The Weekend
Hot Spot - All
Aboard Diner
By Terry
Pentelli
There are many
obvious
differences
between small
towns and
cities, small
towns have more
grass than tall
buildings and
parking lots.
You will also
find mostly
family owned and
operated
businesses in
small towns,
rather than the
corporate
machine that
pumps customers
through much
like an assembly
line. Most
importantly,
people who
always take the
time to stop and
chat just
because that is
their way will
always be the
way of small
town people...Read

Self-Destructive
Behavior
By Marlo
Sollitto
Stress manifests
itself in many
ways, including
self-destructive
behavior that we
know is not good
for us, but we
can’t stop doing
it.
People under
stress usually
don’t take care
of themselves,
but rather
partake in
self-destruction.
These bad
behaviors range
from binging on
junk food, not
taking care of
ourselves or
turning to
alcohol or
drugs...Read

Forty Years
of Blues
By Jenna Croyle
As one of the
only truly
American musical
art forms, blues
music spawned
rock-and-roll,
rhythm and
blues, soul and
even rap.
The
sound
that
originated
in
Mississippi's
cotton
fields
and juke
joints
shaped
much of
today’s
music
and can
be found
everywhere
in jazz,
rhythm
and
blues,
rock and
roll and
also in
several
subgenres
ranging
from

Bragging Children
Three women were sitting around and
bragging about their children. The first
one says, " You know, my son is a
mechanical Engineer, who could fix any
complicated mechanical failures." The
second woman says, "You know my son,
works at Boeing fixing planes." The last
woman says, "You know my son, he never
did too well in school. He never went to
any university but he now makes one
million dollars a year in New York
working as a sports repairman." The
other two women ask "What is a sports
repairman?" The woman then replies, "He
fixes games... you know, hockey games,
football games, baseball games...."
