  • Movie Time0

    My good friend Nick Tagliaferri and I were somewhat celebrities back in the day. OK. It was a long time ago. In a galaxy far, far away.

  • Landmark Lands Lycoming0

    “You can’t tell the players without a scorecard” has long been the traditional cry of scorecard vendors inside the entrance of baseball stadiums.

  • Animal Oddities0

    As a wildlife artist and an avid outdoorsman, I am obviously very intrigued by wildlife, especially when something new or unusual shows up.

    It is a commonly heard phrase among turkey hunters: “If you can’t kill a turkey, then kill a coyote!” It does happen on occasion when calling spring gobblers that you may be unpleasantly surprised as a coyote shows up – slinking his way toward you in response to your calling.

  • Be Nice to Refs0

    Officiating high school basketball is hard. It is a very difficult and thankless job. I give my friends in stripes a lot of credit. You see, there is a major shortage with the local PIAA circuit.
