I am not speaking about the Insurance Companies when it comes to my coverage and the cost of my coverage. What I am emphasizing is that state governments want to mandate automobile insurance coverage which only makes sense.

A hearty thanks to Chuck Perry, one of Charter Communications’ top flight technicians. Problems were detected with our Charter service (I have the total package, internet, TV and phone). On his service call he checked all of our connections and replaced a few wires that did not provide adequate shielding, as per the [...]

It seems locally that the gadflies, as usual, are out and about. You will probably never see them but they are there, trust me. They are spewing their messages of hate and ignorance, up and down the greater Wenatchee Valley. I am not sure how often I am a target but I [...]

Today I called the WA State Insurance Commissioner’s Office. The receptionist answering the phone was very cordial and actually quite helpful. [...]

Considering that my final property valuation increased a bit less than 33% that was acceptable. My local share of school taxes actually went down about 5%. That [...]

……….I make the claim and rightfully so that I am North Central Washington’s most consistently conservative voice.
