It’s probably not the Easter message you expected, but for the sake of argument, let’s set aside miracles, repentance, heaven, hell and claims of divinity. Countless people who …
Naming children is a task we should really take time to research and contemplate. We have a son, Esjae, pronounced SJ, who tells us we should have just called him, “Buddy,” because when anyone reads his name, that’s what they call him.
R epublicans are never going to impeach Joe Biden. I wish more Republicans would beat that fact into their skulls. Just as Democrats weren’t able to impeach Donald Trump because they …
This year we observe the 37th anniversary of Women’s History Month, which is a celebration of women’s contributions to history, culture, society, and business.

When Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro engaged in a legal battle with the Little Sisters of the Poor over their refusal to subsidize birth control for their employees, I got very angry. As a …
There’s a saying, “Find someone to love and drag them to the end with you.” Poor Gar, he really should have taken a longer minute to reevaluate his spouse selection.

Last month, Senator Cynthia Lummis voted to support the Providing Reliable, Objective, Verifiable Emissions Intensity and Transparency (PROVE IT) Act despite heavy lobbying from groups that oppose President Donald Trump’s America First trade agenda.
Gar decided he needed a colonoscopy. It had been 10 years since his last one and apparently, he enjoyed it and wanted a redo. In the past, if you wanted one and who wouldn’t, you called your doctor and he set it up. Those days are gone because somebody realized they could get another dollar from your wallet. Now you have to meet with qualifiers.
