The end of the month of April marks the 150th anniversary of several crucial events in American History that had devastating effects on the whole United States in the Nineteenth Century. The Civil War, or the War of the Rebellion as it is called in the Deep South, began April 12, 1861 with the firing on Ft.
I do not know if grouchy comes with old age or if in old age you are too weak to subdue it. I guess it does not really matter because I am having a little bit of trouble along this line. My grouchy seems to be getting out of control.
I remember the good old days, those carefree days, days when I did not let anything bother me.
Mother's Day is almost here. This occasion may have special significance for you if you've been fortunate enough to have your mother around for your adult life. So naturally, you'll want to bring Mom some flowers or another gift. But if she's planning to retire soon, you may want to think about a longer-term way to improve her life — namely, by initiating a conversation about her retirement income strategy.
Of course, she may already have matters well in hand.
KINGSVILLE—Some of Llano High's finest athletes of the future delivered admirable performances at the Region IV Track & Field Meet, May 1-2, but junior Colton Center was all polish in the present, claiming a bronze medal in the shot put. That means he's third in Class 4A in one-quarter of a state that's as big in population as North Korea and Australia and bigger than the Netherlands and Romania.
"Three or four weeks ago,"
BURNET—A year ago, Wyatt Casey exchanged his track uniform for a 7-on-7 jersey, owning a slight edge to become the Llano High quarterback for the 2014 season. It took one night to see that Casey's arm was not as strong as his legs, and the QB job went to Holden Simpson.
On May 4, the coaches' hopes were both realistic and much higher that this time Mighty Casey would not strike out, and he would concretize his role as quarterback for the 2015 campaign.
Horseshoe Bay—In the long and storied athletic journey of the University of Texas, one of the greatest coaches was Jody Conradt. Looking like she could return to the bench she left eight years ago, Conradt told Horseshoe Bay Sports Club members, "You've got to bring a group together," to form a winning team.

Why are you interested in serving on the school board?
The students of Llano ISD must be prepared to compete in the marketplace whether they leave to further their education or stay in Llano County to work. I have triplet daughters in kindergarten in Llano ISD who have 12 more years of school ahead of them.
I graduated from Llano High School and the following year joined the U.S. Army where I served for three years. Following my military service I attended Angelo State University majoring in Psychology until being selected to the San Angelo Police Department. While with SAPD, I worked on Patrol, in Criminal Investigations and as a Motorcycle Officer.
After five years with SAPD, I applied and was accepted to the Texas Department of Public Safety.
