Holten: Life's little reminders
By Kevin Holten , May 08, 2013
Life in Chipsville
Have you ever suffered from depression? I’m sure you have. I think we all have at one time or another, at least for short periods of time.By Kevin Holten , July 11, 2012
Commitment might set you free
Yesterday I was driving south on Highway 22 when three stout, multi-colored horses shot like rockets through the open gates of a ranch yard, zipped across the highway, slipped into the opposite ditch and galloped south along the fence line, followed closely by a tiny lady in a little red pickup truck that did exactly the same thing.By Kevin Holten , May 09, 2012
Who do we owe?
Have you ever gone on vacation, looked forward to it for months, paid for most of it with a credit card, had a great time, hated to come back and then you still have to pay off the credit card bill?By Kevin Holten , March 21, 2012
When the lights look lonely
Now that the exhilaration of Christmas is over the question is whether we can remain sane from now until snow turns to slop, trees sprout buds, dandelions bloom, baseballs fly off spring training bats, students start cramming and the Easter Bunny hides eggs in every nook and cranny from Bakersfield, Calif. to Bedford, N.H.By Kevin Holten , January 06, 2010
CIA; a not-so-funny comedy
If you’re a horror film addict who likes to be scared out of his or her boxers or thongs, here’s something that might inject more fear into you than “The Exorcist,” “Frankenstein,” “Dracula,” Freddy Krueger and hunting with Dick Cheney combined.By Kevin Holten , December 09, 2009
A spice bigger than oil
What’s 2,800 years old, helps cure cancer and used to be more valuable than gold? You guessed it, cinnamon.By Kevin Holten , December 02, 2009
Who to credit for annual celebration of thanks?
Claiming that Christopher Columbus discovered America is a little like saying that Col. Sanders discovered chicken. It’s not quite true.By Kevin Holten , November 25, 2009
Big names but regular Joes
I’m not a big fan of celebrities. Never have been, never will be. But one of the things about living in Los Angeles is that, in addition to green lawns and flowers in January, crashing waves, sooty air, 14 million neighbors and an opportunity to overpay for everything from socks to hot dogs, you get to meet them, whether you want to or not.By Kevin Holten , September 23, 2009
N.D., a breath of fresh air
When people ask me why I moved from California to North Dakota I have a simple answer; oxygen. You see the Dakota prairies and Badlands have lots of it and California doesn’t.By Kevin Holten , September 16, 2009
Food: It's not for everyone
I need to go to the gym.By Kevin Holten , September 02, 2009
Equality should be slam dunk
Is it me or has the whole equality issue between men and women lost some of its luster and controversy? Either people don’t care anymore or women have simply reached the mountaintop. Or maybe the public is more interested in Michael Jackson’s sleep aids, what garment the first lady pulls out of her closet and which athletes became superstars because of steroids.By Kevin Holten , August 26, 2009
Landscape has a pimple or 2
I may not be a great card player, shower crooner, political analyst, mall shopper or sensitive male but I am a very experienced and determined road warrior.By Kevin Holten , August 19, 2009
Jammy bottoms: The uniform of major league baseball
A poll of today’s major league baseball players will reveal that most of their mommy’s tucked them in at night dressed in “jammies” with feet. That would be the only way to explain fetish for wearing baggy uniform pants so wide and so long that they nearly cover their spikes.By Kevin Holten , August 05, 2009
