Steamboat family kicked out of home by skunk colony

Isn't there a guy in town who specializes in shooting unwanted animals? I think I read about that somewhere...

Eugene Buchanan: Into the powder swing

First you bash your mom, then you encourage speed skiing, and now you brag about abandoning your family and job, pursuing snow like a drug addict. I'm glad I'm the first to pile on this week, Eugene.

Steamboat School Board unable to reach consensus on food service to CMC

...And Huppert has had that ability for years but somehow succeeded without falling to the temptations you cite. Could it be that his motivation was not a personal profit motive but *merely* the desire to do a good job? Why should he take your advice and "form his own private business"? Seems like he is doing fine right where he is with none of the hassles of being a business owner. We are lucky to have him. Maybe Rex will hire him away.

CMC is free to outsource food service to a private company, but apparently is choosing its best option.

Huppert is already doing 800-1,000 meals a day for a student body of >2,300, and doing it very well. Only Ski Corp. slings more hash than that. Think they could compete?

I don't think adding another 226 students (10%) is going to drastically change anything.

CMC is a public, not private institution.

...what private enterprise? Isn't this a bizarre case of the government (SSSD) competing with the government (CMC)?

It looks like Huppert, a government employee, is running a tight ship that provides an excellent product at a reasonable cost. This socialism has gotta be stopped.

Steamboat School Board to discuss providing food service to CMC

Public entity outsources food service to another public entity. Is this known as "publicizing"?

Steamboat City Council delays action on ambulance privatization

Yeah, those Omaha Beach, Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, and WTC government employees were a real embarrassment. If there had only been some corporate profit on the line they could really have accomplished something!

Steamboat City Council delays action on ambulance privatization

We're not gonna check for vital signs until we've checked for cash or credit cards! This is America, pay or die!

Steamboat City Council delays action on ambulance privatization

They could probably get closer to 100% recoup if they adopted a "pay or die" policy.

Eugene Buchanan: Mom for the holidays

Eugene: many of your critics whine about everything in these blogs. All they do is whine. It is ironic that these professionals are now whining because they thought you were being too whiney.
