The good old days. The only violence I can recall in high school was one night outside the gym after a basketball game when Robert Strohmeyer beat the stuffing out of some kid from East Moline. Unkind words had probably been exchanged. I don’t remember who won. The game, that is. So what’s changed since the “50s? Is it the all-pervasive media which ferrets out and keeps us informed about every murder/suicide, implying that it’s a trend? Is our mental health system pretty much a joke? In the U.S. ...Origi...

I didn’t write this, but loved it. Is important for men to remember that, as women grow older, it becomes harder for them to maintain the same quality of housekeeping as when they were younger. When you notice this, try not to yell at them. Some are oversensitive, and there’s nothing worse than an oversensitive woman. John died suddenly on January 31 of strangulation.

The man said, “…outrageous.”. When you have to go to the hospital, you most likely do not have an opportunity to ask what “things” are going to cost, you just let the medical staff take over and hope your insurance, if you have any, is going to cover everything. And the cost of some of the “things” on your bill over which you have no say? The article describes them as “outrageous” and “egregious.” How about: $77 for a box of sterile gauze pads? Medical care in the U.S. amounts to 20% ($2.8 tr...

Graduation is over and now the kids can start to use all the knowledge their teachers have so painstakingly forced into their eager, meager brains. Why, I can remember all kinds of stuff from back way back when I was in school. And I can’t emphasize enough how clearly I remember it and how valuable it has been as I progressed through life. In my day, if you even thought about going to go to college, Latin was more or less mandatory. And what do I remember from high school Latin? English was my best subje...

Mishaps in the Mile High City. I would have been perfectly content just sitting in my recliner watching Judge Judy. But no, the Mrs. always has some kind of a burr under her saddle so that we have to travel all over the country visiting relatives and enduring unimaginable hardships and mishaps.
