  • April Fool’s

    April Fool’s0

    Good riddance may be the kindest thing I could say about the month of March as we push its disastrous thirty-one days into our rear-view mirror. What we are collectively enduring has been nothing to fool around about. It seems somewhat ironic that in the face of all this grimness the beginning of April brings

    The Commonwealth of PA is now on a temporary lockdown. Well that’s unless you are out buying beer, gathering ammo or playing the daily lottery. There is much debate on how this was actually determined. Governor Tom is faced with a very difficult situation. But what’s considered essential or life sustaining? The Pennsylvania Fish and

    The “In Between” Bass Lures.0

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been trying to simplify the vast array of lures available to today’s bass fishermen but the main thing to remember is to have a selection of lures that will cover the bottom, the surface and the mid-depth range.

    Find the Silver Lining We are in the midst of rather difficult times, with indications that things are “out of our hands” and we must be patient as the medical industry develops an answer to this current medical pandemic — the Chinese coronavirus. Directions and guidelines are relayed to us daily and sometimes almost hourly

    These are scary times. Unprecedented kids. The good folks at the Webb Weekly ask me to chime in each week. I usually write an article on something that deals with sports. But man, there really isn’t much to talk about.  We have been without any professional play. MLB, MLS, the NHL, the NBA and the

  • Where Were You?0

    ? “Where were you when the world stopped turning” inquired country singer Alan Jackson in his 2002 hit song recorded as a tribute to the victims of 9/11 and a reminder to the American public to stay strong and persevere. Most of us can recall where we were and what we were doing when those

  • An Interesting Week0

    The St. John Neumann Regional Academy’s 2019-20 season suddenly came to a close. We were nipped 59-57 by Southern Foulton at the horn. It was a tremendous game, but unfortunately all good things come an end. 22-5. Mid Penn and District 4 Champs. PIAA Sweet 16. Impressive, but it still hurts. Everyone took it very

  • The “Lure” of Bass Fishing0

    I suppose a better name for this piece would be “The lures of bass fishing” — plural instead of singular. Anybody who has ever gotten serious about their bass fishing fully understands what I mean when I say plural is more applicable; in fact, it’s a gross understatement. When I first got into bass fishing

  • McGarvey and the Warriors0

    Props to Coach Mike McGarvey and the Lycoming College hoopsters. The Warriors just did the unthinkable by winning the 2020 Middle Atlantic Conference Championship. This was a total shocker as my boys literally came out of nowhere. McGarvey’s squad was picked to finish last in all of the preseason polls. Kudos to the other MAC
