RYAN BAKKEN: Spring won’t arrive until flood danger passes

RYAN BAKKEN: March Madness a good idea for states, too

RYAN BAKKEN: Weighing in on waist war
Last Thursday’s Herald carried a story about Col. Tim Bush, who was bounced from his leadership role because he didn’t meet the 39-inch waist limit. This seems odd. At 6-foot-1 and 227 pounds, Bush is hardly a tub of goo. Photographs reveal a double-chin — but not three or four of them.

RYAN BAKKEN: Immaturity never gets old
So, I’m on the couch, reading my Sunday Herald, when I spot a reference in a story to “mature adults.” Hmmm. Then I realize that “mature” is being used as a euphemism for “older.” Has “mature adult” become the new “senior citizen?” I hope not. I don’t want to be considered mature on any level.
