Dangerous deer
Question: We have a few
residents and a lot of deer
here on the Presidio of Mon-
terey. Our problem is the
deer have been very aggres-
sive toward some people re-
cently. I want to warn our
residents and students to
steer clear of them during
the rutting/mating season
but the message would be
best received coming from
an expert. Would you have
prepared info or be willing
to send me something we
could quote in an article on
staying safe during rutting
season?

APPLIANCE REPAIRS
John Prinvale, owner of John's Automotive
Electrical, has been doing small appliance repairs
for years whenever his automotive customers
asked him to.
Customers have brought John a of lot of different
things to fix, from grandma's sentimental toaster
to dad's favorite electric saw, and everything in
between.
ADVERTISING
John's interest in electric things began when he
got out of the army when one of his Dad's
friends introduced him to electric diagnostic
equipment. Over the years he has expanded his
knowledge by achieving certifications like those from Ford/Motorcraft and keeping up with
the latest advances with the internet, technical magazine and journals.
John really likes working on older electric appliances because they were made to last. Newer
ones are made to be more disposable. If you have something with electrical parts that isn't
working and you'd like to get it fixed, get hold of John at (530) 283-5555.
