Dave Simpson: Lander Valley High School Endorses This Book For Children? Seriously?

Columnist Dave Simpson writes, "We're not talking about taking 'Catcher in the Rye,' 'Huckleberry Finn,' or 'To Kill a Mockingbird' off library shelves. This is about not making the most raw, obscene material available to young people at Lander's high school."

Clair McFarland: Real Girls Are Made Of Go-Carts And Antelope Skulls

Clair McFarland writes: "This little girl is even tougher than my boys. She climbs onto the trampoline with them, drops to all fours, snatches their ankles and topples them like dominoes. They dogpile her, roughing her hair into a unicorn horn above her ponytail."

Rod Miller: Books! - Or – Johannes Gutenberg For The Humanity Hall Of Fame

Columnist Rod Miller writes, "If you think books will corrupt your kids’ minds, be a better parent. If you think that reading Mein Kampf will turn Junior into a Nazi, or Das Kapital will turn Sis commie, then do a better job of teaching them to be Americans."

Today's question to Don Day

Sally from Douglas, Wyoming
Is this the snowiest winter we’ve ever had?
Don Day
On a statewide basis, I can’t say that. But for Wyoming, as a whole, it may be the snowiest since 1982 - 1983 and maybe back to the late 1970s. There will be some people who will say it hasn’t been that snowy here — like in Cheyenne or Laramie. But if you look at Casper, Lander, Rawlins, Rock Springs, and Jackson — they’ve probably had one of the snowiest seasons in 30 or 40 years.
