Good morning, everyone. Now that Valentine’s Day is over, we can get back to being grim and cynical about the political world. Ah, that feels better already. And yet, it seems the “newspaper” just can’t shake its optimism in an editorial that praises leaders for being different and “plotting a familiar course.” “Newspaper,” you may need a Legal 2000.
Coming this weekend: More insight from 11 lobbyists I’ve recruited to assess what’s really happening – and will happen – in Carson City. The...
Good morning, everyone. Happy Valentine’s Day to all. Like many guys, I am annoyed by this “holiday,” and not just because I am known for spreading love EVERY DAY. This is one of those days where you just can’t say to a woman, "I didn’t do anything, but it’s the thought that counts.” Trust me, fellas: It doesn’t count for anything.

Good morning, everyone. Congratulations to Harvey Munford and his son for winning the Grammy last night. I don’t know where he finds the time around his legislative duties. Personally, I thought Levon Helm should have won it posthumously, but that tribute was nice.
For those of you who have not renewed and upgraded (it’s the same price for both!), you missed my column Sunday on taxes and the Gang of 63, but more importantly, you missed a fascinating collection of opinions on how the debate...

That and more Friday evening on "Ralston Reports" as fellow Democrats and Clark County Commissioners Steve Sisolak and Tom Collins went at it:
After he settled with the city of Henderson for a paltry sum, indicating the government was eager to release him, attorney Christopher Stephens, through his lawyers, lambasted what they called the "pulp fiction" of a lawsuit.
The statement, from the law firm of Campbell and Williams, is a brutal denunciation of Henderson's lawsuit against Stephens and others, including developer Chris Milam, who once promised to build a stadium near the "M" Resort.
Don't take my word for it. Read it and cringe...
