By Kathi Bliss Editor/POST-REGISTER   Once again this week, the Commissioners Court heard a public hearing about a proposed subdivision in rural Caldwell County – this time, a development that will break up some 80 acres into five-acre tracts. And once again this week, the folks of Caldwell County entertained me. You see, for the [...]

To the Editor: Recent revelations from the Republican Executive Committee really have me concerned. It appears that the recent landslide by Democrat candidates has caused much anger and frustration within the party and much finger-pointing and blaming. I can certainly understand; it’s not easy to lose elections. Introspection is a good thing, and I really [...]

To the People of Caldwell County: The last three years as your Precinct One Commissioner has been a real honor. I have learned so much about our county and state, but most important to me, is all the new relationships I have made. People that I would not have had the pleasure of meeting was [...]

By Kathi Bliss Editor/POST-REGISTER   I’ve noticed a disturbing trend, here lately. A couple of times over the last several weeks, I’ve received reports from readers who are concerned about getting the word out about themselves or their relatives being targets of online, telephone or mail scams.

This is Texas, after all – and Central Texas, at that – and I’ve never really been a football fan. In fact, when I had to start covering Lion football this season and [...]

By Kathi Bliss Editor/POST-REGISTER   I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m starting to think that Nov. 7, 2012, is going to be my favorite day of this year. I simply cannot wait until this election is over. We go through this every year, with the negative campaigning. Obviously, despite how much people complain [...]

By Kathi Bliss Editor/POST-REGISTER For the better part of the last decade, I have listened while the Caldwell County Commissioners Court passes the buck to the State of Texas.
