Following an extraordinary and problematic year-and-a-half for Camden County policing, Sheriff Jim Proctor is now facing his first competition to re-election in a decade. His challengers — former Camden County Sheriff’s Office Maj. Kevin Chaney and County Commissioner Trevor Readdick — are running as Republicans and will square off in the May 21 state primary. In November, the winner will face Proctor, who is running as an Independent.

I say fabulous because of the architecture. The A.D. Brown Building is at 1136 Washington Avenue in St. Louis, Missouri. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places back on March 28, 1980.

Do you wonder what that nasty smell that has been cropping up all over Denver is?. I know. Denver has lots of nasty smells, including urine and feces in the alleys. There also is the unmistakable chemical smell of meth that turns some people’s stomachs. And of course, marijuana lingers in the air Denver-wide.

With all the crazy news we hear these days, it is understandable that people might feel helpless to make a difference. It's true that you might not be able to cure the ills of the world, but you can, quite easily in fact, make a huge, positive difference in the life of a cat. Best of all--you reap the rewards too.

The best way to downsize is to declutter and organize first. Do not bring your clutter with you. It seems counterproductive when people bring all their stuff to their new place with the idea of sorting through it all after they get settled in their new home which is probably a smaller home since you are downsizing.

It’s a fair question: Have people experiencing homelessness moved to Denver for a free hotel room?. At least one man did. The mother of a missing man messaged me the other day to tell me she is looking for her son. She said he moved back to Denver from Florida thinking he could get a free hotel room as part of Denver Mayor Mike Johnston’s House1000 plan. Of course, those rooms all are full now. Also, most people who received the rooms were in established encampments that the mayor swept. There never were any rooms for people who might move to Denver one week to be housed the next.

If you're from the Ozarks region of Missouri, you might have heard people talk about the old type of medicinal cure known as the madstone. It's hard to tell if it's true or false without personal experience, or at least whether someone in a family's long history line was treated with one of these stones.
