Supervisor Moorlach September 4 Update

Just received Supervisor John Moorlach's - MOORLACH UPDATE - Vacation - September 4, 2007. He neatly summarizes ALL the OC Register, LA Times, and Daily Pilot articles about him and County Treasurer/Tax Collector Chriss Street from the past week. Here you go...enjoy.

It seems as if the last year of my life has been the busiest. Consequently, a one-week vacation at home seemed the best thing to do. It gave me a chance to catch up on past due chores around the house. We also enjoyed our family tradition of camping over Labor Day Weekend.

The theme of my last e-mail seemed to carry throughout the week that I was gone. The news hit the Pilot and Register on Friday. The LA Times caught up on Saturday and the Register provided an update. On Monday Chriss held a press conference that was covered in Tuesday’s papers. On Tuesday Nick Berardino held a press conference that was covered in Wednesday’s papers. On Sunday the Pilot did their follow up and Bob Fauteux provided a great perspective from someone that has been on top of this from day one. Labor Day brought some more thoughts. Today appears to be quiet.

Here is a brief recap, in case you wanted to catch up. (It makes me glad that I’ve stopped sending out a separate e-mail for every article—thanks to many of your suggestions.)
