Been to a good movie lately? Oh yeah, there are some good movies being made. I know it doesn’t seem like it. Not like the old days when they really knew how to make movies. But that really is just a misconception on our part

There I was, sitting near my grandfather, James R. Coker, back in the early ‘60s. He loved to tell me stories from his past.

Both the hunter-gathers and the farming Indians were usually better nourished than the average European.

Recently, a new king sized mattress appeared in my life. No box springs - just the mattress - which left me with an overstuffed, unwieldy bed to get rid of.

Oh, it was causing some problems all right, like you wouldn’t believe. Not only for the agency that issued it, but to a host of other folks too. Today, we’re in an age of numbers, computers and digital tracking.

If ever there was a youngster who had an image problem it was Eugene. Eugene Orowitz was a nerdy-looking kid from New Jersey who just didn’t seem to fit in anywhere. Didn’t matter where - school, synagogue, play ground - he was always the kid left out.

The fall colors are here. We all want to ride out and catch a glimpse of nature’s wonders as she gets ready for the winter.

Being born with a silver trowel in my mouth, God simply put gardening in me. Anytime I see a bare patch of land, my eyes light up and I can hardly wait to create “shrubbery.”

Ancient people all over the world were interested in the stars and their movement

There I was, in 1972, looking for a job in aviation. I happened to see a cool place between D’Howard and Swearingen called Associated Page.

Before I get started on part two of my story, I want to thank the Kerr County Fair Association for a very well-run parade on Saturday, Oct. 24.
