  • Villages, sacred cow, and the sales tax

    Many years later, upon a time, the village was still trying to cross the threshold to greatness, but it continued to be thwarted by the educational bureaucracies of the village. They continued to fight like piglets over the villagers’ golden teat of sales tax money. Their budgets dwarf the minuscule budget that barely sustains the village. Decades of pillage of the villagers’ gold led to disintegration of roadways and structures.

  • Wellness challenge

    There is good news from my doctor. I am off my blood pressure medication! Because of the 28-Day Wellness Challenge, I have been encouraged to change my old eating and exercise habits, become more educated, have a plan for my personal health goals, and I can truthfully see and feel the difference as I go about my busy daily life.

  • OSSAA robbed players

    I am writing in support of the Sequoyah coaches, parents and individuals who may have contributed their money and efforts into getting some athletes to summer camps.

  • Focus on education

    When I became an educator more than 35 years ago, I had no idea the amount of joy and fulfillment it would bring to my life.

  • Supporting Sequoyah

    I just have a word or two to all of your people who have been whining because you lost your job at Sequoyah High School.

Poll

What do you think of Sen. McCain's proposal to allow cable TV channels to be sold a la carte (individually, rather than in bundles with a lot of channels no one wants)? Bear in mind some less popular channels could go by the wayside with no bundling support, and that while overall packages should theoretically decrease in cost, individual channels might cost more.

Strongly in favor of a la carte.
Somewhat in favor of a la carte.
Somewhat opposed to a la carte.
Strongly opposed to a la carte.
