Do people who don’t take enough time in the morning to get ready and so they end up speeding off to work really disturb and irritate you? If so, you’re not alone.

“At the Eighth Street and Gilroy intersection is the City of Gilroy yard. While I empathize that these guys have to be in to punch a clock obviously at 7 o’clock in the morning, there is no need to speed down this street. There are a lot of little kids that live here. It is still a residential area and there is no crosswalk.

And P.S., workers for the city of Gilroy, there is a stop at the end of Eighth Street before you make that left into the city yard. If residents and citizens have to stop, so do city employees and police officers. Thank you for slowing down. There will be kids going to school here shortly who are out to catch the bus that early.”

Slow down and stop, people. Not only is it irksome, it’s dangerous too.

These two were reunited, but some people want to know … what will happen to those dog-gone posters?

“I am very happy to hear Tracy O’Brien was reunited with her dog after 18 long days of the two of them being apart. Now I have a question. Will Tracy be coming back to Gilroy before the tape disintegrates and the paper becomes part of Gilroy’s litter problem?”

The Red Phone contacted city officials and found out that any sign, poster, notice, announcement or similar posting on public property is prohibited, as per the city’s zoning ordinance. And this includes missing pet signs. Residents are not supposed to attach such signs to fences, telephone poles, trees or other structures. Unfortunately, City Clerk Rhonda Pellin said the city cannot provide regular enforcement for such items, due to budget constraints.

For another happy reunion, dog not included, read on:

“My little girl is almost four and she’s severely speech and language delayed. We were on a camping trip this weekend at Mt. Madonna and she got lost. She actually walked away from us. A typical I thought she was with daddy, daddy thought she was with me, and she walked away from us. She was about half a mile down a trail before my husband finally found her.

The response we got from the rangers and Santa Clara Co. Forset Dept. was so prompt and they were just wonderful. I wanted to complement them and congratulate them on their swift response. They got it out over the air. It’s a remote area, we were out at the Henry Miller site and they had people out there right away. There was Ranger Zapata and Deputy Sheriff Crowley and there was another lady ranger and a real young guy, another ranger. They were all out, really concerned looking for this little girl. And I wanted to complement them and tell them how very grateful we are at the amount of concern they showed and helped us to find our little girl. She’s severely speech and language delayed and if someone else were to come across her, she couldn’t even tell them her name.

I just wanted to say thank you for the swift response and how wonderful they were to my family. Thank you so much.”

Just goes to show that there still are some happy endings out there.
