Store with name that confuses me, sold nothing but little wooden signs with bumper sticker jokes. Quitting after 1 year.
Hardly knew ya. Or knew what you existed for.

“Burn artificial logs” Pacific Grove resident Rena Henderson writes:
I used to enjoy a nice, crackling fire as much as the next person. But I’ll never burn wood again. I now know how intrusive and destructive wood fires are to our neighbors. If causing your neighbor’s home to smell like an ashtray is not enough to convince you, then consider a few facts.
The particulate matter in wood smoke is so small that windows and doors cannot keep it out — even in energy-efficient, weather-tight homes. A study by the University of Washington showed that 50 to 70 percent of the outdoor levels of wood smoke entered neighboring homes. An EPA study found similar results.
Wood smoke contains carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, sulfur dioxide and various irritant gases that can scar the lungs. It also contains chemicals known or suspected to be carcinogens.
Well those ‘artificial logs’ contain paraffin wax. How about listing a few toxins found in paraffin wax, including toluene, benzene, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), and naphthalene–substances found in paint, lacquer and varnish removers to fill the air?
Citizen & Police Crack Kayak Rustle Ring
Give a hero award to the victim turned PI.
At approximately 11:35 a.m., a Pacific Grove resident saw a small pick-up driving away from the back of his property with his ocean going kayak in the bed, police said.
He followed the truck and obtained a license number as it drove into Pebble Beach, police said, and reported the information to the police.
The driver, identified as Patrick Minerva, 19, of Carmel, was arrested by Pacific Grove police with Amy Gonzalez, 19, of Pebble Beach, and a 17-year-old juvenile female, police said, and the kayak was recovered.
It also was discovered two more people were involved and another kayak had been taken, police said.
Lindsey Crow and Petika Hilton, both 18 of Pacific Grove, were also arrested and the second kayak and paddles were recovered, police said.
Another Store Closing – Business Was Just “Sew Sew”
Hand Maden. Not fans of the Farmer’s Market, they come out totally against it, complaining about the street being blocked. For one thing, their block is not part of the Farmers Market and second, they close at 5:00 pm. So what does the Market have to do with it?

File cabinets pried open? Someone looking to steal company secrets?

Letters From The Editor – Farmers Market
Rant: So Pacific Grove merchants don’t want people from outside Pacific Grove selling their wares at the Pacific Grove Certified Farmers Market. That almost makes sense, or it would if the only point to the whole thing was protection of the Pacific Grove merchants. But the customers ought to count for something, don’t you think? Unless we’re missing something, more vendors equals more stuff for sale equals more customers for everyone.
They don’t get it. If they had any sense of customer service they’d stay in town late and buy a booth to extend their wares to the street along side the rest, only with a message that they are also available the other days of the week.

The murder case against King, who had been in treatment at Natividad Medical Center but is back in custody at the Monterey County Jail, cannot proceed until she is aware of the proceedings. She underwent similar evaluations for competency in the weeks following her arrest, was treated and deemed fit, and had been set for a preliminary hearing last week, when her mental state was again brought into question.
