Defeat snatched from the jaws of victory and I don’t feel so good myself.<br /> Stunning. Inexplicable.<br /> My stomach hasn’t churned with angst and despair like that since Colville High came up inches short of a Class 1A championship several weeks ago in the Tacoma Dome.</p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --><p><a href="http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/another-take-chris-cowbrough" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/another-take-chris-cowbrough#comments Tue, 27 Jan 2015 19:54:04 +0000 editor 5583 at http://www.statesmanexaminer.com Sophie’s Choice: A holiday reminder http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophie%E2%80%99s-choice-holiday-reminder <!-- google_ad_section_start --><p> I. Me. Mine. No, this is not a Beatle’s song (though I bet it’s stuck in your head now). It’s just the subject that most of us are centered on, myself included. It’s an easy theme to get caught up in. We’re all making our way, wondering how we are going to keep doing so, second guessing ourselves, failing, trying again, etc.<br /> Self-centeredness seems especially popular now, when you live in an age where we think posting photos of our dinner and broadcasting that we are going to the gym on social media are somehow newsworthy occurrences. But hey, everyone to his or her own news feed. </p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --><p><a href="http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophie%E2%80%99s-choice-holiday-reminder" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophie%E2%80%99s-choice-holiday-reminder#comments Mon, 22 Dec 2014 21:45:26 +0000 editor 5527 at http://www.statesmanexaminer.com Sophie's Choice: I am a wuss http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophies-choice-i-am-wuss <!-- google_ad_section_start --><p> I am not a sissy la-la. Or at least, I like to think I am not. Having a nurse for a mother and being raised in a place where your playpen consisted of mud pits, I don’t get weirded out by blood and dirt. Snakes? I find them fascinating. Bugs? Pretty hardy critters themselves (the nuclear holocaust may wipe us off the map like a magic marker on a dry erase board, but cockroaches will live on). True, I don’t get excited at the prospect of running into one of those dog-sized rats I saw in Italy, but that’s why man created the .22. </p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --><p><a href="http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophies-choice-i-am-wuss" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophies-choice-i-am-wuss#comments Wed, 22 Oct 2014 17:19:22 +0000 editor 5409 at http://www.statesmanexaminer.com Sophie's Choice: The readers have spoken! http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophies-choice-readers-have-spoken <!-- google_ad_section_start --><p> I can’t lie, good readers, I was simultaneously delighted and a bit disappointed that the pitchforks and torches got left at home (or at least in the pick-up truck) at the last two Coffee with Sophie sessions. After all, it’s hard for a girl to get cute cardigans over Teflon body armor and not look like you are carrying around that extra bulk.</p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --><p><a href="http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophies-choice-readers-have-spoken" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophies-choice-readers-have-spoken#comments Fri, 17 Oct 2014 16:02:55 +0000 editor 5404 at http://www.statesmanexaminer.com Is Stevens County at the end of its ‘wolf rope?’ by Chris Cowbrough http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/stevens-county-end-its-%E2%80%98wolf-rope%E2%80%99-chris-cowbrough <!-- google_ad_section_start --><p>Several days ago, elected officials from Stevens County traveled to Pasco to sit in on a meeting of the nine-member Washington State Fish and Game Commission. Also in attendance at the meeting was Hunters-area farmers and sheep-herders, Dave and Julie Dashiell. Unless you’ve been living off the grid, you probably know that the Dashiell’s lost at least two-dozen dead sheep (confirmed) to wolves. The bigger story is that this long-time area family is still missing upwards of 300 sheep.</p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --><p><a href="http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/stevens-county-end-its-%E2%80%98wolf-rope%E2%80%99-chris-cowbrough" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/stevens-county-end-its-%E2%80%98wolf-rope%E2%80%99-chris-cowbrough#comments Fri, 10 Oct 2014 16:05:01 +0000 editor 5382 at http://www.statesmanexaminer.com House Call - By Julie Crist http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/house-call-julie-crist-0 <!-- google_ad_section_start --><p>The next big thing: Konjac</p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --><p><a href="http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/house-call-julie-crist-0" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/house-call-julie-crist-0#comments Wed, 01 Oct 2014 16:54:37 +0000 editor 5362 at http://www.statesmanexaminer.com SPEAKING OF SPORTS By Chris Cowbrough http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/speaking-sports-chris-cowbrough <!-- google_ad_section_start --><p>A lot to talk about this week</p> <p>The high school sports’ season(s) got underway with Friday Night Lights and Friday Afternoon Sunshine from outposts like Hunters and Inchelium—to Kettle Falls and Colville.<br /> From my cheap seat, all I have to say is it’s about time.” As an unabashed sports fan of the mostly college and high school persuasion, I have been eagerly awaiting the start of high school sports. Yes, it tends to ratchet up my workload exponentially, but that’s okay. What else am I going to do? It’s all about being a good sport all ways and always being a good sport.</p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --><p><a href="http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/speaking-sports-chris-cowbrough" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/speaking-sports-chris-cowbrough#comments Wed, 10 Sep 2014 19:10:11 +0000 editor 5326 at http://www.statesmanexaminer.com Sophie's Choice: Straight talk on the bi-way http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophies-choice-straight-talk-bi-way <!-- google_ad_section_start --><p> Let’s talk about sexual orientation.<br /> For those of you who I haven’t immediately lost to another section of the newspaper, thank you for staying with me. I mean no rudeness, crudeness, or offense. But we’re all adults, and I would like to write about an issue that has been nagging at me for a while now. </p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --><p><a href="http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophies-choice-straight-talk-bi-way" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophies-choice-straight-talk-bi-way#comments Wed, 16 Apr 2014 18:31:56 +0000 editor 5144 at http://www.statesmanexaminer.com Sophie's Choice: The Mythical Beast of Wedlock http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophies-choice-mythical-beast-wedlock <!-- google_ad_section_start --><p> Marriage has always been like my own personal Sasquatch. Do I really believe in it? I’ve fluctuated between “Yes, I’ve seen the proof!” to “No, if you examine the footage closer you will see that’s actually a dissatisfied couple in a gorilla suit.” Other times, I have simply been awed and inspired by other’s commitment to the Love Kool-Aid and their fondness and respect for their partner as they take the ride called life together. </p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --><p><a href="http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophies-choice-mythical-beast-wedlock" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://www.statesmanexaminer.com/content/sophies-choice-mythical-beast-wedlock#comments Tue, 28 Jan 2014 17:46:27 +0000 editor 5028 at http://www.statesmanexaminer.com
