Michael Haley I Agree with you. It is unknown what Obama knew about the IRS. My point is theRead More Elected Government is not doing the job we sent them to do. This is a Government drunk on power.

Apparently, there are two Michael Wilsons in Napa. Go figure. HRM

Obama had nothing to do with this. Michael I hate to tell you this but the only people who thinkRead More there is anything much toward Obama in all these scandals are hard core conservatives who have been trying to pin something/anything on him since before he got the first Presidential nomination. I read the Tea Party stuff every day and it is a full court press on anything they can conjure up to blame on Obama and after a while it is a case of crying wolf on a daily basis and everyone else just tunes it out. Which is too bad because there are actually some things he ought to be criticized for, but his opposition is so constantly ridiculously over the top that before the Republicans even speak you already know it is either an exaggeration or totally fabricated. They have no credibility left, at least with me.

Keri, I'm not frustrated that I don't have a profile pic, I'm frustrated that I'm not able to do itRead More myself. I can wait until it works properly so I can find one that fits the itty-bitty round format.

I think with any new technology whether it be an upgrade or new platform, there are always going toRead More be bugs. it's just the nature of technology. I personally like this new layout and understand that there will be bugs to fix. Looking good Napa Valley Patch!!

Hi Steve: Sorry about this. I'm as frustrated as you are. Could you email me your profile photo andRead More I will just ask the tech people to upload it for you? Please send to keri.brenner@patch.com. Thanks,

This should be removed. He was located in the Northwest and contacted his family.
MICHAEL WILSON May 20, 2013 at 08:40 am
Ya Wendy I do hope he returns. I am not sure why the police are calling him a runaway
Wendy Garcia May 20, 2013 at 05:17 am
He is NOT a runaway. This kid is MISSING and his family needs police assistance to find him.

Keri, I have heard from the tech people, and my instructions were to clear cache, erase cookies,Read More reboot, etc. All things having to do with my computer, not with the website. I get the same issues on two different computers at different homes as well as my iPad that is logged on anywhere. Pretty sure it is not on my end. There are far too many things that are a step down from previous site. Examples: Can't seperate paragraphs in comments, no "reply" option on comments makes it difficult to know who is responding to whom, itty-bitty profile avatars smaller than a pea, green on everything makes features less distinguishable, on and on.

Hi USS and MW The tech people are making fixes every day. If you can give me specific bugs, withRead More links, please do so so that I can let them know. Thanks for your patience....
