Funny Papers Again Column | My Efforts to Outsmart Hercule — and Two Blasts From the Past

Steve Wilson
I am attempting to solve a mystery before a world-famous detective, once again, solves it. The task is not an easy one, but I feel I am up to it given my years of experience; reading experience, that is. I have for more years...

Worthy to Print Column | Let’s Go Truckin’

George Worthy
Did I ever tell you about my pickup? Oh, no need to reply. If I go one day without speaking about the ā€œGreen Machine,ā€ I start to get the shakes and Lorraine runs out of the room. Don’t get me wrong, she knew that...

Lucy Jensen
When you start the week at the early morning water aerobics class at the Soledad pool, you go out the gate like a champ, rising to greatness like the very light itself coming up. There is nearly nothing as life enhancing as watching the...

Funny Papers Again Column | KCHS Swag and Cringe: Kudos and Calamity

What? You don’t know the present use of the words ā€œswagā€ and ā€œcringeā€? Well, I didn’t either until I read it in context in an article in the newest issue of The Mustang Legacy, the King City High School student publication. At the present...
