THE CONTRA COSTA REPUBLICAN PARTY

In our offices perched precariously due to faulty sheer walling high on the side of Hero Hill, recently we received an email informing us that the Contra Costa County, California, Repulican Campaign Headquarters is located at 1320 El Capitan Drive, in Danville. Full time Staff member is Thomas Midanek. The telephone number is 925-930-9551. The Contra Costa Republican Party is chaired by Betty Kolberg. She & I do not go way back but she sounds like she would the right choice also to bring order to an unruly sock drawer. Tell Betty Kamaroh sent you.,

KAMAROH'S HALL OF HEROES LIST:

Carroll Shelby: 1923 Capricorn as is Kamaroh. He is one of my faulted heroes and is one of the first inductees into Kamaroh's KAOG club!
Bill Lane 1919 to 2010: Publisher of Sunset Magazine from the Fifties until 1990. . Wanted his magazine to embody and protect the West's natural beauty. Causes were "Yosemite Fund;" "National Parks Conservation Fund;" and, "The Bill Lane Center for the American West at Stanford!"
Colin Powell: I like his level intelligence.He is also a good example of my belief that triumph is possible for the common man.
Walt Disney: Because of the fun! I have always been a fan his cartoons of course. I also admire his business skills.
Bill Clinton: I am a Republican and so this is not easy for me. but I think his effort in Pyongyang to rescue Euna Lee and Laura Ling is above and beyond and definitely heroic!
Paul John Teutal, American Choppers! I am a little iffy about this hero. I do have respect for his fearless and direct challenges to the behavior of his sons. I also like his ability to acquire material resources that provide him with a manly lifestyle.
My Father: Robert, US Army Mustang Officer WWII
Norman Schartzkopf, Stormin' Norman, US ARMY-- DESERT STORM! (General/Republican).
My Grandfather: Louis, (Farmer/Story Teller) Colorado. He was a frail man who is a hero by special circumstance. While I was at his farm reccuperating from Polio & unable to attend school, he taught me to read and to write. He would tell wonderfull stories until my grandmother would yell at him to stop.
My Grandfather: Fred, (Farmer/Rock Hound), Nebraska.
C.C. Myers, Building Contractor, Rancho Cordova
Larry Ellison, Founder & CEO Oracle Corporation
Chuck Yeager, USAF Major General
John Force, NHRA funny Car Champion
