This is a letter of gratitude to the Rosenberg Library with its staff and volunteers.
At $750,000, the investment by the Galveston Island Park Board to help fund a project that would put up to 900,000 cubic yards of sand on local beaches is a bargain and one to support.
Politicians have figured out ways to tax just about everything, except ... politics. Taxing politics is a perfect taxing scenario. The contributions don't belong to the politicians, and seem to have an unending flow.

On Dec. 15, my family will participate in the annual Wreaths Across America event at Barancas National Cemetery in Pensacola, Florida, Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery in St. Louis, and the Houston National Cemetery.
It's that time of the year when I hear weather forecasters warning drastic climate conditions coming, which will be perceived to change life as we know it, in the way of a "cold" front. It's going to get down to the low 40s and maybe "life" threatening 30s.

When holiday times start rolling around, do you think about all the sweet things you can make to serve at festive meals?
Running the west beach in the early morning, the most interesting people I encounter are fishermen. They frequent the pocket parks where they can drive to the shoreline to unload their gear. My fascination derives less from their sport than their demeanor.
Democrats won two years of isolation in the House. A $2 billion blunder. Weaker now than before the election.
We want to offer a big thank you to all the staff at DeMontrond Chevrolet for hosting its first car show.
Most years on this date we use this space to argue that honoring veterans requires more commitment than once a year attending Veterans Day events and thanking people who donned the uniforms and took the oaths to serve in our armed forces.
What is The Daily News' policy on publishing hunting photos? It has struck me as very odd that, in the very same newspaper, there will be articles encouraging the adoption of pets and support of the animal shelter, and also trophy shots of people proudly posing next to dead animals they’ve k…
