Carol Perkins: Playing in the Band Membership in the Marching was special. Band appearances were memorable, but none still holds more emotional memories than the parade march through Livingston, TN, in 'uniforms' which didn't draw the response expected.-CM To read her next previous story click on "To Tan or Not to Tan" By Carol Perkins PLAYING IN THE BAND When I was in elementary school, I joined the band, along with my friends. We had no uniforms and not many instruments. Those of us who wanted to play had to find horns the best way we could, which meant used ones from music stores, pawn shops or in the attics of our relatives. I played the clarinet. I didn't play it well. In fact, because we didn't have enough music, I played off music for a trumpet. I must have been good at transposing since the notes were different. In truth, I must have been a genius since I barely could read music.

Tom Chaney: Book review #201: Jesus Interrupted Of Writers And Their Books: Tom Chaney Book review #201 of Jesus Interrupted: Revealing the Hidden Contradictions in the Bible (and Why We Don't Know About Them), by Bart D. Ehrman Last week's Tom Chaney review: The Queen's Mare by Louisville, KY writer John Birkett. By Tom Chaney bookstore@scrtc.com Reading Jesus Last Sunday we began the annual ceremonies of holy week -- the events at the very center of the Christian year and at the heart of its message. The gospels tell of the progress of Jesus into Jerusalem on what we now call Palm Sunday up through the final meal with his followers on Thursday evening followed by the dark night of denial and betrayal in Gethsemane. The week culminates on Friday with his trial, crucifixion, and burial.

Rev. Joey N. Welsh: Small town virtues ANOTHER ANGLE: the occasional musings of a Kentucky pastor. This column originally appeared in November 2005, in the Munfordville, KY, Hart County Herald and is reprinted here with the permission of the author. It was printed for Thanksgiving, 2007, but seems just appropriate for today, Easter Sunday, April 12, 2009.-EW By The Rev. Joey N.

We shared a number of insights and images, recalling circumstances that simply dont occur in big cities.

CHUCK HINMAN: Time changes things IT'S JUST ME AGAIN, Chuck Hinman #120, Time Changes Things The next earlier Chuck Hinman story is "Pills, Pills, Pills" Reader comments to CM are appreciated, as are emails directly to Mr. Hinman at: charles.hinman @sbcglobal.net By Chuck Hinman Time Changes Things Man, you can say that again, especially if you have been around for 85 years like I have. For example, how many of your great grandchildren are home from school for 2 weeks (or more) with the measles; or who of those kids are quarantined along with their families with the highly contagious smallpox, mumps or chickenpox. I would guess the answer is "not one"!

Great Wooded South III: The biggest fish story ever Discussing other fish stories 'as a prelude to the following story would be like lamenting a spring shower after surviving a hurricane,' writer says. Click for the next previous Great Wooded South, "Potato Chip Bag Ball" By Billy Joe Fudge I know many of you who live in or near the Great Wooded South are somewhat aware of the laborious and varied research that takes place in the many institutions located there. The research conducted there spans the gambit of scientific endeavor and linguistic undertaking. No gratuity is desired but if given the opportunity you might just give a "pat on the back" or "a word of encouragement" to all those who labor endlessly in the world of research in the Great Wooded South.

Letter: People who throw trash out; excessive speed in town About: "Adair Countians live in a beautiful place in the world" To ColumbiaMagazine.com: It is very sad to see how so many people throw trash out of their vehicles and the rest of us are left with their garbage. I guess we have almost gotten used to seeing this out on back country roads but we were not prepared for what happens right in Columbia itself. People who are stopping at a stop sign, bicyling (yes, it's true) and even walking down Burkesville street and/or Guardian Street seem to feel no shame in discarding wrappers, cans, boxes, etc. on the street. I can't imagine how anyone could do that but it happens almost every day. I don't know what the answer is, just like I don''t understand the high rate of speeding by vehicles on Burkesville Street that is permitted to go on all the time. I just don't get it. s/Donna Saunders Columbia, KY 2009-04-12 04:10:07 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
