Window on the World Column | Tucker the Wonder Dog

Lucy Jensen
I first saw him in the back pages of the Auto Shopper — yes, a car magazine. If you are an animal lover, you just cannot help yourself. You are always looking for the animals, whether or not you can actually accommodate said animals,...

Window on the World Column | The Grave Digger

Lucy Jensen
It is our family custom, after the passing of a loved one, that we gather together and celebrate the life of that person. Whether it be in church or not, this ceremony of sorts provides closure, for want of a better word. The breaking...

Window on the World Column | The Chaos That Can Be Christmas

I recall so clearly the simplicity of the holidays when we were young. We would show up and be fed and presented with presents, as it were. (Occasionally I would help Mum with the wrapping, but that was about the extent of my responsibilities.)...

Worthy to Print Column | Early Days…

Funny Papers Again Column | Travels With Buddy — Part I

In a rare case of a column running too long, I offer this story as a two-parter… One day I came home from school, it was 1964 and I was in the sixth grade in Greenfield Elementary School, and my father handed me a book...

Worthy to Print Column | Make the Most of Your Regrets

Regrets? I’ve had a few. Old blue eyes, Frank Sinatra, sure knew how to say it better than me, but then he got to live his life ā€œMy Way.ā€ I have done a lot of things in my life. I got to thinking about...

Letter to the Editor: American Tradition Under Attack

To the Editor: For many years I made my living as a street cop, trying to distinguish fact from fiction. And for Americans, one indisputable fact is, without the National Rifle Association you would not be able to own a firearm. As of 1967, the NRA...
