Hot Potatoes — 2/6/07

*House kills Otter’s grocery tax bill/Betsy Russell, Spokesman-Review — Good call. Rep. Dick Harwood of St. Maries was even right on this one. You know what they say about broken clocks …

*Bonner County crews rescue injured Coolin snowmobiler/Caroline Lobsinger, Bonner County Daily Bee — Our search & rescue crews deserve all the kudos they get for their incredible work saving lives and finding lost people. Saaalute.

*Thieves pilfering donations from Post Falls senior thrift store/Annie Bishop, KXLY.com — How long can you go?

*A WCC stunner: Lions claw out 67-61 upset of Zags/Steve Bergum, Spokesman-Review — If Heytvelt, Raivio & Co. don’t win the WCC tourney, they could find themselves watching March Madness on the sidelines with the rest of us this year.

*Fire district snuffs long-standing debt/Keith Kinnaird, Bonner County Daily Bee — The Sagle Fire District — and the three firefighters who agreed to a pay cut during its financial struggles — deserve credit for seeing this thing through and repaying its debt.
