  • There Is a God; You’re Not Him0

    Tim Hartzell

    I know the title I chose for this week is offensive to some. I understand. Frankly, it’s a bit offensive to me. Something within the heart of every one of us wants to believe that we are the top. That we are the masters of our own destinies. That we can define our own morality.

  • The Narrow Road0

    Tim Hartzell

    We’re living in divided times. Why? Because people are becoming very narrow-minded and incapable of understanding and respecting someone else’s point of view. Worse, they seem completely unwilling to even try. It’s their way or the highway. It’s driving us all crazy. With a big holiday coming up in just a few days, families will

    This week’s write-up has very little to do with sports. I only wanted to give my boys a quick shout. My full-time gig is with Susquehanna Marble and Granite. Yes. There is never a dull moment. I just celebrated my fifth anniversary. We are quite busy. My fellow work chums say that I am a

    Terri Schlichenmeyer

    One hundred eighty degrees. That’s where you want to be after something very bad has occurred. You want as far as possible away from it, miles out of reach, an exact opposite situation, pronto, thank you. A new schedule, different place, rearrangement, anything that’s not that anymore. As in the new book “All the Beauty

  • What the Ladies are Thinking0

    Jim Webb

    A few weeks back I mentioned my intention to interview and feature the thoughts from women across the West Branch Valley. The question I would be asking was with all that is currently going on across our nation and beyond, what worries them the most. I thought this would be a simple topic to cover;

  • Considerations for Retirees Thinking of Working Part-Time0

    Family Features

    Retirement is an opportunity to wave goodbye to the daily grind. Retirees may focus on rest and relaxation, and many make travel a major component of their lifestyle. According to a 2022 Gallup poll, Americans expect to retire at an average age of 66, up from 62 in 2022. However, most do not hold out

  • Timing Is Everything0

    Jim Webb

    Before I get to my thoughts on how much time remains for our 46th President to call the White House his home, I’ll begin with some positive light. The cover of the Webb Weekly reads February the 1st, and that’s great news. January is in the rear-view mirror; the groundhog will soon be coming out

    Scott Lowery

    The Christmas presents have all been unwrapped, some of them exchanged, the year’s allotment of vacation days is about to disappear, and plans for New Year’s Eve have been resolved.

  • A Reckless and Dangerous Decision0

    Jim Webb

    Christmas came early this past week in the highest-profile vape and cannabis oil case ever witnessed. I’m going to pick my words wisely, be brief, and not allow the Biden administration to turn me into the grinch with a pen. Most importantly, I don’t want to rant and allow the madness of the world to

    A Date of Infamy, Honor, and Remembrance0

    Jim Webb

    With our cover date reading December 7th, I would be remiss as an American if I didn’t begin my column with what occurred 81 years ago. Over the past several years, it has become most evident that our Nation must not only remember our history but learn from it. As I watch the reports regarding

  • A Red Ripple at Best0

    Jim Webb

    The best thing I can say regarding last week’s midterm elections is that thank goodness they’re in the books, and I don’t have to watch any more political advertising. I have talked to many republicans and democrats, and that was usually one of the first things they said. Before I get to my take on

  • Self-Care Schedule0

    Bernadette Ulsamer

    Self-care is a term that’s been bantered about for quite some time. It has different meanings for different people. It can and does include mental health, physical well-being, spiritual fortitude, and a sense of safety and security. As we begin to prepare for the rollercoaster of the holiday season, now might be the time to

  • Domestic Violence Awareness Month0

    Steph Nordstrom

    It’s not an easy topic to discuss and not one that you would typically find on the cover of Webb Weekly. However, it is difficult to consider yourself a ‘Family-Oriented Newspaper’ without acknowledging how domestic violence affects families. It affects families right here in our cities, towns, and boroughs. I feel that we would be

    Larry Stout

    There is a wake-up call with retirement. In one sense, it seems fantastic that the daily drudgery of going to work is finally in the rearview mirror. Finally, there is the freedom to travel, pick up a new hobby, or just spend more time with family and friends. But the other reality is that the

    Steph Nordstrom

    This week we are bringing you everything outdoors. We have lots of great stuff about hunting, fishing, safety, and generally enjoying all that Pennsylvania offers outside. I…don’t have a lot to contribute to the conversation because I’m not exactly outdoorsy. Don’t get me wrong, I do enjoy a nice hike every now and again, but

    Pets can be excitable. Though dogs anxious to get outdoors and play with their owners may be the first image of excited pets to come to mind, cats also can be compelled to move quickly when they hear sudden, loud noises or if they’re startled by visitors. Excited pets can pose a safety hazard in

    September is National Preparedness Month, which certainly does not cause parades and festivals from communities around the country — but it is something that we should not just push aside lightly.

    It was a beautiful, sun-drenched, late-summer morning. It appeared all was right in the world. The early day’s sun was still very warm, the smell of fall was in the air.

    Since we don’t have term limits in Washington, you would think President Biden and all his cronies would understand just how fragile America’s freedom truly is. They lived through 9/11 in 2001.
