What do Oreo cookies and psychoactive drugs have in common? Evidently, they are both highly addictive.

So many questions were attached to Mingus Union’s cross country debacle, and the most pressing is, “Has anybody learned a thing?”

There is nothing quite like stormy weather to get us in a tidying up mood. January is the perfect time to de-clutter! Out with all the “stuff” we never use, wear or even like.

Every January, we spend a lot of time rehashing events, accomplishments and failures of the previous year. We prognosticate what will be coming at us in the new year, predicting bear or bull markets (looking very grizzly at the moment), what the ramifications of the past election will be, who will win the sports trophies and what The Old Farmer’s Almanac (still a thing and pretty accurate) says about the long-range weather.

Football. Once again it is that time of year when we Americans obsess over who will make it to the Super Bowl. The fate of our beloved Cardinals has been decided as they got crushed by San Francisco.
