Be Careful What You Shoot


Read in my local paper this morning:

Don Keating of the Eastern Ohio Bigfoot Investigation Center is asking deer hunters to be on the lookout for anything out of the ordinary. Specifically, anything 6- to 9-feet tall, bipedal and covered with dark hair. More specifically – Sasquatch, better known as Bigfoot. Keating is hoping that deer hunters somewhere in Ohio spot the elusive Bigfoot and report it to him but urges them to not shoot if they spot it.

Maybe it's the weather. It isn't even November yet, and already we've had frost and have had to dust off our winter coats. When it gets cold like this, I start to think about Christmasy things like listening to Nat King Cole and decorating the tree. It's ironic because I am offended when retailers start pushing holiday stuff early, but I don't mind my own private celebrations. When my sister and I were much younger and still living with our parents, we would pick a day in July, close the curtains to darken the ...

The Ultimate Storyteller—in Life AND in Death

I wrote about The Autobiography of Mark Twain in yesterday's edition of Small Town Newspaper. You can read it here , if you want. This is the photograph I had in mind while I read Clemens' dictations. He really was a masterful storyteller, even when rambling on about the poorly designed door knobs in Florence or in describing the Countess Massiglia, who he described as a "pestiferous character." About her, he said, “She is excitable, malicious, malignant, vengeful, unforgiving, selfish, stingy, avaricious, coarse, vulgar, profane, obscene, a furious blusterer on the outside and at heart a coward.” And I laughed out loud.
