Advertiser says
Business Briefs tries!
Dear Publisher,
No one can say that you
don't aim to please. Here's
the (ad) copy. If you can
manage to get it in (late
change), that would be great.
Regards,
Scott Wirth, Ace Hardware
Publisher’s response: Dear
Scott, One of our competitors,
the SneakPeak weekly,
has the following Late Fee
Policy, according to their rate
sheet: “Each advertiser is
guaranteed two changes per
ad per week. If you have
three or more changes, you
will be charged $25.00 per
adjustment. Corrections do
not apply. A late fee will be
applied for any materials
submitted after the deadline.
The fee is $50.00 per ad.”
Business Briefs does none of
this - never has and never
will! Our policy is very simple,
as stated in the blue box
of the Business Briefs 2012-
2013 Publication Schedule,
often on the back page of the
paper. Our policy is, “Past
the deadline? Call anyway!”
If we can possibly make the
changes (free, of course) any
advertiser requests past the
deadline, and still meet our
print deadline, why wouldn’t
we? And, we will never
charge a production fee, let
alone a late fee. Business
Briefs is in the business to
serve our advertisers - our

valued customers. We aren’t
perfect, nor claim to be, but
we try to do our best for you
and thanks for noticing. We
do “aim to please!”
Vail resident opposed
to selling town hall!
Dear Publisher,
This is in reference to
your article in the February
9th edition regarding (the
Vail council’s attempted sale
of) Town of Vail property.
This subject MUST be
kept on the FRONT PAGE of
your newspaper. I encourage
the other newspaper, the
Vail Daily, to do the same.
This project, as presented
by the Town of Vail, is one
big mistake.
Dick Neal, Vail
Publisher’s response: Your
wish is our command! When
I approached Don Rogers,
the Daily’s publisher, and
suggested they “bit” about
all the propaganda that the
town would make so much
money off the medical center,
I explained that the town
receives no sales tax and
property tax revenues directly
from this deal. Rogers
said, “I get your point,” but
never did anything about it.
That is why Business Briefs
exists. We actually try to do
what’s best for the community,
no matter the cost to us
personally. Always have,
always will. The publisher
suggests you contact Kaye
Jobs for Gypsum!

appreciate Business Briefs!
Dear Publisher,
You guys may be the
dumbest people to ever put a
newspaper out in the history
of the world. You suck!
Your article on the limo
situation is a joke. Check the
Public Utility Commission
(PUC) laws on what limos
are allowed to do. They can't
stage within 150 ft of a taxi
stand and they cant pick up
walk ups. The end. Its the
law, you idiots.
The cops enforce those
things called laws. Just get a
taxi license if you want to be
a taxi. You people are so stupid
it hurts.
The owner of that rag
you call a "Business Briefs"
doesn't go to New York
because the taxi drivers
smell? Amazing journalism.
Your comments on all of
the alleged incidents to with
this article had no facts to
back them up. None! Its not
journalism if you can't substantiate
any of your "facts."
If you are reading this
and you didn't have anything
to do with this awful
article, you need to quit that
crap hole of a rag and get a
real job. You will only hurt
yourself by listing this place
on your resume. Wow! I can't
believe how bad this is.
Words can't describe how
bad of a paper you put out.
The "Enquirer" called.
They want their idiot writers
back to write about Elvis
being alive with aliens in
another galaxy.

whatever
Publisher’s response: Dear
whoever wrote this? Since
you failed to sign your name,
we cannot be certain who
you are. We love letters like
yours. You get to allege. We
get to respond.

we get to opine. We are all
entitled to our opinions. We
agree that allegations are not
always facts. Duh!
• The Public Utility
Commission is not the
supreme law of the land. The
federal constitution is. They
used to teach that in the public
high schools. Laws that
violate the constitution are
“null and void and of no
force or effect” - Marbury vs.
Madison U. S. Supreme
Court decision around 1814?
• We are entitled to not go
anywhere we don’t want to.
The publisher is not fond of
New York. The publisher’s
last trip to New York was to
bust a Bernie Madoff kind of
guy who ripped off two
older women for $360,000.00.
The publisher set him up, the
Postal detective offered the
publisher a job as a Postal
detective, and the 35-yearold
female U. S. attorney literally
jumped up and down
when she realized the publisher
got the goods on the
bad guy! The publisher
respectfully declined the job,
saying he’d rather live in
Colorado.
• Quit our job? But the low
pay and the incredibly long
hours, including all-nighters
during deadline week, are so
attractive. Why work a real
job (40 hours per week)
when we can work 80 to 100
hours per week?
• Occasionally, the publisher
does dumb things.
• Occasionally, the publisher
is an idiot.
• Occasionally, the publisher
does suck - hot fudge marshmallow
milk shakes that he
invented while working as a
soda jerk in high school.
That’s soda jerk, not sort-ofa-jerk.
• Occasionally, the publisher
cracks funny jokes, but isn’t
quitting his day job, even
though you’d like him to.
• We dislike monopolies -
ski mountain monopolies,
newspaper monopolies, the
former NBC, ABC, CBS
monopolies until cable
came into being, and taxi
monopolies.
• We do like freedom. We
like the freedom to write our
opinion, and the freedom to
print your opinion. We think
limos, taxis and their customers
should be free, also.
• We miss Elvis!
