"Your Voice That Bridges The Area Communities Together."
By Charlie Melton
One of my favorite shows has been cancelled. That in itself is normal. The CIA and Facebook have satellites trained on my house. They monitor my viewing habits and cancel any show I like. The junk I can’t stand is all that remains. That’s why the “Today” show and “The View” has been on for a hundred years. That’s why “Firefly,” “The Smothers Brothers,” and “Beanie and Cecil” are gone forever.

Wonder dog and consummate actor, Rin Tin Tin, the German Shepherd Dog, had 16 hit movies by the year 1927. The dog is credited with single handedly (pawedly?) saving Warner Studios from bankruptcy. Rin Tin Tin was the odds-on favorite to win the first “Best Actor” Academy Award.
Epiphany: A sudden realization, an intellectual breakthrough. Figuring something out after a long time of not trying to figure it out.

We’re like a lot of families that have a number of step-parents and step-grandparents and sort-of-cousins and others I don’t know how to define. As part of this family dynamic, the Grandson we’re raising has family in rural Missouri. He doesn’t know them, and I was afraid I was being negligent in exposing him to his roots. When we got a call from them out of the blue, I felt it was a sign that I needed to make things right.

In the name of diversity, stop the marginalization of barnyard fowl. Say no to the prejudice against the great chicken. Stop dividing us with the talk of “white or dark.” Welcome trans-cockerel, pro-pullet activism. Bring chickens to town!
