For the past 25 years I have been involved with live theatre. Believe it or not, I have been in over 70 musicals, a dozen drama plays, three original plays I directed and co-wrote. In addition, I have been in four films.
Increasingly people are telling me that they have stopped watching national news networks. To a person the comments are basically the same: “It upsets me too much to watch the news programs and I don’t trust them anymore.
We had a chicken yard when I was growing up and one of my jobs was to gather eggs. It sounds simple enough, however when you have to fight your way past a couple of roosters it is not that easy.
A school closure can have a significant impact on a community – which is why the Jackson County School Board should take time to consider the consequences of closing Sneads Elementary School and sending students to a new K-8 school in Grand Ridge.
Advanced technology has changed our world.

Thank God that we’re around for another year! Being thankful from the beginning of the year can be a great thing to do. In fact, each day when we awaken we should express our thanks to God.
This year instead of a New Year’s resolution I have decided to make a wish list for the coming year.
The New Year is here!
We had the youngest grandchildren this weekend, Trey and Anabelle. They certainly make Christmas a joyous time of year.
The Christmas Holiday may be observed on Dec. 25th, but the before- and after-effect it brings will continue to linger a while after that date.
What do you want for Christmas? That seems to be a common question this time of year. However, it can be a perplexing one at the same time.
December is the time to start letting go of the year. It’s hard sometimes to let go, maybe it would better be said that it is time to pry yourself loose from, in this case, 2022.
There’s something that we feel during this time of the year that most of us don’t feel at any other time of the year.
It is hard to believe, but children born in 1941 would be 81 years old this year, which means if you were 18 years old when Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, you would be 99 years old now. That is why most of the people that were around during World War II as adults have passed on.
We’re getting closer to what many of us consider the most popular Holiday of the year.
Eddie was a unique child growing up; he was born two-and-a-half months premature in 1954, way before today’s technology. It was a lot of prayer and challenging work on the part of doctors, nurses, and especially our parents that he survived.
This time of the year is exciting to many of us, but not all of us.
During these trying times, we often forget just how much we have to be thankful for. We all have a tendency to place the bad things ahead of the good things.

My mother lived through the Great Depression and on occasion we would talk about those times.
