Signs of the times
Dear Editor:
I have noticed of late that a number of bumper stickers are now missing on vehicles here in the valley that have previously displayed them. Mostly “Obama/Biden,” “Obama08,” etc. Please, those still displaying them, don’t strip or scrape them off, they will last for a number of years if properly cared for. A number of “Kerry/Edwards,” “Free Tibet” and others, as an example, are still around in the valley on a few ’89 Volvo station wagons and the like!
It is important that you take care of these “Obama/Biden,” “Obama08,” etc. bumper stickers; please park in the garage or in the shade when you can, clean off the mag chloride and every now and then use a little Armor All to help preserve them; it works great! If this is not done properly they may not be legible in two, three or four years and how will we ever be able to recognize and salute you for being an important instrument in helping Obama, Biden, Pelosi, Reid, Schumer, Murtha, Frank, Dodd and those in the Obama administration stuff this great country down the toilet! Thanks, and remember to check your tires and get a tune-up! Let me know if you need help … obviously you do!

Genstar’s Jean-Pierre Conte sued in Aspen by ex-girlfriend Hillary Thomas
The former girlfriend of Jean-Pierre Conte, the chairman and managing director of the private equity firm Genstar Capital, filed suit Thursday in Aspen claiming that Conte committed assault, battery, and violated the terms of a 2021 separation agreement. Hillary Thomas claims in her lawsuit that during her more than nine years with Conte, she helped parent his four children and her two children “whom they raised in a blended family.”
