		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday my grandson spent the day at my house. Like many 7 year old boys, Alex has a fascination with trains. Over the past 5 years we have indulged him with many Thomas the Tank Engine toy trains. Unfortunately, due to the efforts of the Peoples Republic of China to poison our children, yesterday was not [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The 2007 election is over and the results are pretty much a done deal. I was glad to see that the Hospitality Tax increase went down in flames. The sour grapes crowd is already complaining about future problems funding parks and recreation. With the better part of two years left to put an acceptable proposal [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As Yuma&#8217;s next election day nears, we continue to hear about the proposed 25% increase in the hospitality tax. As is usual there has been quite a bit of misinformation generated by those with a vested interest in passing the proposition. It has been said that this tax is aimed at out of towners who are using [...]]]></description>

I am not sure that by themselves any are worthy of a blog entry so I thought I would just lump them all together. Stupid Stuff entry one. Victims of the recent storm in Yuma found themselves again victimized by city building inspectors. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I really enjoy the lower Colorado River&#8217;s recreational opportunities. Recently on one hot Saturday, my grandson Alex and I decided we had an extra 90 minutes and wanted to go play in the river. While Gateway Park is fun place to spend some time, we were looking for something a bit more adventuresome.  So we [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have seen a lot of comments recently bemoaning the lack of community involvement in local politics. In fact, it seems that only a few regularly participate in or comment on local affairs. I sometimes wonder if this serves as tacit approval for the status quo. Another thought is that the local citizenry feel that [...]]]></description>

Then came the search for red Thomas the Tank Engine toys made in China that had lead paint. Now we hear that many Mattel products manufactured [...]]]></description>
