On behalf of the board of directors and the men and women of the Poulsbo Fire Department, I want to sincerely thank the citizens for their overwhelming support. Continuation of this EMS levy was an important part of our strategic planning process.

In memory
I’ve read and heard a lot of complaints about the infamous Silverdale intersection and how it doesn’t make any sense. Actually, in comparison to the one mile of State Route 305 between Viking Way and the bottleneck at the top of the hill at the Lincoln Hill intersection in Poulsbo, the Silverdale intersection is a stroke of genius.
Regarding Val Torrens’ latest biased diatribe titled, “Jimmy Carter’s discussions with Hamas are questionable,” (CK Reporter, May 14). It is high time to speak the truth about Israel’s motives and actions in the Middle East.

We just wanted to say thank you to the passing motorists who stopped and helped my son after a deer hit his car on Bond Road Sunday evening, before and after we arrived on the scene.
Coyotes in Kitsap
I’m writing because I’d like to think that my family is a lot like many families in the Kitsap area. We are concerned with the rising costs of food, health care, and especially gas. It’s a difficult time right now and can be a struggle.
It is apparent further clarification is needed to the letter by Pat and Gene DuVall printed in the Herald April 30. Their letter states, “One person alone does not speak for the diverse neighborhood of Eglon.” The DuValls refer to me as that one person. Having spoken to a large segment of Eglon residents, they expressed their opinions to me regarding the Greater Hansville Area designation for Eglon and plans for a sign being placed by the Hansville advisory group on the Eglon corner stating “Welcome to the Greater Hansville Area.” I, in turn, summarized their opinions and sent them to (Kitsap County) Commissioner (Steve) Bauer and to the Herald in my April 12 letter.
Knowing that the Central Kitsap High School yearbook staff finds itself in the position of having to accept a lower bid from a publisher that may not be able to meet its high standards, I offer this letter of support to advisor Sue Wachtman and co-editors Cody Brown and Tye Ford.
Like It Is
For most of us, life goes on from one day to the next without giving a second thought to all the risks around us. That heart attack, stroke, traffic accident or other life-threatening emergency always seems to happen to someone else. Sometimes those events happen close to home involving someone we know and that causes us to pause for a minute and think about those who were involved. One thing is for sure: When bad things happen in our lives, they happen fast with no time to prepare. Young and old, rich and poor, catastrophes can and do happen to everyone.

First we had Cheney and his hand-puppet Bush, now we have Bush and his hand-puppet McCain.
Kitsap newspapers have published many letters opposing Kitsap’s involvement in the Puget Sound Regional Council, and few supporting it. As a result, a lot of misinformation is going unanswered. Unfortunately, the role of PSRC is poorly understood.
