Ron Largent: Granzella’s is open and ready

Posted on August 4, 2008 by Ron Largent

For those of us who had eaten at Granzella’s Restaurant and Deli in Williams, the news last October that the restaurant had burned to the ground in an afternoon electrical fire was hard to believe. We were absolutely shocked, stunned… Continue Reading →

Library is no place for vagrants

Posted on July 16, 2008 by Ron Largent

Recently I visited the new Redding Library about 3 p.m. As I approached the library (which, by the way, is a great place), I noticed a whole bunch of folks sitting around outside the front entrance. Many were just there,… Continue Reading →

So what’s involved in fighting fires?

Posted on July 6, 2008 by Ron Largent

Last Thursday morning I was going to a business meeting next door to the Shasta Fairgrounds in Anderson. I came across more firetrucks and fire vehicles than I had ever seen in one place, and it dawned on me, “This… Continue Reading →

What’s Going On . . . with Trader Joe’s? . . . and some other thoughts

Posted on June 29, 2008 by Ron Largent

A number of folks have been asking, “When is Trader Joe’s coming to Redding?” Good question. I drove by Hilltop and Browning and saw walls going up, but still had some questions. The most accurate answer I got was from… Continue Reading →

  • Comment on Convicted murderer Robert Milton sentenced to 50 years-to-life in prison by Mahmoud Darwish
    In reply to Steve Towers. It's irrationally hoplophobic, to say nothing of unconstitutional. A firearm is an inanimate object, no different from a baseball bat, ax, cleaning chemicals, etc. What difference does it make which object the murderer intentionally misused?

    In reply to Steve Towers. Your final sentence describes a certain orange oval office occupant, too. I watched in amazement his self aggrandizing speech to the UN assembly. I'm actually a bit surprised so few walked out. Fever dream: CDA is well enough to go back to work and would accept the position of assistant […]
