New Post blogger Johnny Boyd, a columnist at the Snowmass Sun, has a few things to say about the economy. "I want to state up front that in no way am I an economist," he blogs. "I don’t subscribe to Keynesian, Monetarist, or any other theory of economic policy. I am a simple children’s book author trying to support a household that is always in need of fiscal discipline and stringent monetary policy. In other words I need to go easy on the credit cards, pay my mortgage, and have enough left over to save. I do, however, watch the gyrations of our government as it attempts to stave off what many consider an impending recession. "

In the Roaring Fork Valley, Aspen has the title for the most socialistic municipality. If there’s a chance for the local Aspen poobahs to levy a tax or stick their nose in your business, then chances are that’s just what they’re going to do.
But not even the Aspen Politburo has the stones to do what the Town Council has done at Snowmass: to ban smoking outdoors in the Town of Snowmass Village.
Outdoors. That’s right. Light up in the great outdoors of Snowmass Village and you are toast–or at least subject to a fine as high as $1,000. Town Councilor Jack Wilkinson proposed the ban, according to a local paper, in part because of the impact of smoking on the health of his family.

One of the original meanings of “overwhelm” is to submerge completely and stems from around the year 1450. Picture a small boat washed over by a gigantic wave. Well, I feel like that boat right now, or rather a person in that boat flailing, whelmed by emotions, offset by a surge of curiosity from people itching to know more about stem cell therapy. A part of me thinks, I can’t possibly keep up with the influx of calls and emails, yet my intuitive knowing reassures me that I can handle the onslaught. I have received a God-given gift of life. I am the first United States Citizen to have received Human Embryon ic Stem Cell Treatment from Dr. Geeta Shroff in India, and I cannot turn my eyes, ears, or my awakened body to a culture crying out for a cure.

“Yes Dr. Ashish. Deal! I’ll move my right hamstring, I promise!” I made this statement with complete confidence…and in front of Dale, with both of our eyes focused on my lower right leg as I lay on my side isolating my upper body and hip flexors; I moved my right hamstring on command! My leg and foot moved backwards from the knee down. The movement was slight (an inch or two is all) but it was there. I then sat up with glee and said, “Let me try my toes.”

SNOWMASS, COLORADO–If you can feel for a corporation than I feel for Related WestPac. I really do. Because no matter what they do here–even if they do everything right–they have to live with what came before and the chaos of construction here that is still to come.
People around here hate developers. It’s that simple. No matter how many good things Related WestPac president Pat Smith does, there are those who live here who will still hate him merely because he’s a developer–and because of what he inherited. Pat Smith is the custodian of the soul of a town that has spent the better part of the recent past in development hell.
