Funny Papers Again Column | The Twelfth Month and Its Celebrations Around the World

Steve Wilson
For those who do not recall Funny Papers Again of two weeks ago, it was about Christmas and so I had done some research about December celebrations, but due to word allotment it was omitted because I went on, some would say, on and...

Funny Papers Again Column | Can We Consider a Conscientious Crossing Consensus?

As I venture out mornings for a bike ride ā€˜round some favored routes, it is apparent that the young denizens of the village are headed to their respective campuses as schools are now up and running full tilt boogie. It goes without saying that...

Funny Papers Again Column | When Mr. Kant and Mr. Lobo Met at a Bus Stop

Steve Wilson
It took me forever to get a college degree. Really. It was nearly 30 years and over 330 miles apart — from September of 1970 when I enrolled as a drama major at Hartnell in Salinas until March of 2000 before I got an...

Worthy to Print Column | Thankful for the Legion

If anyone knows me, they know that I am a veteran of the U.S. Army. I am proud to tell anyone that asks. I also suffer from PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). I am one of the lucky ones. I found someone who understands...

Worthy to Print Column: I had an epiphany
