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 […]
After all, it’s the Democrat way. As this paper is being finalized and published, Colorado’s Senate Bill 003 may have already cleared the house and is sitting on Pontius Polis’ desk for his signature. 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. […]

And I’ve got the perfect one for our fair city from Thomas Sowell, and it goes like this: “Some people seem to think that the answer to all of life’s imperfections is to create a government agency to correct them.” And in Grand Junction we don’t just create a government agency, we elect them to […]
Just so you aren’t confused, I am not talking about any meetings on the corner of 12th and North. No, I’m talking about downtown on Fifth and Rood. And while I am sure the faculty meet regularly at our university, those meetings don’t do nearly the damage the way our city council infects its personal […]
Let’s just be honest, if President Trump wins, the Democrats will be apoplectic, and we’ll probably have a repeat of the 2016 election aftermath, but to a greater degree. After all, how else can people react to the election of Satan’s top minion and all the Democrats are claiming he’ll do once in office. Demonstrations […]
Yes and no. But I will say, my new role of being an editor takes up a lot of my time. No, I didn’t say it wastes my time. That’s mainly because what I edit is interesting to me. Yes, your stories interest me, and I want to tell them in the best way possible […]
