Pete Vuckovich is from our area and the baseball field at Conemaugh Valley is named for him. It was always fun to quote Major League when we played there. Most of the kids in the area who play baseball have met him at different functions, really nice guy....

It does seem like the number of young people getting cancer is going up and there are numbers to support that. With that being said social media really amplifies how much you see about it. I’ll see a Facebook post from someone I haven’t talked to since college and they have a go fund me for a person...

That’s a pretty broad generalization. I know plenty of women with no kids who seem very fulfilled and happy and I know women with kids who’re miserable. Why can’t people just live their lives the way they see fit. We all have to live with our decisions, at the end of the day we all need to do what’s...

I can't speak for the parallels between 1776 and 2024, because they're not exactly the same scenarios. However, I can tell you that after the Revolution the American people had such little faith in the national currency that many states issued their own money. As you can imagine that led to a lot ...

Not problem, glad to help!...

In a way it did, the American war effort was at a pretty low point at the end of 1776. Washington had been routed on Long Island and all the way up Manhattan Island and chased across Jersey to PA. The army was melting away and a lot of enlistments were up on 1/1/1777. He needed to do something to...

[quote]It will be interesting. How many fans of weaker teams/conferences will still watch socalled college football. Will younger fans of ACC teams continue to be football fans when their teams are not eligible for championships.[/quote] I think this is already happening in a way. I'm a WVU fa...
