STANEK COLUMN: Your vote always matters

For far too long, people seemed to care about only the fall Presidential Election.

Nature and Society: Cocoon

I miss cocoons. When I was a kid in Chicago, every winter we would go on cocoon walks. We would find the cocoons of the giant silk moths, the Polyphemus and Cecropia moths with a wing span of five or six inches. We would find them in bushes and shrubs and trees. We would bring them home and keep them in a large cage on the porch.

STANEK COLUMN: Hallelujah! It’s raining…dirt?

If you own a vehicle and went outside this past weekend, you may have noticed brown drops everywhere.

No, a farmer didn’t go crazy with a manure spreader, and, no, a Hershey factory didn’t explode. Trust me, if they had, it would be on the front page of this week’s paper.

Senator Chuck Schumer is smart, but so many other Democrats are clueless. President Donald Trump wants to be a dictator. What better way to be a dictator than shut down the government and declare Martial Law?

Letter: Analyzing God’s Word

I am an atheist who has often recommended Christians to read the Bible. Read all of the Bible, beginning at the first page and proceeding to the end. Most people who call themselves Christians have not read the entire Bible; in fact, many Christians have read hardly any of it except for some parts recommended by their Pastor.

Letter: Jobs Americans used to do

Hollie Claflin's Feb. 27 Wisconsin Watch essay dealing with the 70,000 illegal aliens living and working in this state ignores the critical fact that the majority of the jobs in the industries she cites already are being done by Americans, according to the Center for Immigration Studies.

Letter: Is this the legacy you want?

Wisconsinites face a reckoning on the April 1 general election. If Judge Brad Schimel is elected, our liberal Supreme Court majority’s headlong plunge to transform Wisconsin into a midwestern California can be thwarted.
