I am Cullen, a neutered male, about one year old, Heeler Aussie mix.  I am on the small side probably under 40 lbs.  I have a medium length coat, I am housebroken and I get along with other dogs.  I came in to this place as a stray.  I am a little slow to make up to people, but the …

One doesn’t need to look far to be subjected to some form of loud noise, whether it’s a car needing a new muffler or the delightful sound of children yelling at each other in excitement, hopefully outdoors. The younger set likes to have their music cranked up to 5000 decibels. Attending a rock concert just isn’t the same unless you’re …

We are now well into the 2018 football season. This means that Sunday evening television programming will be slightly changed, as will Monday and Thursday evenings. One of the things that bothers me about watching anything on television are the stupid commercials. It seems to me that there are more commercials during a football game than any other time. Sometime …

In 1985, I was trained and finally certified as a Rescue Diver. I haven’t done any diving since then because I had relocated and didn’t have anyone to share my SCUBA diving interests. Several weeks ago, I got the bug to possibly get back into the sport. I made arrangements to get checked out by an instructor to see if …

Public restrooms are just that. They are for the public. I applaud businesses who provide a room where patrons can go “Rest”. It’s the responsibility of the business owner to maintain that room of rest, but I feel the public should share in some of that responsibility. I’m not saying we should scrub the toilet or mop the floor, but …

Hi, I’m Peggy Sue, a female ginger and white pit mix. I’m about 1-1/2 years old and am very friendly. I have an old injury to my rear leg that doesn’t let me bend it. But, believe me, it does not slow me down AT ALL! I love to play and have a lot of energy. I am very sweet …

School used to start the day after Labor Day, but as far as when the school bell rings this year will depend on where you live. School has already started in parts of Indiana and Illinois. No matter when school starts for your children, it’s not too late to shop for those back-to-school clothes and supplies. The Stone House, located …
