Regarding Bob Hamre’s March 22nd polemic on the guest editorial of March 21 by the publisher of the St. Marie’s (Idaho) Gazette Record, I must comment.

Propaganda masquerading as a news story

Published on Wed, 03/30/2016 - 5:16pm

Editor:

The piece included in Monday’s “news”paper about the wolf-elk kill was not news. It was the same old portrait of the big bad wolf taking all the resources humans value just for sport: the killing and leaving behind of 19 elk carcasses at a “feeding station” aka alfalfa salad bar supplied by Wyoming Game and Fish Department.

There are multiple horrors in this story:

Stunning performances of ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’

Kudos to Russell Lewis, artistic director for the Dulcie Theater production of “Jesus Christ Superstar.” The cast, orchestra, production/design/technical staff and all the volunteers brought Broadway to Livingston. The amazing talents of every performer were stunning. The scenic designs accommodating the many actors were brilliant. The voices and staging by local talent was so professional. I am gushing, but this presentation was one of the best performances anywhere.

Is it too much to ask?

I walk the sidewalks of Livingston almost every day, and have been quite happy with the fact they are clean and clear of dog doo. But, recently, I feel like I am navigating an obstacle course and losing. I have grown weary of the dog owners that disrespect me and the other good citizens of Livingston. Please pick up after your dog. Is that too much to ask?

Let’s not be silly

If we are going to support public art or any variety of public “silliness” in this town, let’s be original. Why rehash sketches from 1970s British television when we have so much creative talent right here in Park County? We are a first-rate town, not a second-hand joke.

The “silly crosswalk” is a fun idea, but it’s not ours. And let’s leave the webcams out of the public space. Forever. Let’s not be silly.

Support Buffalo Field Campaign’s alternative

Published on Tue, 03/22/2016 - 2:26pm

America’s last wild, migratory buffalo (or bison), the beloved Yellowstone herds, have been under siege for decades by Montana’s livestock interests and the government agencies that support them. Under the highly controversial Interagency Bison Management Plan, thousands of wild buffalo have been destroyed and abused in America’s public parks and forests while taxpayers have borne its multimillion dollar costs.

Elk welcome any time

First of all, I would like to thank Brad Shultz for his letter to the editor in last Thursday’s edition of The Livingston Enterprise. It is like a breath of fresh spring air to have a Paradise Valley resident speak out in support of the elk. I agree, this is a critical time for the elk, for they are heavy with calves, just getting out of the winter, and numbers are at a dangerous all-time low.
