Studied at Peninsula College off and on after high school, never earned a degree. I learn more by doing than being brainwashed into liberal dogma.
My interest in publishing a news blog began actually by selling newspapers and magazines at one of the local shopping malls by operating a newsstand.
From there after my little stint working at the local Safeway store as "greeter" I started my first online publication known as the Port Angeles Journal. During that time I also ran for city council as well, and other runs for council after that time frame. I published the Journal for about 12 years, then stopped publishing anything for about two years. Then, in 2012 I started the current publication the Ripley Report, now recently changed to The Port Angeles Globe, I thought it was more appropriate because it's not just about my opinion on news events, it became more of a reflection of not only our little corner, but the world around us.

I allow comments about news stories published, not comments that are ads. We charge for those, so if you use the comments section as ads, they'll be deleted.
The Night Owl Comics, a publication of the Port Angeles Globe. Is a collection of stories written by Peter Ripley. I came up with the title of the page, because when I was younger I stayed up late at night. I don't do that anymore, but the sprit of the Night Owl lives on in the pages of the news blog. I fine it a good source of mental therapy keeps my mind focused.
