Rix Quinn’s Minute Story Extravaganza: November 17, 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: Your permanent record

Somewhere in the bowels of the earth -- hidden from your view, but not your employer’s -- lies your “permanent record.” It’s a little like a cold sore…it only shows up when you need to make a good impression. As I remember, teachers warned my about my "record" every time I got in trouble. If that record is still around, it’s got to be really long by now. Anyway, this paper trail supposedly follows someone to high school, to the […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: Are people ruder today than ever before?

Yesterday I saw a national survey that reports people are ruder today than ever before. So today – along with my sound recorder, my friend Jim, and his dog Kitty -- we conducted our own poll. We asked several people “Are folks ruder today than they were 20 years ago?” Here’s what they said: A high school boy answered: “How should I know? I‘m only 15.” One man said, “Absolutely...and so are the residents of my planet.” Two men asked […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: Moving to a new location

So, you want to move to a new location? Why do you want to move? Would you like a bigger apartment? Would you like a bigger yard? Would you like a bigger dog? Do you want new neighbors? Do want want a swimming pool? Would you like new neighbors with a swimming pool? First, throw away stuff you don’t need, like old gum wrappers, telephone books before 2013, and dead bugs. Keep important things like the TV, the DVD player, […]

Mac’s Korner: Week of February 28, 2018

Here's another riddle: What can fly, but not stand still; devouring all while eating nil; what is wasted, never lent; never earned, but always spent? **** Years ago, a city fellow was driving through Nokomis when his Model A broke down. Luckily, it stopped in front of a house where an elderly man was sitting in a rocking chair on the porch. The driver walked up to the house and asked the man, "Would you happen to have a monkey […]

Mac's Korner: Week of January 24, 2018 To those who want to plan a family - take the woman's age and the month she conceived, add them together - if odd, it'll be a boy. If even, it will be a girl. It has never failed that I know of. **** I try to avoid things that make me fat, like scales, photographs and mirrors. **** They say we learn from our mistakes. That's why I'm making as many as […]
