Hardin County Schools will start once again Tuesday. The children are excited to see all their friends, but apprehensive about their new teachers and homework. It is time to adjust our schedules and get back into the groove of the school year.

Show of force

Recently I heard a radio talk show host disagree with George Bush’s decision to attend the Beijing Olympics. He opined that leaders of the free world should not go because of the Chinese government’s record of abusing human rights. He later said he wouldn’t go if he could but would watch it from his home. How bold of him.

I have to agree that Bush will botch an opportunity to do the right thing, but in this case all of us have a chance to make a statement.
