    Play Ball!0

    Every year, I mention that I think of the Little League World Series as the unofficial end of summer. Normally, I see that unofficial end coming, but I’ve got to be honest: it’s really snuck up on me this year. I can’t remember the last time that summer has felt so short! But, since this

  • Making a Budget Impasse, Passable0

    The high school football fields have come back to life across the West Branch Valley, and next week, I’ll be writing about the Little League World Series and all the good things going on in our area.

    A New School Year is Coming0

    OK, OK, don’t come for me, but it’s getting to be that time. No one likes it, no one wants to think about it, but the new school year is right around the corner. Believe it or not, we are just a couple of weeks out from the first Friday Night Lights. While summer break

  • You’re Doing a Great Job, Joe!0

    One of the things that keeps coming up in my conversations with people is the kill them with kindness approach.

  • Shameless Promotion

    Shameless Promotion0

    One of the best parts of my job is that Jimmy lets me write about just about anything that I want to. So that means if I want to use my space to shamelessly promote something amazing that a friend or family member is doing, he’s cool with it. So that’s what we are going

  • Who Knew I was a Sportswriter?0

    Jimmy has headed down the shore for a little vacation, so I’m taking up the helm this week. No worries, he’ll be back next week! In his absence, it only seems fitting that we should talk about all things sports. I’m not usually a sportswriter, but I think I can handle it. Maybe. We’ll see.

  • Baby, It’s Hot Outside0

    The middle of July can mean just one thing in these parts; it’s time for the Lycoming County Fair. Th is especially holds true in the eastern end of the county. What a great All-American event that celebrates the area we call home. This week’s cover informed me this is the 152nd celebration of farming,

  • Stay Hydrated0

    It has been what can only be described as disrespectfully hot outside. And you know what? Normally I don’t mind, but the humidity being at 1,053% is making it unbearable (and not doing my curly hair any favors). Since it’s eleventy billion degrees, but also in prime time for outside summer fun, it’s important that

  • Trust Nothing, Question Everything0

    I want to begin this column by saying that I understand that everybody wants to be right — whether it’s social media or mainstream media. They want to share their story and thoughts and make you believe what they’re saying is right. They will baffle you with knowledge, numbers, analytics, and information that supports their
