Commentary: Column space should go to the dogs
Undoubtedly, Mona Shadia is an excellent writer and great storyteller, but I feel it is wrong (almost immoral) to use the platform of a local newspaper for her religion/views, week after week after week after week. It must be about six months now you...Tags: Newspaper and Magazine, Cat (animal), Dog (animal)

Mailbag: Little bang for annual state beach pass
Re. "Cost of state beach parking increases," April 26: I honestly don't think the state knows what it is doing. Here is its pricing for the last few years: $75 in 1996; then, in the "good times" for the state, they dropped the price of the pass to $35 in...Tags: Central Park, Pet Shops, Services, and Supplies, Cat (animal), Dog (animal), Services and Shopping

In The Pipeline: The O'Reilly factor at Bolsa Chica

Mailbag: How about leashes for cats?
I have read recent columns and letters on dogs, and leashing them, with interest ("Keep your dogs safe — on a leash," In the Pipeline, Feb. 24; "Rude dog owners flout the law," Sounding Off, March 10). I agree with the goal of preventing people's...Tags: Mountains, Forestry and Timber, Heart Attack, Cat (animal), Emergency Health Procedures

Mailbag: Oil tanks out, but what goes in?
The planned demolition of the oil storage tanks on Magnolia Street is good news ("Company proposes removing oil tanks," Dec. 9). However, I hope that such action does not presage an application for the construction of an LNG complex at that location. I am...Tags: Craigslist, Inc., Cat (animal), Long Beach (Los Angeles, California), Animals, Human Interest

City Lights: My pet Torto lives on
There's a moment on "The Simpsons" when Mr. Burns, the tight-fisted owner of the Springfield power plant, gets a telemarketer's call promising a lifetime of happiness for $1. Removing a bill from his wallet, he muses, "One dollar for eternal happiness?"...Tags: Family, The Happiest News!
