Window on the World Column | NashVegas

Lucy Jensen
Ever since my sister passed, my daughter and I have been wont to follow her lead and give each other experiences instead of merchandise for special occasions. I was so delighted when the kid gave me concert tickets for Christmas. I love concerts, I...

Worthy to Print Column | Our 50th State

George Worthy
This morning when I woke up I was feeling pretty good, all things being equal. For some reason as I lay there I kept remembering Lorraine’s father coming by my apartment and picking me up so I could help him clean a couple ofĀ ...

Worthy to Print Column: License laws

It looks like we may get a few reprieves from our SIP (shelter in place). Since March 17 we have had to wear masks, stay in the house and not congregate. Walking on the beach or even in your own neighborhood has had severe...

Funny Papers Again Column | From Loop to Loop: Roads We Once Drove

Funny how the mind works. Today I was blankly sitting in front of my laptop with no idea what to write about, tuned to KCBX, the local NPR radio station, when a report from Chicago mentioned the famous circular downtown roadway known as the...

Window on the World Column | No Doubting the Universe

ā€œNo doubt the universe will unfold as it should,ā€ I tell my husband (sort of citing my favorite poem ā€œDesiderataā€). This was after we returned home from our neighbor’s place up the hill. Most times you go to neighboring homes and receive tomatoes or...
