Godspeed Tom Tepe, 1945-2021
Sunday, October 17, 2021 7:50 PM
St. Peter has opened the gates for Thomas Tepe, there can be no doubt. Let the philosophical debates begin! I will miss my friend. I will miss his calls and our fish sandwich wagers on the World Series, the Super Bowl and NCAA sports. Mostly, I will miss my friend, Topper. Pam and I love you. Godspeed.

  • School boards, politics strange bedfellows

    Thursday, October 14, 2021 8:02 PM
    Ask former Marine, former Ohio treasurer and current U.S. Senate candidate Josh Mandel if school boards are nonpartisan. In southwest Ohio this week, Mandel was asked to leave the Lakota school board meeting after he attempted to speak to the board to defend parents regarding the district's mask mandate.

  • As always, we get the government we deserve

    Sunday, October 10, 2021 5:25 AM
    H.L. Mencken, the greatest newspaperman (present company excluded!) from the city of my humble beginning, once wrote that since elections produced such dreadful results, citizens should stop wasting their time voting and simply pick their representatives at random from the phone book. He may have been onto something.

    More than one of our always appreciated Alert Readers brought it to my attention that last week's HCP print edition failed to include my usual column on Page 4. You'll have that. After publishing roughly 2,000 newspaper, magazine and online columns in the past three-plus decades, I am neither fatigued nor void of material. Frankly, I've just been busy.

    As it is written in Matthew 6:27: "And who of you by being worried can add a single hour to his life?"

  • We must always remember September 11, 2001

    Saturday, September 11, 2021 6:15 AM
    Saturday, Sept. 11 is the 20th anniversary of the terrorists’ attacks of September 11, 2001 on the World Trade Center towers, the Pentagon and the thwarted attack on the U.S. Capitol because of the heroic actions of the 40 passengers and crew aboard Flight 93. Let us never forget.

  • The world watches while Biden blames others

    Thursday, August 26, 2021 7:50 PM
    It is not at all curious that for the past 18 months, not a single U.S. Armed Forces member was murdered in Afghanistan. The draw-drown of U.S. troops supported by President Trump was negotiated with clear – crystal clear – caveats to the Taliban. (And please, Biden, stop calling these terrorists the "tolleybon," just because someone told you to. It's demeaning as hell for a U.S. president.) It is now painfully obvious that the terrorists in Afghanistan have had no respect for Bush 43, Obama 44, Trump 45 or Biden 46. But of the four, the goat-herders feared only one. That would be Trump 45.

  • All the best to Kevin Boys and SSCC

    Monday, August 23, 2021 7:06 PM
    In early December 2009, Southern State Community College Board of Trustees Vice Chair Ralph Shell made a motion to employ Kevin Boys as the new college president. Without hesitation, I seconded Ralph's motion.

  • In spite of radio talking heads, health care professionals are still heroes

    Monday, August 2, 2021 4:22 AM
    Some days, I just need to avoid talk radio. I'm better off with Pat Hays' music on WVNU, or WOBO or the Hall of Famer Chubby Howard on 1090 AM.
