  • MUG-quillon,robin.jpeg Family unit is not complete without a father

    In today’s society, and to its detriment, more and more fathers are being viewed as an optional part of the family unit. But in reality, as the father goes, so goes the family.
    Seldom, if ever, do I give much credence to what celebrities think or say.
    Most of them don’t live anywhere near the real world you and I live in, and, most of the time, they pontificate on things for which they have absolutely zero experience.

  • Whatever happened to that quaint relic called civility?

    CAN WE BE candid here? Can we just say this plainly?
    The public is a bunch of rude, obnoxious jerks.
    OK, so I overstate. A little. Yes, there are exceptions. I’m not such a bad guy and you, of course, are a paragon of civility. But the rest of them? A cavalcade of boors, boobs, bums, bozos, and troglodytes.

  • Taylor Armerding Government’s action is the ‘obesity’ problem

    You will be shocked--shocked--to hear that we have an obesity problem in America.
    You needed the government to tell you, since you never would have noticed by walking down the street, going to a ball game, hanging out in a bar or going shopping.
    Obesity is, uh, growing, according to the federal Centers for Disease Control...

  • MUG-olszak, mitchel.jpg When idiocy sets the tone of public policy

    I don’t spend much time watching those 24-hour news channels.
    That’s because they don’t have enough real news to fill the air time. So they either resort to repetition or punditry as filler.
    I spend even less time reading political blogs on the Internet. Most of the material is stolen from other sources. And this particular breed of blogger tends to see the entire world through some sort of ideological prism.

  • Councilman: ‘Get the facts’ about possible SR merger

    A number of recent newspaper articles and a June 2010 letter distributed to Slippery Rock Township residents from Slippery Rock Township supervisors cite opinion regarding several community issues. Since I am mentioned in the letter and a number of the articles. I feel compelled to respond to the Slippery Rock merger/consolidation issue since space limits a response to all issues.

  • MUG-horton,joseph.jpg The thin culture: Hoping for good news from Cathy

    My favorite section of the paper is still the comics. Lately I have been reading what seems to have become an annual theme in the “Cathy” comic strip. Not only can Cathy not find a suitable bathing suit, she is repulsed by the sight of her body in the suits she tries on. Cathy’s obsession with her outward appearance often keeps her from enjoying life. This otherwise successful person suffers from insecurity and low self-esteem because she is not thin.
