  • The Bookworm Sez: “What’s So Funny? A Cartoonist’s Memoir” by David Sipress0

    You never thought that you could tell a joke. Oh, you’d start off right, tucking in all the funny motions and voices. You’d do the build-up like it was meant to be and you’d pause at all the right places but much as you tried, the punchline never arrived, or it did and it was

  • Travel is Good for Your Health0

    In last week’s Living Well, I wrote about the benefit of walking on the beach, as I had recently been on vacation (it was way too short, by the way). In this week’s column, I’d like to discuss how and why travel is actually good for your health. Stacey Lastoe and Hilary Lebow, writers for

  • Benefits of Beach-Walking0

    My wife and I recently took our children on a much-needed vacation to the shore. While preparing to go on vacation can be more stressful than actually staying at work for me, I eventually get myself into vacation mode and really look forward to taking some time off. This is partly due to one of

    The Bookworm Sez: “Phasers on Stun: How the Making (and Remaking) of Star Trek Changed the World” by Ryan Britt0

    Every day, you like to go where no one has gone before. To the supermarket, to your bedroom down the hall, to your desk or workstation, even if you were just there, you like to make your journey a little bit different. Change is good, and in the new book “Phasers on Stun” by Ryan

  • Food Cost

    Food Cost0

    I’m one of those few people who LOVE to grocery shop. I enjoy walking up and down the isles to see what goodies I can find and prepare my family for the next two weeks of meals. The only time I don’t like going to the grocery store is when it’s too busy, and you

  • Classic Summer Accessories0

    With summer in full swing, the idea of accessorizing may just be a bit too much to handle in the heat. Who wants to think about — let alone wear — layers of jewelry, tight belts, and uncomfortable shoes, all for the sake of a “look” on a sweltering day? However, the right accessories can

  • Dad Style 20220

    In anticipation of Father’s Day, I wanted to take a moment as I did last year and pay tribute to “Dad Style,” which should not be confused with stylishly dressed men who happen to be fathers. The ongoing trend of Dad Style mimics how middle-aged men of two decades ago dressed on their day off

  • A Quartet for Brett: In Memory of a Local Movie Maven0

    Cinema lost a good friend last month. Brett S. Harrison, who lived in Philadelphia during recent years but grew up in Williamsport, passed away at age 62 in May. Older readers may recall the local Harrison Brothers Meat Packing business, co-owned by Brett’s beloved father, Donald — or perhaps Brett’s years of film criticism for

  • The Bookworm Sez: “Weird But True! Know-It-All Rocks & Minerals” by Michael Burgan0

    It wasn’t a very good trip. You caught the toe of your shoe on a rock, and you skinned your knee when you tried not to fall. Came down hard on your elbow, too, hurt your shoulder as you went, and you almost did a face-plant. You tripped; it wasn’t good but if you read

  • Be a Leader, Not a Follower0

    Be a Leader, Not a Follower Love Dad That’s what is tattooed on my left arm in my dad’s handwriting. Growing up, my dad, Lee Perry, taught my brother Luke and me always to lead the pack. Don’t ever try to be someone you’re not. Be your own person, and make people want to follow

  • First Annual Riverfest0

    On a cold day this past winter, Orlando Rodriguez with Rich Port Adventure Company and Laura Kitner from TK TacKle were discussing a plan to organize a Youth Kayak Safety Course this summer. After reaching out to Laurel Green with Montgomery Parks and Recreation for a location, a simple safety course for the kids quickly

  • Moving Forward 2.00

    I previously wrote an article titled, Moving Forward. The article was based on a story, which has been on my mind a lot recently, about Dean Furness, who was an analytic consultant for Wells Fargo. Furness was a very middle-class person; very average in every way. He was from the midwest and was married with
