Karl Rove, who will speak at a San Bernardino County Republican Party fundraiser at the Etiwanda Gardens on Friday, might get a friendlier reception here than in Claremont but it's too soon to tell. The event, spearheaded by Jim Brulte, begins at 3 p.m. and lasts until 11 p.m.  5 p.m. 

The Backbone Campaign, the folks who brought you the chain gang pictured here, are already organizing a "welcome party" for Rove. Let's see how they will fare in this Republican city.

[Oct. 8: The sheriff's apparently are prepared.] 

I always thought the Rotary Club was a milquetoast kind of service club. It's got great intentions but a Rotary Club meeting isn't my idea of a Friday night.

Unless it's Oct. 17 when the club hosts the annual Texas Hold'em championship with a buy in at $150. The price, (credit cards accepted), includes a dinner buffet and unlimited beer, wine and soda. Woo-hoo!

The fun starts at 5 p.m. at Etiwanda Gardens located 7576 Etiwanda Ave. Proceeds go toward scholarships, libraries and other club sponsored charities.

Call Dick at (909) 463-6687 for questions about the event. Want to know more about the club? Send Joe Bert an e-mail.
