Find Yourself Some Bunny to Love

Posted by Carol Parker, February 17, 2012 at 12:44 pm

Petco Stores around the country will be hosting a bunny adoption weekend Feb. 18 and 19 from 1 to 2 p.m.

The Alameda store at South Shore Center will have adoptable rabbits who need a home on display and visitors will have a chance to cuddle up with them and see if they're a perfect pet for their family.

For more information, call the store at 510-864-1844.

I'm more concerned, myself, about traffic light/stop sign violations. Speeding doesn't seem, to me,…Read More to be that widespread, although, yeah, it's hard to keep discipline on Fernside, which, let's face it, is a "boulevard". That really ought to be addressed, tho, maybe a couple of stop signs to break it up. I'm a fan of those "your speed is..." signs, it's my observation that most "passive" speeders just need to be reminded to slow down a bit. Works for me, anyway. ;-)

I've heard there aren't enough police anymore. We live on Fernside and cars FLY by at very high…Read More spees. When we first moved here six years ago there were cops with radar on Fernside all the time. I haven't seen one there in over four years. Folks also try to miss the High Street traffic and they cut through back side streets at very high speeds. Side streets where kids are playing all the time. It's very dangerous. I wish folks would think first; will it really be worth saving 30-60 seconds if you end up killing a child? Be courteous, be safe. Even 25 on the side streets is way too fast.

I still remember taking my little kids there on opening day to celebrate all the hard work and it still gives me goosebumps. It really is a beautiful building. I think they incorporated the new theaters in a way that doesn't detract from the historic theater. The fact that my kids, now older, can walk there and meet their friends for a truly home town theater experience makes it all better.
