Hopkins County Teen Court
Hopkins County Teen Court is an event to behold. Phrases like “If it pleases the court” and “No further questions your Honor” are used and used well. A trial, complete with a twelve member jury, takes place each month. Judge and Bailiffs aside, teens makeup the entire court. Both sides even interview potential jury members, and in turn strike potentials for various reasons. At a basic level, Teen Court...
Ring that Dinner Bell
I finally made it to the Dinner Bell. I must admit I was a little apprehensive. Anyone who views me from the side will attest to my lack of need in the food department. I was scared it would be awkward for a well fed man like myself to partake. First United Methodist Church welcomes all. There was nothing to be afraid of. All demographics and probably every religion known to man can be found serving or being served. They ring the...

Listen up Scammers!
I have developed a sort of relationship with a group of credit card thieves over the past year or so. I have long ago given up con blocking their numbers, now I try to take their calls. I figure if I can keep them on the line for 5 minutes, that keeps them from reaching someone susceptible. It goes without saying, don’t try this at home. If you suspect credit card fraud contact the Federal Trade Commission. They have the...

Grab Your Rewards Card; A Starbucks Update
Flying a white flag and declaring myself a member of the media (no comments please…) I slipped into the new Starbucks in Sulphur Springs. I was able to speak briefly with a district manager. A tentative opening date slated for… get ready for it…. Early February 2017. Although there are a few expected minor items to work on, the structure is ready. The delay at this moment is the first delivery of stock. [poll...

Swipe Back at Traffic
The Darth Vader of lunch hours… traffic delays steal from us each time we leave the home. Time spent in the car does not need be wasted. Some drivers attempt to remove ear wax, brush hair, trim nose hair, or simply conduct business conferences. Who hasn’t experienced the dreaded ‘front seat arm’ flailing back to subdue rowdy children. Obviously state law prohibits all distracted driving. What is a commuter...
