Rix Quinn’s Minute Story Flashback: Charles Perrault

Editor Note: Rix is off on assignment. Here's one of his Minute Stories, originally published on August 18, 2018. We’d like to recognize Charles Perrault, who preserved the folk tales of “Little Red Riding Hood”, “Sleeping Beauty” and many more. We’d bake a cake in his honor, but since he was born in 1628, he’s 375 now. Few folks that age can blow out the candles. Perrault painstakingly transcribed centuries-old stories that taught important lessons like bravery, honesty, and witch […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: New year resolutions

I discovered long ago that the best New Year resolutions require the least effort. Big plans often lead to big problems. Listen to these horror stories: One of my friends vowed to lose 175 pounds. So she divorced her husband. Another resolved to marry. That didn’t work, because that same year her boyfriend resolved to break up. Complicated resolutions require extreme action. No one should ever take a giant step, except maybe on Leap Year. Perhaps these tips will help: […]

Rix Quinn’s New Year Minute Story

Happy new year! So, have you ever wondered about the history of New Year celebrations? Ancient Egyptians celebrated New Year when the Nile River overflowed, usually in June. Then someone suggested, “If we change New Year to January, we won’t drown coming home from the party.” Early Romans named their celebration for Janus, a deity with two faces. One face looked backward, the other forward. Today, we also reflect on the past, and plan for the future. But we no […]

Rix Quinn’s Christmas Extravaganza

Christmas Trees Christmas trees are like a distant cousin. They come to your house, surround themselves with presents, stay a month…then they begin to shed, and need somebody to drive them off. People often do strange things with cut trees. One of my neighbors pulled out a chain saw and widened his front door three feet. That allowed him to bring in the tree without bending it, and it made a great spectacle the neighbors could video. Once inside the […]

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 […]
