To the editor:
GPL Column: Celebrating the coronation of King Charles III
I grew up in the country, and having cable was not an option. When I was around 13 years old, we got a satellite dish, and my television world opened up.
Norman Knight: Funny how time changes things
I used to pay attention to the humor of Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart, but I don’t so much anymore. I guess my tastes in their sorts of observational comedy have changed, or maybe it’s their humor that has done the changing. Still, I respect their talents, and so was happy to read they grew up in the Al Jaffe world of Mad humor. Me too.
Michael Hicks: Economic opportunity now in high quality of life places
Economists have been seriously studying migration for a couple of centuries; for me it’s been a couple of decades. Over that time, we’ve learned a few useful things that should help elected leaders think about why places grow or shrink.

Wherever I give a talk, someone always asks a variation of this question.
Niki Kelly: Lawmakers should give a cold shoulder to this alcohol proposal
With so many tense and emotional topics moving at the Statehouse, I want to focus this week on something we can all agree on: Indiana’s alcohol laws are ridiculous, and lawmakers are about to double down on one of the worst ones.
Dick Wolfsie: The quest to be word perfect
I have been lecturing my adult son recently on how much time he spends playing video games. I don’t think he was listening, so next time I’ll wait until he takes his headset off.
Ryan Trares: Having a ball
A soccer player is blooming right before our eyes.
David Carlson: The ‘what if’ game
A favorite game of history lovers is the “what if” game. A version of the “what if” game is currently being played on a popular TV program, a show that imagines what America would be like if Germany and Japan had won WW II. Another popular program imagines life in our country if Russia had been first to land on the moon.
