Carol Perkins: A week for Tv if you're interested in politics I have one ear on the liberals and one ear on the conservatives and frankly, I don't hear much of anything I thoroughly believe because I have become skeptical. I want to hear debates; unedited debates where candidates can't send out wrong information without being caught red-handed, immediately, with videotapes of misspoken words that might have been said in a tobacco patch in Kentucky. The media will find YOU if you run for office. -CAROL PERKINS The next earlier Carol Perkins column: Carol Perkins the movie critic: Hope Springs a must see By Carol Perkins Carol Perkins mainstreetscreenprinting@gmail.com This has been a week for TV if you are at all interested in politics. I am. I listen to the propaganda, the sound bites, and the stump standing from both the Democrats and Republicans and really ponder who the right candidate is for the most powerful job in the world. The running for the office has become a game. Perhaps symbolically much like the drama in "Hunger Games," the candidate who can survive the negative ads, the arrows of character assassination, and the beasts who spin words to shift focus from truths (whatever that may be) that might lead us Americans one way or another will be the last standing.

Judy Somerville shares stories from 31 year USPS career Judy Somerville has just retired after a great career with the United States Post office. It had some great highs, including a trailblazing accomplishment of being the first female career appointee in the history of the Columbia, KY 42728, post office. There were a lot of challenges, with daily hikes which could tire a Marine in basic training, and there was discouragement from a few male colleagues when she sought advancement. Still, there was plenty of encouragement, too, from great pals such as Kandi Stockton and George Rice. The last 16 years she's made the daily commute from Columbia to Marrowbone, KY 42759. On July 31, 2012, she retired, and with her name written again in USPS history as the last Postmaster for the Post Office Click on headline for story with photo(s) By Judy Somerville I Graduated from Campbellsville College with a bachelors in Elementary Education, then worked two years at Union Underwear in Campbellsville and substituted at Campbellsville Elementary School for two years, worked at K-mart for two years as a checkout supervisor.

Life in the Holler: A Sunday morning photo sermon Click on headline for introduction, photo album by Shamarie Claiborne Few photographers capture the range of pictures Shamarie Claiborne does, or match them to a mood. Mostly, it's an uncanny poetic ability to connect feelings which always connect, always state more eloquently what others feel but fail to record. Four pictures from the last of August are included in a series she calls, "How Can You Question God when there is beauty everywhere you look," in this Sunday morning photo sermon. 2012-09-02 04:47:13 | Comments | Printable version

Review first published 2 September 2007 in the Hart County Herald The next earlier Tom Chaney column :Tom Chaney: Just Like a Goose By Tom Chaney Shadows on the Wall I do not "do philosophy" as a friend of mine who "did" was fond of saying when telling folks what his occupation was. I'm not even a student of philosophy. At best I'm just a dabbler. Yet folks who follow that path have a great deal to tell us about ourselves and the nature of the world we inhabit.
