Hunting, fishing bring to mind keen memory

My lifestyle has greatly changed in the last five weeks. I had spinal surgery on the last day of March. Lots of pain. Recovery is slow. No fishing, no turkey hunting, no bike riding, no long hikes. No nothing! Just a prisoner IN my house, simply chained to my chair. My wife Beth has been a great nurse helping me. But she is the Gestapo when it comes to me doing too much too soon!

Does IRS want you?

In its infinite wisdom – or lack thereof – Congress recently gave the U.S. Internal Revenue Service $80 billion in new funding as part of the Inflation Reduction Act before the agency had a plan for spending it.

“You also get more of an idea of how much [Calpurnia’s] been a surrogate mother to Jem and Scout. Scout was only two when their mother passed,” Jacqueline Williams said.

‘To Kill A Mockingbird’ opens May 9 at Bass Concert Hall

The Broadway adaptation of “To Kill A Mockingbird” simultaneously honors and updates Harper Lee’s classic American novel about justice and racism in the South. Aaron Sorkin’s adaptation of the story follows the familiar original narrative, but utilizes Scout’s youthful inquisitiveness to ask the important questions about the society in which they live. As Sorkin said in an interview in The Atlantic, the characters are “not getting repainted. We’re just taking another look, given the times we’re living in.”
