On Mother's Day when I was younger and washing dishes or cleaning her car, I used to ask my mother when children's day was. She chided me for my insolence and replied that 'every day is children's day.' Whatev! What mom doesn't like slithery snakes and itchy natural grasses? Moms get in for half price at CALM. There's other events to choose from here. Or you could write a tribute to your mom (and include a photo) which would live forever in cyberspace. Our Your Words feature has a special section for all mothers. Find it here. And in conclusion, check out Time Magazine's best and worst moms ever list, including Mrs. Robinson (one of the worst) and Dumbo's mom (one of the best). Someone's looking for a conservative Catholic church in Bakersfield. Can you help them? Meanwhile, personal excellence (for women only) is just a phone call away. And finally, a man needs help with his old Harley. The LA Times is reporting that the Tejon Ranch Company has struck a deal with national environmental groups to go ahead with its plans for development without fear of lawsuits. As part of the deal, the company will set aside chunks of land to create a state park, add to the Pacific Crest Trail, and continue providing habitat for the California Condor. Tejon Ranch spreads from the base of the Grapevine in Kern County southward into Los Angeles County. Some call it the most important piece of pristine land left in California. What do you think about the deal? Do you look forward to a Tejon Ranch State Park someday? Do you dream of living in one of the communities that will be developed? Are you worried about the approximately half of the 38 California Condors living in the wild, which make their home on Tejon Ranch property? Here's a link to the full story: http://www.latimes.com/news... A mere 28 years after the sighting, a woman recalls her face-to-face encounter with a hairy half-man, half-beast in the forest of Tehachapi. "When I looked a round, still on my horse. That's when I saw Bigfoot. He was really tall, black and so human like. He looked at me, but was not scared. I said to myself that's bigfoot. Bigfoot had one hand and arm leaning against a giant tree, and he looked to be both man and ape. Bigfoot looked right at me, and we both just looked at each other. I was so scared I turned around and went back to the ranch." (If it was still traipsing around Tehachapi now, the residents would probably tell it that it wasn't welcome to play in the winter snow) A local blogger raves about our new product, Raising Bakersfield. OK, so she used to work here. We're a small town OK?! And here's the Raising Bakersfield site. Bill Perryman has accepted a job in Bakersfield at a large insurance firm. He's excited to move his wife and kids to California after years on the East Coast. He decides to log on to bakersfield.com this morning to get a snapshot of his new home. The following are excerpts from the 9 headlines on our Latest News section: ... breaking point ... child beating ... ... edgy ads ... ... sex with minors ... man found dead ... ... baby dies ... ... blasts Rosedale development Of course, Mr. Perryman is a figment of our imagination, but my goodness, what would a newcomer think?
Kicking things off Tuesday morning, former soccer great Eric Wynalda laces 'em up (his cleats) for the Bakersfield Brigade. There is no Radio Free Bakersfield this morning. What happened to this marvelous podcast? We're left with Eric Wynalda/Brigade stories. Something is just not right. The Maricopa police officer arrested on suspicion of having sex with minors is featured in the Din of Sin blog. And a less-than-complimentary theater review of BC's "Two Sisters and a Piano." Like we said, bring back Radio Free Bakersfield. To many people who care about animals, little people wrestling with calves at the Bakersfield Sports Arena isn't much different than bigger people riding horses to death at the Kentucky Derby. But that's beside the point. This bizarre photo was taken by Californian intern, Coco Walters. Here's bakosphere's caption to get you started: "How embarrassing" (attributed to man or beast) Not everything went smoothly at this weekend's Relay for Life event, but one local blogger had no sympathy. Please help this man out. He can't find anything to do in Kernville. |
