  • Happy St. Patrick’s Day0

    “Beannachtaí na Féile Pádraig ort!” — in other words, “May the blessing of St. Patrick’s Day be on you.” I am not Irish. Not even a little bit. According to 23andMe, I am Italian and German. Leaning heavily towards the Italian. But there’s nothing wrong with finding the Irish spirit and having some St. Patrick’s

  • What the Ladies are Thinking0

    A few weeks back I mentioned my intention to interview and feature the thoughts from women across the West Branch Valley.

  • Socialism – An Evil Veiled Deceptor0

    I wrote this column for the March 6, 2019, edition. This is prior to the DNC recognizing that Joe Biden was their best chance to win the Oval Office back. I understand there is a lot of water under the bridge since then and the world around us has gone mad in even more ways.

    As more challenges to our freedom and way of life in America seem to occur daily, I thought the Chinese spy balloon and all the recent sightings of UFOs seen was a good place to start this week. As Americans have turned their eyes to the skies, UFOs being reported seems to be a daily

    Yes, I know. It’s only February. But honestly, I prefer to get ‘Spring Cleaning’ done during the winter. Why? Because I would rather enjoy the spring. Get out of the house, and do something fun! I don’t want to waste the nice weather being inside cleaning. At the very least, I’d rather use the nice
