DEAR ABBY: I was married to a wonderful, beautiful woman when we were much younger. We got married because of an unplanned pregnancy. After some years, we both had grown in different directions, and we divorced. We remained friends even after I remarried.
ar DEAR HARRIETTE: I hung out with some friends and got an earful. My friends said that even though their children go to a predominantly white school, they have told their children that they had better not bring any white girls home as a date or to marry. They were adamant about this, completely unapologetic in their belief that their black children had better marry black. They went on to talk about the history of racism and segregation in our country as reasons for why they want their children to stick with their own. While I understand their point, I don’t like this attitude and don’t think it’s fair, considering that they have surrounded their kids with white people. What is your opinion on this? — Racial Lines

DEAR ABBY: I am trying hard to let go of my paralyzing fear of driving, which has prevented me from getting a license. I am not sure why I get so nervous and afraid when I get behind the wheel. I really need a car to get my family and myself around. I just wish I knew what was causing this.
Dear Doctor: I got a flu shot this fall, but I still got sick. Why did this happen? Dear Reader: Considering how this year’s flu season is shaping up, we’re not surprised by your question.
There are things we really like about the upcoming school bond proposal and there are things we sure wish had been done differently.
But to us it has become less about the bumpy road that was taken and more about the destination.
If I'm going to be completely honest, I cried a little as I listened to Donald Trump speak at the 47th March for Life, a massive annual pro-life rally in Washington, D.C. The tears were caused by a combination of things, including lack of sleep, I'm sure.
Dear Editor,
George Orwell comes to Clinton!
At City Hall, we now have a portable camera that “tells” if we have current insurance on our vehicles or not.
This was to solve the problem of us having a higher than average rate of uninsured motorists.
