I just got done reading and watching a few stories on how our elected betters in Denver are attempting to “balance” the next year’s budget, and I’ll just have to admit I have no idea what the hell they are doing. Then again, it’s become apparent neither do the vast majority of “lawmakers.” Let’s just […]
And that’s whether you declare it as a news story or make it an agenda item for a city council meeting or whether that “agenda item” basically became a doxxing for “up to 20” people who are indeed at risk in their lives. For those of you on the left who believe themselves to be […]
It seems to me that every time we have a “budget crisis” with the federal government the one option never taken is the one that is always hovering above the fracas taking place with our “elected betters” in Congress. And it’s probably the only solution to our spending problems. It’s also the simplest. Just shut […]
Well, news broke recently that the City of Grand Junction was abandoning its plans to acquire the property next door to HomewardBound as the new location to move the homeless resource center. And at The Business Times, we’ve received a few accolades as being a catalyst for this occurrence. I guess that’s fine. I suppose […]
I honestly don’t know any other headline I could use as it relates to my feelings on the City of Grand Junction’s reaction to an Op-Ed that ran in the 2/26/25 edition of The Business Times. Before the sun set and the ink dried on that issue of The Business Times, I received an email […]

And while the bill is unconstitutional on its face, I thought I’d try to take some leftist arguments to show those […]
That’s right, every so often I get the silly idea it’s time to take a survey to find out who my reader is. And while it’s always a good idea to have a set of demographics on hand for our advertisers, it’s also a lot of fun (well, relative fun anyways) to read the responses […]
After all, it got JJ a job. And JJ’s first “interview” as Mesa County Commissioner proves it. For the life of me, I still can’t figure out why JJ Fletcher ran for Mesa County Commissioner. After all, when I asked JJ serious questions (with obvious follow-ups) that he was ill-prepared for in a Facebook thread, […]
We know we’ve been tooting our own horn for the past few months on this topic, but we can’t help it if our own anticipation has gotten the better of us. And for the staff, our readers and advertisers, the crescendo has finally reached its conclusion. As of the printing of this edition on Jan. […]
Yeah, I know it’s in the headline, but you can’t leave out what you’re leaving out unless you mention it, and then leave it out. Which I only will in the headline. As you may imagine if you’ve read me at least a couple of times, this will be the most difficult column I write […]
