Suggests packaging for Ski shipments to Iraq About: Reader suggests organizing Ski shipments to Iraq To ColumbiaMagazine.com: If I might make a suggestion : If you do send Ski, or any other canned soft drink, you might want to put each can in a Ziplock plastic bag. The boxes get bounced around quite a bit between here and there and it only takes one tiny hole in a can to cover the contents of the box. That can potentially soften the box and possibly cause it to tear. Not only that, but we found out the hard way that humans are not the only creatures fond of Ski. I failed to put a can in a plastic bag and that package arrived in Iraq full of ants! I found that the sandwich size Zip bags work nicely for this purpose and the Glad brand it just slightly larger, so it's a little easier to get the cans in. s/Melissa Taylor 2009-08-30 13:13:31 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

This Place Matters suggested project for CM readers To ColumbiaMagazine.com: I found this interesting: "This Place Matters" at the National Trust for Historic Preservation website. Download and print out a sign that reads "This Place Matters", and pose with it in front of a place that matters to you. It seems to be a campaign sponsored by the National Trust for Historic Preservation and flickr.com. I read about this in "Country Living" magazine (May 2009). This might be a fun project for CM readers. Just print out the sign (or make a homemade one) and stand in front of a building or site that matters to them...and, of course, send the photo to CM!

Chuck Hinman IJMA No. 172: Depression Days It's Just Me Again No. 172:Depression Days The next earlier Chuck Hinman story is My Dad, Arley Hinman Reader comments to CM are appreciated, as are emails directly to Mr. Hinman at: charles.hinman@sbcglobal.net By Chuck Hinman Depression Days I was a seven year old Nebraska farm boy when the stock market crashed in 1929. It set off the Great Depression that severely disrupted the lives of most every one in the United States. It hit people where it hurt -- in their pocketbooks! Following the stock market crash, there was widespread closing of banks. People lost all their savings in those banks. The Blue Springs (Nebraska) State Bank where my parents (Arley and Merle Hinman) banked stayed solvent through the depression. The bank was run by Floyd Patton and Arthur Krauss, long-time friends and classmates of my parents. Other banks in Gage County, Nebraska were not so fortunate.

The Epicurean Kentuckian: Real Biscuits "Real biscuits should be sturdy enough to hold lots of apple butter, and just smaller in diameter than a slice of ripe tomato, and just dry enough to handle the juices from said tomato, which, when paired with a slice of country ham on said biscuit, will become the Most Delicious Sandwich in the Universe," Pen writes.
