The city of Kountze is just a tiny hamlet buried in the vast wilderness of the Texas landscape, but if you mess with the Kountze High School cheerleaders, you are in for Big repercussions. Now cheerleading is not just "rah-rah" from the sidelines of a game (I dated lead cheer Morgan Snedadeckers as a High School junior, well, I didn't really date her -- have you seen the movie "Can'

Coming off the success of the Pineywoods Cattle Baron's event, along with October being noted for Breast Cancer Awareness month, timing could not be worse for the announcement coming from The Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas.

While politics is not really my thing for several reasons I keep to myself, this year's election and results thereof, will surely be a part of high school and college history lessons in the year 2032  --  that is, if the world as we know  --  still exists.

Daryl Hannah is perhaps best known for her role opposite Tom Hanks in Splash, and she was beloved in Steel Magnolias. More recently she's become involved in political protests, and that led to her arrest yesterday right here in East Texas, in Wood County. She was released last night from the Wood County Jail in Winnsboro. What happened?

I was driving on a Lufkin street yesterday, inside a neighborhood community that's eluded me since moving here - in other words, I got lost. Anyway, during this scenic getaway, and while cruisin' at speeds which would have made my granddaddy Mick St. Nick feel proud, I slowed the Pinto to a crawl so as to admire a flag waving in the soft breeze.

First Tom Morello, now Dee Snider. Vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan may love rock music, but he’s not exactly having much success buddying up to any musicians at the moment. Twisted Sister‘s Dee Snider is the latest to lash out at Ryan, calling him out over using his band’s music at a recent rally.

Getting Ted Nugent riled up about politics has become the reporting equivalent of shooting fish in a barrel, but when the Nuge sat down for an interview with the Broward-Palm Beach New Times recently, the writer couldn’t resist — and Nugent was all too happy to oblige, taking the opportunity to go off on yet another tirade about what he sees as an epic struggle between good and evil.

Eagles guitarist Joe Walsh has often joked about running for office, announcing a tongue-in-cheek presidential campaign in 1980 and throwing his name in the hat for vice president in 1992. But in a new interview to promote his solo album ‘Analog Man,’ the musician reveals he’s considering a real-life bid for political office.

Holy Cow Batman! These days it is commonplace to review every document known to civilization regarding any report, journal, manuscript, article, finding, etc... Believing in its content on face value because the author is considered a topical expert is why MSNBC gives us "American Greed and Scams" six times on Sunday. Hydraulic fracturing (fracking) is the action of pressurized fluid and

About 30 years ago in the building of another radio station, one my colleagues asked  for my opinion on then prez Jimmy Carter.  Knowing absolutely nothing about politics, I could hear my "Poli-Sci" teacher saying "...never discuss religion or politics at work". Today, I know even fewer politics, that is to say, not qualified for any legiti or non-legitimate discussion.  Nevert

Before heading back to Lufkin to observe the fireworks extravaganza at Ellen Trout Zoo, I took a side trip to Big Sandy.  Located at the crossroads of U.S. Highway 80 and Texas State Highway 155, the city isn't all that "Big", but on Independence Day, it became larger than life itself.

The Angelina County and state primary elections results came in last night, seeing Robert Nichols, Trent Ashby and Greg Sanchez victorious in their respective races.
