The Mule: It’s Never Too Late

The sad reality is that every new Clint Eastwood film could be his last. After more than six decades on the Silver Screen, Eastwood?now eighty-eight?is fighting the one opponent he can?t beat?Father Time. There?s an obvious hitch in his step, a veritable roadmap of...

The Devout – Life (or Lives) As Art

Kids say the darnedest things. Blurting out inappropriate potty humor at the dinner table. Sharing Mommy?s not-so-flattering nickname for Daddy during the children?s sermon. Recounting the violent end to their past life. At least most of us can identify with the first...

The Caretaker–Don’t Fret Regret

And you thought driving your Mammaw to the Piggly Wiggly was a pain. Be glad you?re not Mallorie.? She?d kill for a lazy jaunt to the corner market.? That?s because her crazed Gram Gram Birdie seems obsessed with the dead?and bringing them back to the land of the...
