A Couple of Comments on the Men’s Marathon at the Olympics

Ryan Hall should get a new coach. With all due respect to Ryan (after all who am I to advise someone like Ryan Hall?) but  self coaching doesn't seem to be working too well. It reminds me of the old saying about someone who represents themselves in court: namely he has a fool for a client.

Gilroy Interfaith Council

The goal of the faith blog is to bring our community together, unite around our commonalities, and share messages of faith. To forward this mission, members of Gilroy’s Interfaith Council met together to discuss the importance and purpose of their group. When asked what they hope to accomplish in the council, they went around the table answering that question.

Docents ready to hike Sierra Vista Open Space Preserve

Upper Penitencia Creek slashes a deep gorge in the Diablo Range near the northeast corner of San Jose. The lower portion of the gorge comprises Alum Rock Park with trails and picnic grounds close to the creek. Most of the lands you see rising high above Alum Rock Park are part of Sierra Vista Open Space Preserve, a 1,676-acre area that virtually encircles the cavernous Upper Penitencia Creek drainage.

City workers at Las Animas Park

I walk around Las Animas Park twice every day. On the morning of March 25, I noticed at the baseball field there were 11 city workers working most of the day where the adult softball league plays. I walked once again in the afternoon and the same amount of people were still there but were just standing around and watching one guy who was truly working. Is it necessary for 11 city workers to work practically all day on one field? I would like to know if our taxpayer money is going toward these 11 workers standing around all day supposedly working on the same baseball field. Does the softball league make that much revenue in order to reimburse for these city workers wasting a whole day fixing this field? I certainly hope it was not my taxpayer money being wasted. If it was my taxpayer money, I am sure the taxpayers of Gilroy would like to be informed how much this cost. I would appreciate you looking into this matter as soon as possible.
