Sometimes I hear my refrigerator doing its own maintenance at night.

We often assume that our estimates will be in the ballpark. But sometimes we are clueless.

Whether we read about the fictional Sherlock Holmes and his 19th-century opium addiction or the original formula for Coca-Cola (which contained small amounts of cocaine), drug use has created more than its share of miseries through the centuries.

Call the news what you will, but don’t call it “boring.” Fri, 05 Sep 2008 20:38:00 +0000 http://www.ktonline.com/columns/local_story_249203722.html http://www.ktonline.com/columns/local_story_249203722.html School has started, and fall is coming fast. I remember in my childhood how we looked forward to school starting so that we could reunite with friends who lived far enough away that Mom would not allow us to go visit them.
