Those who thrive on superstition, however, might wish that one were possible. For several weeks, this column has dealt with inordinately serious topics, so […]

Ms. Gilbert taught more than English

There are no do-overs in life or junior English. Just lessons learned. One of those lessons learned for all of us has to be how to get their foot out of their mouth from time to time. I learned this one the hard way several years ago. Right after I got back to my hometown […]

Every culture has criminal element

Sometimes it pays to listen to the radio in the car. Being a serious Sirius aficionado, I usually do not tune in to regular broadcasts. Perhaps, as I discovered while using my wife's car to move items, I should listen more often. Had I not done so, I would not have heard the NPR story […]

Time to live up to friend’s teaching

‘Smart’ devices mystifying
