 Natural gas prices have dropped compared to last year.   In Sandusky, if you went with the “aggregated rate” the City of Sandusky negotiated (which was a very good fixed rate, by the way, compared to other options) you paid $1.03/ccf.  This year, the City of Sandusky negotiated a rate of .749 ce

You know that old saying, "Children follow by example." I never really gave it any thought until this morning. I was in my oldest child's bedroom as she was getting dressed for school when we realized her school pants, which just fit a few weeks ago, didn't button.

I had an excellent week of exercise and a much-improved week on the new nutrition plan.

You may have seen the story in the past week about the grassroots effort to bring the bald eagles back to the area of their famous nest at Gerold's Old Dutch Tavern on Perkins Avenue.

 I am scared for humanity. Why is it you have to have a license to drive, but anyone can reproduce together? Sometimes, the latter is definitely more dangerous. I’m sorry, but everyone thinks it: Some people should just not have children.

The Sandusky Regurgitator has obtained a confidential plan concocted by well meaning people to improve the image of the city of Sandusky.  The plan bears no date, but local political activists claim that some of the ideas in the plan are already being practiced by the establishment in Sandusky.

At least in terms of revenues, Hollywood had it's best summer ever: It racked up more than $4.31 billion, topping 2007's $4.16 billion.

It is so hard to believe that we only have four months to go until the end of this wonderful journey. 

While I have not lost as much weight as I had hoped by this point, I have learned so much about the process and myself.

Last week I blogged about the health care debate and encouraged readers to first understand both sides, then decide.   But I noticed I failed to share an important detail on why this issue is so important.  “The Medicare Part A Hospital Insurance Fund will have insufficient funds to pay for full

Allright, campaign time.  

Here's links to campaign websites.  I don't have them all, because I don't know which ones are online yet.

I'm not sure how the Buckeyes will do on Saturday, but here's a video that was put together showcasing the clunkers put in a Script Ohio at the Kasper Toyota Scion dealership in Perkins Township.

"Sherlock Holmes" is probably the closest thing to a summer blockbuster we'll see in Fall 2009. It's got a bonified superstar in the lead role (Robert Downey Jr.), a smoking hot love interest (Rachel McAdams), a villain threatening to destroy the world (Mark Strong) and an $80 million budget.

A commenter at the Morning Journal:  (since every comment so far on the Register's website has been completely inane)

Krabill is no dummy.  My guess is that he's knows something the average person doesn't and his run is strategic.

When Heath Ledger passed away last year, pundits pronounced his role at the Joker in "The Dark Knight" his last hurrah. Like Ted Williams, Ledger had hit a home run in his last at-bat, even earning the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor posthumously.

I wanted to share an e-mail I received this morning from a reader who was not happy with the thoughts I shared in the column published in Sunday's paper, and my response. Here it is, for what it's worth. I have redacted the reader's name because I don't think she wanted the e-mail published.
