[February 24, 2024] Growing up, we kids never channel surfed on our television set. There was only one clear channel. Plus, we rarely watched television because our Dad set strict limits.

[February 23, 2024] I woke up in a sweat, my heart pumping and my mouth dry. It was the same dream I’d had since I was a little kid and before I could remember my dreams.

[February 15, 2024] Fanny slammed on the brakes of the School Bus she was driving, and then, as she stood up, she turned around and yelled at us, mostly Junior High School kids from Bastrop. “Shut up with that racket.

[February 11, 2024] Occasionally, you hear about our World War II heroes. Still, you never hear of them coming home from the battlefield and integrating themselves back into their hometowns, opening a business, marrying and having children, and being a pillar of their community.
