  1. Daddy, I love you

    This isn't the first time that I've written about my grandchildren, but I just couldn't resist creating one more verbal montage of things that they have said in various public situations.   As they get older, of course, the sayings won't be considered...

  2. They say the darndest things

    This isn’t the first time that I’ve written about my grandchildren, but I just couldn’t resist creating one more verbal montage of things that they have recently said in various public situations. As they get older, of course, the sayings won’t be considered quite as clever or cute, so let’s us just take advantage of their youth, innocence and unregulated comments while we still can.

  4. Camp Douglas effort stirs ghosts of the Civil War

    If you are among those who believe in ghosts, you've got it made. According to various surveys and studies, something in the neighborhood of 45 percent of adults in this country believe in ghosts. That number is almost certainly higher here, since we have such familiar spirits as Resurrection Mary, flagging down cars traveling Archer Avenue; the seven unfortunates gunned down in the St. Valentine's Day Massacre, prowling North Clark Street; and the innumerable young women murdered by H.H. Holmes, wandering the grounds of what was the World's Columbian Exposition.

  5. Aberdeen mayor and city council raises not justified [editorial]

    What's the fair going rate to pay someone who has been elected to public office? It's an open question, and one that needs to be asked often and, once settled for one generation, asked anew again for the next generation. These days it's being asked in...

    When it comes to American history, the Civil War remains a topic that's charged with emotion. So it's disappointing that there's not more passion at the heart of "Ses•qui•cen•ten•ni•al – The Civil War Remembered," a one-...

  8. Siege of Suffolk envelops Hampton Roads

    No one remembers how high Lt. Amos Thayer had to climb on April 11, 1863, as he scrambled up to a tree-top observation post overlooking the western approaches to Suffolk.

  9. Carnett: Others' histories stand as great inspirations

    I was led quite by accident last week to peruse a pair of highly absorbing memoirs. That's the nice thing about being retired. You have time to indulge your reading passions, from selections on the latest bestseller lists to enduring works you've long...

  12. Karen Russell explains 'The Barn at the End of Our Term'

    Singling out a Karen Russell story for being strange is a bit like acknowledging a raindrop for being wet. Beginning with her debut 2006 collection, &ldquo;St. Lucy&rsquo;s Home for Girls Raised by Wolves,&rdquo; Russell has presented an expanding universe of fiction that is so cracked, so twisted and so brilliantly described that when readers encounter her new book, &ldquo;Vampires in the Lemon Grove,&rdquo; they will have no choice but to give in to the urge to ask one of the most-cliched questions known to writer and reader alike: &ldquo;How the hell did she come up with that?&rdquo;
