Some of you old-timers may recall those two dang good sign painters and the building that Richard Pettigrew used to have for his engineer office.

“Today is the 40th anniversary of Earth Day, and while it may never live up to the first Earth Day celebration with a supposed 20 million rallied participants, we can still enjoy the outdoors, clean a river, drink from a Nalgene, turn out the lights when you’re not using them– or what ever it is that you do today to have a conscious impact.

As evidence of my success, consider the following: • We tied for first in the friendly tournament and we didn’t cheat. • The sunburn I received didn’t p... Full story
