THE FRIENDLY CITY
Excellent reflection on a tough subject that infects all of us who have
been around town awhile [Dave Wielenga's "You Gotta Have Friends," Dec.
16]. Thank goodness your response is to keep up the first-class
reporting rather than write puff pieces about the best (fill in the
blank) in Long Beach.

'THEY ARE PEOPLE FIRST'
Thank you for your beautiful article about MHA Village [Rachel Powers'
"Best Practices," Dec. 9]. I happened to be at the community meeting,
and you brought it back to life beautifully. I'm assuming that, by being
a person willing to look at the Village and paint it in such a bright
light, [...]

CHEMICAL LOVE
This is kind of a shock, because when I was in my late teens I, too,
used thermite [Theo Douglas' "Explodable Boy?" Dec. 2], and he's right:
it's not explosive. To the idiots who raided this poor kid's house:
putting thermite in a pipe does not make it a "pipe bomb." It'd probably
just [...]

THAT'S THE HOLIDAY DISPIRIT!
You rock! I have been looking for a wedding gift to get my über
right-wing conservative friend and hadn't been able to think of
anything. Problem solved after reading The District Weekly gift guide
[Nov. 25]. I just purchased the Help! Mom! books (Liberals Under My Bed
and your recommended Radicals are [...]

DINER'S CLUB
Great story and kudos to all who made this success happen [Theo Douglas'
"In the Kitchen with Diner," Nov. 18]. The biggest point of this story
is that sometimes you don't know what you have until it's gone. Long
Beach has more than its fair share of beautiful examples of mid-century
architecture that should [...]

CORDERO'S CONSCIENTIOUS VOTE TRIGGERS A CASE OF DE(LONG)JA VU
Harbor Commissioner Mike Walter's statements to fellow Commissioner
Mario Cordero [Dave Wielenga's "A Small Act of Heroism," Nov. 11] sound
so very much like the public whipping Long Beach Police Officer
Association (POA) President Steve James gave Councilmember Gary DeLong
when DeLong cast the lone "no" vote [...]

GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP
I am so glad that I am in Florida for my annual respite so I don't have
to explain to my readers why and how your twice-a-year sports story on
the Beach [Dave Wielenga's "On the Rebound," Nov. 4] is so much better
than those of us who cover that beat every day! Well [...]

WE'VE CREATED A MONSTER
Too funny ["Let's Be Frank: How to Build One Hell-Monster of a City,"
Oct. 28]. Gary DeLong: "I am still studying the matter, but I have come
to the conclusion that . . . we can do better." He probably thinks that
he is so slick with that nonsense. Those comments make [...]

A HITCHCOCKIAN MYSTERY
Is the failure to get a permit willful if you know in advance that what
amounts to corruption at city hall will give you a free pass after the
fact [Dave Wielenga's "Tough Love," Oct. 21]?

THE BEST OF YOUR LOVE
Hey, girlfriend! You've been keeping the chocolates a secret [Dave
Wielenga's "Diane Ripley: Consultant," Oct. 14]! Great photo, good
insight into the incredible woman that you are!
RAE GABELICH
Via thedistrictweekly.com
One drink ticket per band member [Miles Clements' "Paperplanes:
Everymen," Oct. 14]. I believe there is a bill working its way through
Congress [...]

I'm
a mother of 2 sons and 2 grandchildren. Therefore, I'm also concerned
about sex offenders living in my neighborhood. But at the same time we
also have to be reasonable. No one wants sex...
