Timothy Timmerman

For my piece on the price and conservation of water I would like to include an interview with Timothy Timmerman, the board chair of the LCRA, and lives in Travis county. Mr.Timmerman has served on the LCRA board since 2008, and was appointed chair by Governor Rick Perry last January. His term will last 2 more years. As board chair he would be qualified and knowledgeable enough to regulate, maintain, and observe a water supply of a large metropolitan area. He would have information relevant to my article because he would know about the levels of water supply in our area, as well as the usage, and possibly price. Mr. Timmerman would know what methods of water conservation are succesful, and why people use or do not use water. This all ties into the subject of my article, having to do with water price, in terms of usage rates, availability, and supply.

Feature Story

For my feature story, I would like to interview the owner (or employee) of a firing range off of 290. I have yet to contact this person, and am unsure as to his willingness to participate (or my safety). I will still need to look into this more, seeing as how the owner may not be willing to participate in the interview. However, after a quick google map search, I have discovered that there are many gun stores in the Austin area, and I'm sure that if I'm persistent enough I can get an interview out of one of them. It'll be interesting to get a perspective from someone who is obviously a gun enthusiast and requires the legality of firearms for a large part of their income. This will provide an interesting contrast my position of banning firearms.

George's March 9th Post

Spring break is almost here, that's pretty good. My group has finished our ASF's, and are still waiting to conference with Ms.Richey. Today we completed the Unit 2 1st Quiz and voted on Corey Dillard's pick up lines list.

March is Here

I am so glad it is March. I've always liked this month a lot. It has great weather, it is the beginning of the spring, I also feel like it's the very beginning of the end of the year, there is spring break, and my birthday is the 22nd. I hope you all can join in my appreciation of March.
Thanks, and goodbye - George
