Pigs in Space, Stewart vs. Stu on the Mall, and more!

Upon reading your article written two weeks ago about the unfortunate situation and outcome of the previously named Mt. Bachelor Academy, I couldn’t help but read it and feel an injustice was happening before my eyes. I now understand what went on and appreciated the article's informational content. However, I felt ashamed – like seeing that kid from math class getting picked on and not doing anything. It was easy for you to go that route and in but a few words you had delicately slain the dedicated life's work of many.

On Oct. 30 The Bulletin published a letter from Margaret Dement. This letter blamed American bedbug problems on “multiculturalism and mass immigration.” I have questions for Ms. Dement and The Bulletin:

We've all been hearing about tragedies on the south end of Bend's parkway. We don't want to have people needlessly killed and injured here, or have Bend be known for its highway death trap. Certainly, an over-the-road pedestrian bridge would save lives. Considering where our tax dollars get wasted, this would be a smart alternative. But, something needs to be done now. I'm not a politician or business executive, but I've been a landscaper here since the 1970s.
