U.S.Senator and American astronaut John Glenn's return trip to outer space Thursday can serve as a reminder to us all.That reminder is that no matter how old we get, we can still reach the stars. Glenn is 77 and returned to outer space Thursday 36 years after his first trip. Glenn last went into space before Nixon's resignation, before the end of the Vietnam War and before many high school students and college students today were born. In our trendy, pop-culture, fast food, channel-surfing times, we sometimes forget that we are all aging.There is no fountain of youth where we can remain forever young, even though cosmetic companies would have you believe otherwise.The phrase, "It won't happen to me!" doesn't apply here. The human body ages, for all people.I'll get old, you'll get old, and that one person you had a crush on back in high school will get old.It's the way it works.

Editor, Times-Union:Ladies and gentlemen of Kosciusko County,Thank you to the thousands of people that came out and voted yesterday. It was a historic turnout as well as a historic outcome. I wish, however, that our numbers of participating registered voters were larger. Just over 60 percent of registered voters is a greater number than we have seen, but not that impressive when you consider the issues at hand.

Editor, Times-Union:I wish to call your attention to something very unusual, I think.

Editor, Times-Union:I am an elderly senior who has seen many changes over the years.

The news took my breath away at first, like hearing that a favorite married couple was divorcing.Then I wanted all the nasty details. Tammy Denlinger, a charter member of the Back To The Days Of Kosciuszko steering committee, called to say the group has disbanded and would no longer organize the historical event. Denlinger and a few others have coordinated the Lucerne Park event for nine years and, quite frankly, she has other things to do. "The event became too much for too few," Denlinger said."I've worked on the committee for nine years and hoped someone else would take my place.That hasn't happened." The annual weekend event, held in September along the shores of Pike Lake, presented life during Revolutionary War times in Colonial America. Back To The Days honored Polish military strategist Thaddeus Kosciuszko, after whom the county is named.

- Good Teachers - Haines Says Thanks Good Teachers Editor, Times-Union: Recently, it seems as though the teachers and staff of WCHS have been under constant scrutiny.Letters to the Editor of the Times-Union have stereotyped our teachers as adults who constantly use profanity, who touch and harass students in inappropriate ways, who judge kids unfairly, and these authors have even claimed that the teacher's word is always taken over the student's when their alleged deeds come to the attention of the administration.

- Tax Policy - Chiropractic Concerns - Akron Says Thanks Tax Policy Editor, Times-Union: Benjamin Franklin once wrote, "Our constitution is in actual operation; everything appears to promise that it will last, but in this world nothing is certain but death and taxes."When dealing with the possibility of a budget shortfall, around the General Assembly one hears talk of "tax restructuring with revenue enhancement."While this term sounds nice enough, it means that Franklin was right - taxes are, indeed, certain.
