Subject: shout out to Jane Dunlap Computing Services

Would like to give a shout out to Jane Dunlap Computing Services.
Jane made a house call recently to set me up with wireless printing
on a pesky printer with my Mac and to alleviate some other minor
problems.  I just printed out something after her good, persistent
services–it was a joy to do so, wirelessly!  It was also a joy to
work with Jane and I recommend her highly to any of you who need any
kind of computer services.  Susan Ketchin, “Computer-challenged”

Subject: Goathouse Refuge Needs Volunteers

The Goathouse Refuge, a non-profit organization dedicated to caring for more
than 100 cats, is in need of volunteers.  We are located right outside of
Pittsboro off of Highway 87.  We have two shifts of volunteers per day – one
in the morning and another shift in the late afternoon/evening. Shifts
typically include feeding, cleaning and interacting with the cats.  Even if
you can only spend a few hours a week it would make a difference.  Please
visit our website at www.goathouserefuge.org and click on the volunteer
tab.  After you fill out a volunteer application someone will contact you.
If you do not have internet access please call us at 542-6815.

Subject: Re: Chatham Chatlist #3665

We need real change in Chatham, to get there we need to work together.

Our county has approximately 50% registered Democrats, 25% registered Independents, and 25% registered Republicans.  We cannot win against the incumbent county commissioners unless we unite Independents, Republicans, and conservative Democrats.

Chatham County has traditionally been run by Democrats, who, until recently have been fairly conservative.  The saying goes vote for Democrats locally, and Republicans nationally.  But times have changed, our local elected officials are anything but conservative, they are cut from the same cloth as the crew currently running the country and the state, this must change or we are in deep trouble.

Subject: Chatham Tax Survey

Steve Candelori deconstructs an earlier post with a series of pretty cynical barbs toward that earlier writer. I won’t attempt to respond to Candelori’s comments in any detail, but I think there are some general comments worth making about the tax survey.

Here is the last question cut-and-pasted from this Chatham Tax Survey. I’ve inserted letters to separate its various parts, and grant that I may have overlooked one or more. (Those of you who notice should ignore any grammatical mistakes in the question.)

Subject: Seagulls at Jordan Lake?

I don’t recall seeing so many seagulls in years past on Jordan Lake.  Is this a normal occurrence or only happens every few years?  Just curious…

Subject: Chatham home delivered meals – reply to Sherry

Sherry-

The Chatham County Council on Aging operates a home delivered meal program
for adults aged 60 and older, Monday through Friday. We prepare the meals
fresh daily at the senior center in Siler City and volunteers take them to
homes in every part of the County. Not surprisingly with the significant
increase in the older adult population, we are in need of additional
volunteers. Routes take approximately an hour. Volunteers are trained to
keep the food at the appropriate temperatures during the route. Volunteers
also provide a friendly visit to our clients and let us know if the clients
have any unmet needs. Our mission is to assist older adults in living
independently, in their own homes, and good nutrition is a critical aspect.
