In a Time of Economic Downturn, I Gaze Up at The Sky
by Michael Blumenthal

The sun came up this morning, just
as I knew it would. My morning coffee
tasted exactly like yesterday's: a tad bitter,
but nonetheless revivifying. The faces
of our dead Presidents on Mount Rushmore,
are still there, speaking of their trials
and tribulations from their scenic outlook
of granite. Tonight, when I get home from work,
my lover will make her way downstairs,
wearing my favorite underwear. We'll lie
in bed, pretending to watch a movie, both
knowing what we really want. The Dow,
no doubt, will continue its slide, just as the moon,
that lozenge of indifference, will continue
its path downward among the clouds. All of us—
sun, moon, coffee, clouds— might feel a twinge
of guilt: such indifference to profit and loss!
Yet, all over the world, tiny birds with broken wings
and injuries of all sorts are making their way
back to their nests, even the waterlogged anhinga
is drying its wings in the sun. It's good to know
so much keeps going on, despite everything.
Come closer, sweetheart, let's put the film on pause,
let's profit from whatever we've got— before
the closing bell, before the riffraff of recovery
finds us and brings us down again.

Too bad I'm not certified yet or I'd be all over that job in Alaska and get in some skiing at the same time. Maybe next year.

This is in response to the 2010 Census. The Census will be mailed to PO Boxes. Please take the time to fill out the information and return it. Those who don't will be visited by a census worker in April or May. They will have proper identification to show you. Do not give information to anyone who is unable to show you their ID! The information provided for each household will determine the amount of federal funds available to Jamestown. Our 2000 Census indicated that we had a population of 205 when it should've been 287. So please participate in the 2010 Census to help out our community. Thank you in advance!

A Memorial Service will be held on Thurday, February 11, 2010 at 2:00 PM at Howe's Mortuary, 439 Coffman St, Longmont, CO. Please come and celebrate the life of our dear Susie. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to your favorite charity in Susie's name. The following is a link to Howe Mortuary site for Susie's Obituary.

Hi,

My car has to stay at the garage over night. Is there anybody who can give me a ride up to the Bar-K at the end of the day? Any time after 4pm would be good. I'm at 30th and Arapahoe.

Thanks!

Our condolences to Susie's family. Rest in Peace, Susie.

We burned on Monday the 8th on the unit that is about 1 mile west of Gold Hill and south of CR 52. That unit is complete and we will check in the subsequent days to make sure the piles are out. We also burned a unit farther south near Switzerland Trail (Gordon Gulch area).
We will be burning again tomorrow north of CR52 and west of Gold Hill finishing up the RFB 9 unit as well as potentially burning north of the Overland Road in JC 1401. So we are back in Jamestown area burning with the new snow. Thanks for the heads up on the road conditions in the canyon.
Thanks

This year there will be: 47 films, 31 filmmakers, and 18 countries represented in 4 days of spice, color, laughter, outrage, adventure, ideas, culture and community.

Hi George, About that car... can you give us a call please? I don't know your number. Thanks! 303.442.2five22

We burned today north of Overland Rd. within unit 1401. The piles have been secured but flames are still visible. Personnel will be on scene for another couple hours from now monitoring the piles. They will be checked again tomorrow. You will be able to see burning piles from the road as you drive up or down Overland Rd. Piles were burned along the road so will be quite visible. The orange area on the picture of the unit above is the location of where we burned today.

We also burned on the RFB 9 unit which is west of Gold Hill and north of CR 52. That unit was completed today and we will be checking those piles tomorrow.
