The wisdom of learning from others
To the editor,
Fellow humans who are involved with alcohol: I am aware that for most of you, my attempts to get you to quit drinking are unwelcome.

Sadly, it’s plunging toward disaster. In order to fix it we need to look at all the things that are going wrong.Most news outlets and the pundits they quote have only been focusing on one problem: low oil and gas prices.
If we’re going to be successful in fixing this thing before it crashes and burns, we need to look at the other failing pieces. Namely, that the state hasn’t been collecting enough...
Madame G guide to the starsWEEK OF AUG. 12 – 18
According to the Farmer’s Almanac, Native Americans of the San Ildefonso Pueblo call the August full moon, the Wheat Cut Moon. This will appear on Aug. 18. Expect the fruits of your labors to be healthy and strong. Madame G suggests that you search for excellence rather than perfection. One is attainable. The other leads to heartburn and neurosis.
