their behavior for a while I decided to call them
“press rats.”
It was like mass confusion as their little legs,
tails erect, propelled them to and fro as though
looking for an opportunity to generate the latest
fake news. Every once in a while a group of them,
as though alerted to a breaking story, would scurry
back into there “deep state” holes praying that
an impeach-worthy “anonymous” tip was finally
found. In general it became obvious these press
rats loved to dig up worthless dirt everywhere they
could find it. One crazed press rat in particular, I
named it Rachel, would dive in and out of its hole
constantly, seemingly desperate to find that nugget
of hope for credibility and fame. I later did some
research on the press rats and found them to be
true liberal rats as well; so against right to life they
will even eat their own young. Who would have
thought watching these “despicable” little animals
would be such an interesting analogy to everyday
events?

some did, thinking there might be a hearing
problem on my part. No, I hear fine. I read so
many outraged neighbors in The Nugget regard-
ing the noise disrupting their tranquility. I have
to wonder, did they know there was an airport
nearby when they bought or rented? And the
noise an airport makes. What if it was a train sta-
tion, and more trains came through due to a new
business? Where does it end? Where will you
take it?
Our house, like many, is in a flight path of our
gem of an airport. Again, noise pollution? NO. I do
hear the traffic on Highway 20 though. Now maybe
I can rile up some neighbors and we can put a stop
to that.
People of the universe, we are not alone. We
live, work and hopefully thrive with each other.
Consider the ripple effect. I felt ashamed and sad-
dened by this loss. This behavior is not something
to be proud of.

To the Editor:
Wow. Congrats people of Sisters Country. My
hat’s off to you if I ever wear one.
I just found out that our young, brave entrepre-
neurial folks with the skydiving business at Eagle
Air pulled stakes and are now operating in Madras.
I was surprised to find this out, but upon reflecting,
who could blame them? We certainly did an awful
lot of that while they were here. Doing business,
bringing in business to Sisters. But alas, the “not-
in-my-backyard” folks ran them off.
I work next to the airport. I live four miles
outside of our sweet, beautiful town of Sisters.
I never experienced the “noise pollution” that
