SUMMARY
Part one of Neil Simon’s autobiographical trilogy: a portrait of the writer as a young teen in 1937 living with his family in a crowded, lower middle-class Brooklyn walk-up. Eugene Jerome, standing in for the author, is the narrator and central character. Dreaming of baseball and girls, Eugene must cope with the mundane existence of his family life in Brooklyn: formidable mother, overworked father, and his worldly older brother Stanley. Throw into the mix his widowed Aunt Blanche, her two young (but rapidly aging) daughters and you have a recipe for hilarity, served up Simon-style. This bittersweet memoir evocatively captures the life of a struggling Jewish household where, as his father states “if you didn’t have a problem, you wouldn’t be living here.”

He is survived by his sons Scott and Todd Liebler, and Leon Vining, and his 5 grandchildren, Eliza, Isaac, Augustus, Thaddeus, and Jane.
He was fondly known as R.B. by his poker buddies and, in his memory, Robert would like everyone to buy into a game of Texas Hold ‘Em.


The year is 1962 and C.S. Lewis, the famous British author, is in the twilight years of his life. He is hosting a group of American writers at his home just outside of Oxford. They have come to hear him speak about the significant events and the people that shaped his life.
As it is Christmas time, Lewis also reflects on how he views this festive season. As one would expect from a gifted speaker the audience are treated to a display of oratory and humor that made Lewis one of England’s most famous public speakers.
This powerful, yet intimate portrayal allows you to spend an enthralling evening with a man whose books have literally changed millions of lives.
You will laugh, you will rejoice, you may even cry and you will certainly leave celebrating a great author who gave the world the Narnia Chronicles and a Christian legacy that few others can match.

We are a small business that would be affected by this tax and I have questions and concerns. I found out about it from a letter to the editor in the Headlight-Herald but there doesn’t seem to be any local news coverage about it, even though there was a County public meeting about it on Nov 30?
I tried searching Google but all official documentation in search results about the proposed ordinance have been removed or password-protected on the County and “Economic Development Council” (EDC) websites.
The commissioners haven’t responded to my emails yet but the EDC responded that Commissioner Bell is forming a working group and the EDC is holding a public meeting on Dec 19 that I’m not sure I can attend: www.edctc.com/edc-minutes
The only info I can find is from meeting minutes on the EDC’s website, and these make this new fee appear to be kind of a big deal:
Fee amounts were supposed to “mirror” from the City of Tillamook’s business license fee, $75 – $300 per business per year.
According to EDC meeting minutes from August 2022, the purpose of the new tax is:
1. We have no idea who is operating as a business.
2. In case of an emergency, we do not have a comprehensive list of who needs to be notified.
3. This is a way of bringing in revenue for the EDC.
Please reach out if you have any information.
Here are the letters from the Headlight-Herald:

FREE—This concert is Deb’s gift to the community, so if you have a heart to give then pass it on to others in need!
Join singer-songwriter Deb Montgomery for a quiet, early evening of music and candles: a kind-of-sort-of Advent Concert. Think house concert in a church. St. Catherine’s Episcopal Church is sweet and warm, open, inclusive, and welcoming.
“Montgomery’s music has been compared to many other talented musicians, from Natalie Merchant to Neil
Young. These are great comparisons, and Montgomery is an excellent storyteller. Her music is glorious in
its ability to make you cry, to make you feel, to make you find hope again.” — Beat Media
Deb has performed for many years—with and without a band—in Seattle, Toronto, Chicago, and New
York City. She recently relocated to Manzanita. You can find her music on iTunes and Spotify, or listen
to her albums here: debmontgomery.com and debmontgomery1.bandcamp.com/album/the-heart-of-it.
