CLARK COUNTY COMMISSIONER GIUNCHIGLIANI ASKS QUESTIONS.
   Clark County Commissioner Chris G., as she is known, won over Myrna Williams in the last election and according to the paper is asking way too many questions of the staff and commissioners to satisfy them. Well how do you like them apples? I say fine after having “Myrna nothing” for my commissioner. All her time on the commission, she never once answered your call or even retuned it so what good was she? Little to no good – and I congratulate Chris G. for upsetting the apple cart a little bit in the Government Center. One of these days I am going to talk to her and see how much good she will be for our district. For instance; we got our streets recoated several years back and the surfacing was hardly dry before it cracked all over the street again right where it was cracked before they fixed it. And dear Myrna did nothing about it, as usual. Airport noise – how many times did I called her on that and her answer was they outrank me on the commission and I can’t get anything done. Well Chris G., please keep asking the questions and really work for a better Clark County.

UNIVERSITY CHANCELLOR ROGERS WANTS TO TAX HIMSELF MORE.
   Jim Rogers thinks we aren’t taxed enough so we should have an income tax because we are one of the few states that does not have an income tax. Well now isn’t that why all those people sold their homes in California and moved to Nevada – because we do not have an income tax so that one can keep some of what one saves if the federal government has not taken it all. Jim must have had a slight memory loss when he made that statement.
This billionaire talks a lot doesn’t he? I also seem to remember he was going to get his very wealthy billionaire friends to kick in millions for higher education and so far he has had no luck. It seems they must not have save their billion yet so aren’t able to help him add to the university coffers. That’s OK Jim if we had your money or even half of it we would be more than happy to kick in a few million. Forget the income tax and spend your time working on your moneyed friends we can use some of their wealth.

UNIVERSITY REGENT WANTS THE PROFESSORS TO CARRY GUNS.
   Can’t you just see some professor wearing his six-shooter on his hip and if the students don’t pay attention he shoots a few shots into the ceiling to get their attention. Seriously how many professors’ janitors or what ever do you know who should carry a gun at one of our schools of higher education? I think that would cause more of problem than what it would solve. We have gone a couple hundred years without such a shooting as in West Virginia so I hope we don’t get carried away with arming everyone to the hilt. If you were not brought up with guns it is pretty late in life to begin to carry one now. I don’t want to see every new place a gun is used to be an excuse to arm a few hundred more people. I believe in our right to carry a gun but also think we need a family learning period of being around guns before we get too anxious to arm a lot of people who never had reason to carry a gun or in lieu of that an intense training in the handling of a gun.

THE LEGISLATURE IS SO QUIET. WHAT’S GOING ON?
   In all the years yours truly has tracked the Nevada legislature this has to be the quietest one of them all. What is going on? I worry that the last hour of the last night before they adjourn will cost us unsuspecting taxpayers. Please don’t decide that you can do something for us that we can’t do for ourselves a little better. We know there is talk about some plan where district judges and Supreme Court justices would be appointed before we could vote on them some time later. Please, we like the system we have. Let them run for office and let we the taxpayers vote them in or out of office. We did OK in the last election. It really isn’t broken so please leave it alone. We thank you.
