Rix Quinn’s Minute Stories: December 16, 2018

Reading I'd like to salute one of America's greatest unsung heroes. His name was Sterl Artley, a famous reading teacher, who died in 1968. He wrote wonderful stories about Dick and Jane. If you're a Baby Boomer, or a Generation Xer, you may remember them. These kids had a dog named Spot, and a cat named Puff. Mr. Artley's simple stories began with basic words, gradually building children's vocabulary and word recognition skills. Unfortunately, it's hard to find Dick and […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: December 8, 2018

Rats I live in a woody area, so I occasionally see some big rats in the neighborhood. One of my friends tells me that long ago, there were actually giant rats. So I looked it up…and he's right. Actually, the monster rats measured nine feet long, many times the size of my friend's gerbil Gerald. This giant rodent lived nearly eight million years ago. Fortunately for 21st century people, the animal is now quite sincerely extinct. Scientists say this beast […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: December 1, 2018

Catfish At a restaurant the other night, I overheard somebody ask his dinner companion, "How do you make a catfish?" I offered a reply. The answer, of course, is, “Give him a rod and reel.” But this man wanted to know how to extract bones from the critter. I've got no idea. But I did research the beast, and will now reveal more than you wanted to know about the seafood with whiskers. Catfish live in fresh water. Most catfish […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: Minute Story Extravaganza

Editor Note: Due to situations in the newsroom the past couple Saturdays, we were unable to publish the column. The stories for the past two weeks and this week's installment will be published today. - JL Heroes How many heroes do you know? I've met a few. Some of those were family and friends. And a few were nationally-known. My dad Bill was a long-time newspaper editor, and interviewed several. I rarely saw him get flustered. But he met one guy […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: Self improvement

I've heard there are more books on self improvement than any other subject. My friend Lisa claims that’s true…and she should know. She eats right, dresses well, and talks sweeter than a candy salesman at a dental convention. She’s been to more seminars than most caterers. And she’s always looking for another body part to get fixed, tucked, or liposucked. I wish I had that much ambition. But my goal is to live a "balanced life." That means if I […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: Night light

The most important light in our house is the smallest one. Like many families, we keep a tiny night light in a dark hallway. That bulb’s kept me safe for years. When our child was little, it illuminated a path to her room, so we wouldn’t stumble if she called us. Later, it kept us from tripping over our large and frequently sleeping dog. Not long ago, before guests came over, I pulled the light out so I could plug […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: Dodo bird

Back when I was a kid, people used to joke about the “dodo bird.” Was it real? Yes, this fowl (pronounced “dough-dough”) actually lived. But it’s been extinct since the 1680’s, which makes it officially, sincerely lifeless. It’s no wonder the dodo didn’t survive. Its wings were too small to fly, and its legs too short to run. Predators found the bird easier to catch than a head cold. The little animal lived on islands in the Indian Ocean. It […]
