When the second World War ended in 1945, four Japanese soldiers who had been left on the Filipino island of Lubang refused to believe that the war was over. Even though the outside world tried to contact them by dropping leaflets, letters and photographs on the island, they thought that the Allied forces were just trying to trick them.And so they spent year after year huddling together in the jungle, living on bananas and mangoes.

Have they dealt with the adverse lying/scheming side of mankind for so long that their view of the average citizens has become so jaded that they attribute that jaded view to all individuals.

Heat kills dogs. If you have an outside dog, not only is it the law, it is humane to have shade. If you have a kennel, make sure that the entire top is covered by a tarp at least. A dog house doesn't give enough shade and actually can become very hot inside. When I kenneled dogs in the summer, not only did I cover the top, I had tarps on the side that the sun hit the most. Also make sure there is plenty of water and a fan doesn't hurt either.

Several months ago I was searching through the archives here at The Graphic trying to find some information for Lee Coppedge at Nashville Fire Department. While doing so, I began reading copies of some personal letters and newspaper clippings written by the founder of The Graphic, Maurice W. Lincke. The copies were sent to us by his granddaughter Chris Johnson.

New First Lady Melania Trump looks to be a different sort of First Lady. For starters, she's not moving into the White House, at least not initially. The President will move in, that's what is most important, but his wife plans to stay at Trump Tower and be about the business of raising son, Barron, all of ten years of age. Will the First Lady take up residence at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue next fall when her son's new school year begins?

First came the wobble. Then the thunder. Then there was a drainage problem. This wasn’t about a trip out for Indian food. It was much more ominous.It is amazing the truths about life you can find in metal/hair band lyrics from the 1980s. For example, one local columnist may or may not have once owned a CD produced by Cinderella that included the hit, “You Don’t Know What You Got Till It’s Gone.”

The North Carolina House of Representatives plans to pass a budget today that reduces the Nash-Rocky Mount Schools (NRMS) workforce, cutting $4 million — $485,000 more than Governor Bev Perdue’s proposed budget. Although this would mean a loss of only 21 NRMS special program teacher positions, 109 other instructional support and staff would be cut.

And the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end."

After years of making fun of the people who make, star in and watch Reality TV Shows — which are not very real — I have decided to change my stance.
That is because I have seen how Reality TV can benefit me. Therefore, it is okay for me to make what others might call a "hypocritical" decision. Politicians and pro athletes do it every week.

NASHVILLE - It looked like a cross between an Easter Egg Hunt and Hide and Seek: but instead of children, the "hunters" were Nashville firefighters, using radio frequency receivers to hone in on what Chris Jenkins, Deputy Fire Marshal, had hidden in, on, or under equipment stored behind the Nashville Fire Department. Unlike Easter Eggs, the small transmitters were not brightly-colored, or edible, but were designed to carry a real life "prize": finding one could be a difference between life and death.
