Column: Straight to the (exclamation) point
Punctuation is important in this business. Take away our periods and commas and hyphens and our news stories would be reduced to mostly unintelligible jumbles of letters and spaces. And then the rest of this newspaper would be no better than this column.

Column: Looking lived in, little by little
The newspaper business being what it is, it’s hard to know whether I’ll spend the rest of my professional life working in journalism. There are too many variables. For all I know, Facebook will launch a daily newscast next month made up of nothing but photos of babies, food and kittens.

Column: Still committed to your city

Column: Learning a sweet lesson
You can learn a lot when you work for a newspaper. You learn things that interest you. You learn things that are of value to your readers. You also learn things just because some public relations person somewhere got ahold of your email address. It’s the professional equivalent of a telemarketing call during dinner.

You can hear the crack of the bat
In one sense, baseball is a game of numbers, numbers involving runs batted in, earned run averages, singles, two-baggers, homers, attendance. My late friend Dave Goldsmith subscribed to Baseball Digest, several baseball newspapers and even flunked out of a college because he spent his entire freshman year memorizing baseball statistics.

Editorial: Merger means more news, not less local
By this point you’ve probably noticed there is something different about your local paper. It’s bigger. Its layout has changed. And, oh yeah, there’s a whole new city’s worth of news in there.

Column: Another week of activity overload
I’ve come to understand there are certain times of the year when I just have to let all of my friends and family know I’ll be missing in action for a few days. Or weeks. It depends.

Editorial: Happy to be in Farmington
As we put the finishing touches on this week’s Independent many of our readers are probably gathering with family and friends to celebrate the holiday season in their own particular way. They are eating big meals and sharing gifts. They are enjoying togetherness and, we hope, generally taking stock of the ways in which they are fortunate.

Editorial: Plenty of good news in schools
Farmington got a lot of attention last week thanks to the actions of one high school hockey player. The reaction is not a big surprise. The video of Austin Krause’s abrupt departure from the ice Feb. 12 was striking, and for many it played neatly into an ongoing narrative about What’s Wrong With Kids Today.

Column: My job is worse than your job
Plenty of people think they have a lousy job. They daydream about winning the lottery or about writing the Great American Novel or, if the research I did for last week’s column is any indication, about finding a generous sugar daddy to keep them in the manner to which they would like to become accustomed.

Editorial: An important mix of stories
On Saturday afternoon a healthy portion of the greater Farmington community came together to give one family a very special gift. For more than an hour, band members and sheriff’s deputies, firefighters and Boy Scouts traced a parade route around an Empire Township neighborhood, part of a Make-A-Wish gift that just kept growing.

Longtime local legislator Walter Klaus has died
When Walter Klaus celebrated his 100th birthday last April, the topic of redistricting came up. In another gathering it might have been idle political banter, but for Klaus it was serious business. He had some ideas.

Column: Pets bring a lot to a home
Almost everyone will have a pet sometime during their life. Animals bring so much happiness and fun; they really change the overall feeling of a house. No matter what kind of pet, I think all pets are good.

Student column: Snow shortage: good or bad?
Does anyone else think it’s weird that we’re almost halfway through November and – as of the time I wrote this — it hasn’t snowed yet? I’m surely not complaining that the weather has been nice. I’m not a huge fan of the cold. But that thought just popped into my head the other day and I couldn’t seem to shake it.
