Film Review: Frankenstein
"Frankenstein" is nominated for multiple Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Supporting Actor for Jacobi Elordi's portrayal of the Creature. "Frankenstein" is currently streaming on Netflix. After three sit downs, I finished Guillermo Del Toro's "Frankenstein" yesterday. Let’s discuss. Right off the bat, I loved it. It was melodramatic in all the right ways. The movie looked beautiful. I wish I had seen it on the big screen, but my television at home was just fine.

Loveland’s Valentine Ladies: The History of a Beloved Local Tradition
A Valentine Lady is a woman who has distinguished herself by her commitment and involvement in the community, and like a Marine … once a Valentine Lady, ALWAYS a Valentine Lady. The Loveland Valentine Lady tradition began in 1972, when Dr. Roland Boike introduced the idea & coined the phrase “There is nothing in this world so sweet as love.” His secretary, Doris Pfiester, volunteered to stamp all cards, which Doris did until 1988 when her daughter, Ruth, took over the stampi

The Space Shuttle Challenger and Confronting My Mortality
Forty years ago today was the first time I had to confront my own eventual death. I was only ten at the time, and I was on my way to the hospital. There was something going on with my health, and not a single doctor had been able to figure out the problem. My legs were feeling heavy and tired, there was blood in my urine, and in addition to the physical symptoms there were visible red dots showing up on my legs. Every day I would get a few new red dots, and my parents would t

Film Review: Sinners
"Sinners" just broke the record for Oscar nominations with 16 including nods for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actor in a Supporting Role, and Best Actress in a Supporting Role. "Sinners" is currently streaming on HBO Max I loved everything about "Sinners". The movie was stylish and cool.

The Timeless Joy of a Snow Day
A big snowfall like the one we are living through right now creates plenty of work and headaches for many in the community. But looking through a different lens, there are really few experiences so timeless and so joyful as a good snow day! Maybe it’s the rarity, since it’s only a few times a year we get enough snow to go sledding or get a day off school and work. Maybe it’s the timeless fun of heading downhill on a sled or building a snowman or snow fort. I can think of few

The Friday Listen: “Heaven Help Us All”
by Mike Meldon The Friday Listen is a simple, weekly reflection on music that’s been sticking with me — songs worth sitting with, revisiting, or hearing a little more closely. This week’s pick isn’t new. But it feels necessary . A Song That Still Speaks Stevie Wonder’s “Heaven Help Us All” feels less like entertainment and more like a plea — a moment of collective honesty spoken out loud. Just this week, for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day , I shared his reminder that people
