Carol Perkins: Guy trusts his GPS There's a very important moral in this story, a truth about the difference in frenetic city life with its terribly slow pace of actual fulfillment, put as only Carol Perkins can: 'On the way home the next day, I thought about how hectic city life is. At home, I zip to the grocery store, to the post office, to work, to a restaurant, or to my mother's in minutes. In the city, nothing takes minutes. I may not know road numbers, but I know where so and so lives and I know where to turn to get where I want to go. That's all the GPS I need. -CAROL PERKINS By Carol Perkins Guy trusts his GPS. "It has never been wrong." That is what he assured me when I doubted its wisdom when he programmed it to a location in downtown Nashville. My plan was to arrive at eleven o'clock, and knowing it takes a little over two hours for the trip, I planned to leave around eight thirty. At seven, I was sipping my coffee while Guy was setting the GPS in my car. Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2011-10-30 11:11:26 | Comments | Printable version

Thanks to MellaDee and Beverly for being there for young people Richard Raines writes: How fitting that Mella Dee Allen and Beverly Rowe were on the field along with Kathy Hadley for presentation of plaque!! Mella Dee became a "mother hen" to hundreds of kids who came through the Adair Co Band program while (her husband) Tim was band director at Adair Co., and it wasn't (and still isn't often now that Tim is director of the LWC band) that if you see Mella Dee at a band function that you don't see her employee and friend Beverly close by. Thanks to both of them for being there for all those young people over the years!! - RICHARD RAINESComments re photo 42464 Plaque dedicated to memory of Field Commander Hillary Hadley 2011-10-30 09:26:49 | Comments | Printable version
Rev. Joey N. Welsh: Of Spooks and Saints Another Angle, the occasional musings of a Kentucky Pastor: Of Spooks and Saints. first printed 30 October 2005 in the Hart County Herald The next earlier Another Angle: Rev. Joey N. Welsh: An Important National Symbol By The Rev. Joey N. Welsh Halloween has never been one of my favorite times of the year. I have often thought that the store decorations featuring spooks, goblins, and candy, all coming to a finale at the end of October, robbed a lot of the energy from my favorite fall occasion a few scant weeks later, Thanksgiving Day. I have also wondered if the decor of the season sometimes encourages very small children to have unnecessary fears. I do admit that my childhood experiences with Halloween were fun, and I have nothing but happy memories of parties at school and trick-or-treating.
