Wanda Jennings always sends us a Halloween cake to commemorate our anniversary – the 43rd this year. We share it with the office, of course. Mary said this cake was as good as the icing. Thank goodness Wanda doesn’t put candles on it. With the fire department’s new 1,500 gal. per minute pumper, the stream

I, for one, am glad that the $2,500 a week for life sweepstakes is about to be awarded. I haven’t spent one red cent on any of the stuff they advertise, but my inbox keeps getting full. I worked my way through about 350 emails last night occasionally finding one that needed to go in

I was editing an obituary Monday when all of a sudden, I realized who it was. I always knew her as Sue Huff Brown. I had never known her to be called Margaret Suzanna Huff Brown. When I was just a little kid, she lived with her parents, George and Clara Huff, about 3⁄4 of

Andy Graves about ruined my lunch last Thursday when he told us that Russ Hayes had passed away that morning. No, I hadn’t heard about the wreck Wednesday morning. It upset me. I liked Russ. He was too nice a guy to have something like that happen. I’d sort of bonded with him after what

When I sat down for our chat, my computer balked – wouldn’t type anything. I hollered for Gwen who works a lot in MS Word, but Davis was closer. He tried several of his tricks (the younger generation is tricky) and when nothing else worked, advised me to run permissions. I had forgotten that I

As I was leaving an eating place well after noon Tuesday, I thought I recognized a guy who had just driven up in a pickup and got out. Then I recognized the lady with him for sure – Joan Walker. It was her youngest, Richard, who had been driving her pickup. His sunglasses had partially

At lunch the other day, some of the guys were talking about passport photos the many people may need soon with changes in the ID law. I’ve been doing passport photos for maybe 30 years. Make an appointment with me. $15. Quick turn around. My trip to the goal line a long time before the

Remember when I told you that three big things happened during the Picnic and I only told you two of them? Well, I can tell you the third one now. I’ve forgotten what the first two were in the excitement over this one. Davis, Erica and Ben kidnapped Adrian and Van after they picked them
