Saving the world a slice at a time - Columbia Star (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As I began reading about a New York pizzeria owner accosting a homeless person going through his garbage can, I expected an escalation and possible day in court. Those are the stories we usually see these days. Confrontation makes money. So I braced myself for the confrontation. New York is a tough town. I’ve visited the city. New Yorkers don’t take crap from nobody. So in this current mess we’re living in I expected a New York style argument. Instead, I was misty-eyed before I read a complete s
Saluda Shoals Riverwalk opens - Columbia Star (opens the original)

In 1992, the Irmo Chapin Recreation Commission purchased 265 acres of land from South Carolina Electric & Gas ( SCE& G) to establish a riverfront park.

Keeping My Man Card - Columbia Star (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I was on my way to O’Reilly Auto Parts, scared half to death. O’Reilly’s is convenient and I used it while valiantly and unsuccessfully trying to keep my ancient Highlander operating. She was well past her Use By date, 447,000 miles and two decades into service and still trying to hang on. I kept thinking about my Man Card.
