The time has come for the current owners of this newspaper to give serious thought to retirement. We have run The Odessa Record for seven years, plus the years spent working under the previous owner Don Walter. It has been mostly a rewarding and fulfilling endeavor, despite the weekly deadlines and hectic nature of the business. But the time has come to think about slowing down. Our purpose in moving back to Odessa was to be closer to family and to help out our elderly mother. The newspaper takes up way too much of our time,...

I was raised in the Baptist church. As a grade school child, I memorized the books of the Bible. Maybe because of that personal history, when I started to study geology I didn’t resist memorizing the many pieces of the geologic time scale. The next to the last piece of geologic time is the Pleistocene Epoch (known informally by many as the Ice Age). It is followed by the Holocene Epoch (the warm time we are living in now.) The Holocene Epoch has seen the rise of human c...

By that time, flames were shooting out of the car. The fire was extinguished, and Kramer rescued her purse and her...
