Driving is driving me crazy - Rob Felt

Our government's system for granting the privilege of driving to citizens is a bloated and inefficient mess. It would take a team of excavators countless years to remove the puss that festers in the boil of our DMV, traffic courts and insurance regulators.

Allow me to explain, please - Ed Brock

Failing at simple arithmetic - R.H. Joseph

Is it any wonder American students lag behind young people throughout much of the industrialized world in science and mathematics? Their parents are unable to put 2 and 2 together.

Our candidate will get your wash cleaner - Bob Paslay

I was driving down the road the other day and on the radio comes this commercial for this super-duper miracle diet plan. This woman is recounting her life story, about how as a kid she was picked on and kidded because she was fat.

I applaud Hollywood's efforts, and not because I love the suits and neckties that run the studios, but because I respect the art form and its intended form of exhibition.

Remembering the ?classics' as a child - Kathy Jefcoats

The classic television network has brought the comic genius to its line-up of nostalgic viewing and making me happy in the process.
