To the editor: 
Today is Nov. 26. It is nine months since my son and best friend passed away. 
My son is Anthony Gaylord DiCarlantonio. It was his 36th birthday. 
It is pain I would not wish on anybody. 
As anyone who knows me (and my Anthony) knows, I am a huge Big Red fan. We just ...

Merry Christmas to all active military, veterans, first responders and all MAGA supporters. 
It’s just 864 hours from Sunday before the Democratic four-year plague on America is exterminated, but who’s counting? 
Stop the presses: Joe Biden lies again. 
He spouted no ...
                        
                    
                    	                                    
                    
                                                                        
                        
                        To the editor: 
It sadly appears obvious that President-elect Donald J. Trump constantly exaggerates what he perceives to be of a positive nature regarding  every aspect of his persona, as well as what he perceives as his personal achievements. An example of his outlandish self-aggrandizement ...
                        
                    
                    	                                        
                                        
                    
                                                                        
                        
                        I am writing this as a reply to the guest editorial by William Welker, “Education vs. profession majors and lifetime earnings.” As noted in the title of my reply, has made a few errors. I hope to offer a clarification to your readers.

                        ‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through the state,  
Corrupt politicians were filling their plates. 
Their stockings were hung in the state house with care, 
In hopes that lobbying money would find its way there. 
Republicans had gerrymandered state districts once again, ...
                        
                    
                    	                                    
                    
                                                                        
                        
                        Today is my mother’s birthday. 
Now, to all of you who may be reading this sentence, that probably doesn’t mean a thing.

Most of us know the importance of having a mom. 
They are the ones who brought us into this world.
