. to clean upRead More time. I noticed plenty of smiles and laughter, some quick no-nonsense problem solving, and some really rather creative ways to tackle the project at hand. It was smaller scale, there was no carnival (Did the Tilt a Whirl with dried puke REALLY mean that much to you folks?!) Look, the pancakes tasty, kids cute, dunk booth busy. These people did their best, and this is coming from me, an admitted Mr.grumpy pants. Danielle, since you seem keen on helping out per your post, and would volunteer if you knew where to go to do so, please sign up to be the dunkee next year. We'd love to have ya...I might be old but I have one helluva fast ball.
B Ulm May 21, 2013 at 09:06 pm
Wow - what an insulting, non-constructive post. You live in a city whose citizens banded together toRead More tax themselves to save it Foothill wilderness, raised funds to renovate its schools and to build a state of the art library. The fact that one one single event in the year didn't go the way you wanted made you ashamed to be a Monrovian suggests you need to seriously rethink your priorities in life. As the first response said, quit complaining and get involved. Its not very hard in this city to find out how to volunteer if you had given it a slight effort. And the volunteer groups like the one that put the event together are starving for help since tearing people down is a lot more popular these days than putting in hard work. You are the one who should be ashamed.

I am gonna do my own thing, invite everyone to have a parade on Monrovia Day next year... RememberRead More the Doo Dah parade? Assemble old folks in black socks and hedge clippers!

Who was that face painter? She was really good with the kids, even the wiggly ones. She also wasRead More giving away little handmaid mermaids. Some of the stuff at the celebration was cool. I think next year the city council should be the dunkees for the dunk booth.

Thanks for the compliments. mor video to follow

Yeah, it's cute...... For now......
Ellen Zunino May 17, 2013 at 01:02 pm
Cool presentation. Many of us have had our own encounters and all of us have seen numerous photosRead More and videos so your creative approach freshened it up for us.

A California city will never prevail in a lawsuit against the STATE. All CA. cities must merge toRead More sue in mass under Federal RICO laws while we still have Federal laws. Filing alone at the State level is useless. Wake up people.

Ernie, the CBO (Chief Barking Officer) of Wonder Dog Ranch, dog day care and boarding, is woofingRead More with excitement about this happy ending.
