3 Gallon Crock Ohio Stoneware $50

I’m selling a like-new 3 gallon preserving crock. It’s American-made by Ohio Stoneware and is finished with a lead-free and food-safe glaze.

I bought the 3 gallon crock last year to make kombucha. It worked wonderfully for continuous brewing and looked beautiful on my countertop. I’m only selling it because I’ve recently downsized in space (and crock size).

The crock is in great condition, with no chips or blemishes. It’s clean and ready to use, be it for sauerkraut, kimchi, kombucha, or something else.

I purchased it from a local store in Portland – heavy ceramic is great for preserving, not so great for shipping costs. I’m glad to be able to pass it on locally through the North Coast BBQ!

Fred Meyer Scam

Submitted By: bbq@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
Has anyone in bbq land received a telephone call from an alleged Fred Meyer person indicating you had one a store gift card that they wish to deliver to your door? If so let us know, as we’ve checked with Fredd Meyer mangers of both Tillamook and Warrenton stores and they have no knowledge of such a card or visitation protocol.
Thanks.

The Ol’ Bait and Switch

Submitted By: bluefishout@earthlink.net – Click to email about this post
Imagine the scene: You’re at the Fair. It’s the first big event you’ve been to in over a year. Maybe you’re holding the hand of someone you care about. Maybe you got the elephant ear that you’d been craving. You’re happy and doing something normal feels good. Then someone shouts out “Hey, do you want to sign a petition to protect the Second Amendment?”
It’s an obvious yes for a lot of people. Maybe even me. But then I would ask what were they doing with the petition. I’m always wary of the ol’ bait and switch.
Good people take things at face value and sometimes not-so-good people take advantage of that.
I can believe that folks signed the petition to get Measure 29-161 on the ballot based on a false promise that it protects the Second Amendment. It doesn’t and there is every chance that signers weren’t given the opportunity to read the full ordinance before signing.
If they had they would see that it had no power to affect the Second Amendment and that the real question should’ve been “Hey, do you want to sign a petition that limits local law enforcement on basically all firearm regulations?”
That question is not as obvious of a yes. They wanted the signatures so they didn’t ask that way.
I know this to be true because every signer that I have checked with has told me that it happened as described above.
With transparency Measure 29-161 would’ve never made it on the ballot.
It’s up to voters to right this wrong.
Vote NO! on the false promises of Measure 29-161.

KMUN Benefit featuring JOHN GORKA LIVE May 12

KMUN Benefit featuring JOHN GORKA

Thursday, May 12th at 7:00pm

Charlene Larsen Center for the Performing Arts (the PAC)

588 16th St (16 & Franklin) in Astoria OR

Tickets at www.PartnersForThePac.org or 503-338-9132

Mask and proof of vaccination are required.

Please join us for a very special performance at the Larsen Center – Astoria PAC with the marvelous JOHN GORKA May 12th. Come spend an evening with “the preeminent male singer-songwriter of the New Folk Movement” (Rolling Stone); known for his stunning and emotional baritone, dry wit, and introspective lyrics. The intimate setting assures a delightful, engaging and interactive evening!

Gorka’s last Astoria show sold out – so get your tickets today.

This concert is a fundraiser for our community radio station – KMUN.

The modern renaissance of folk music began when John Gorka won the Kerrville Folk Festival’s New Folk award in 1984, and it grew to maturity when he released his debut album “I Know” three years later.

Here was a singer-songwriter with a striking baritone voice that made you feel like you’d been hearing it all your life, with the songwriting chops to take on and see into nearly every type of song—from personal pieces about love and sadness, to bemused observations about daily life, political thinking-aloud, and sheer unmitigated whimsy.

Nearly four decades later, John still calls himself an aspiring folksinger, and his music has just kept getting deeper and better over his more than 15 critically acclaimed albums. John isn’t on the road as much as he used to be, so don’t miss this chance to catch a folk classic. You’ll leave the theater smiling.

I read a post here supporting Mary Faith Bell for County Commissioner. Much of the post was devoted to how unfit her opponent is. I think we should vote FOR someone and not against their opponent.
I know Mary Faith out of the pubic eye as we are neighbors. I know the kind of person she is on a daily basis. She is warm, intelligent, compassionate, empathetic, and trustworthy. No matter the demands of this office, those qualities will stand her in good stead.
I support Mary Faith Bell because of the person she is and the integrity she brings to this office.
