It’s Sunday in August, and we’ve got a guest column from Paul Curran from you. Even with a title like ‘I Want to Be Unhappy,’ I’ll go out on a limb and say that my life is perhaps tolerable in these moments when I’m reading the words from our friend from Canada. You’ll get what…
I’m glad to report that our guest columnist Paul Curran is back in good spirits and feeling well enough this week to present his Sunday Cuppa. And I’m also happy to say that he’s decided to listen to your comments and write about his interesting friend Penny again. And so he recalls … Welcome to…
The wonderful writer who usually fills this Sunday spot informs me that there will be no Cuppa coming from Paul Curran this morning. He’s not feeling up to hitting a grand slam this time around. Let’s all take a moment to wish him a great week in Canada. Feel better, good sir.

In his email that accompanied this week’s guest column, our friend Paul Curran apologized how this sad entry includes just two photos, at top and bottom, because of its sad tenor. Indeed, it is a story steeped in sorrow about a friend’s family hardship that touched Paul’s life this week. As always, Paul tells it…
Welcome to Paul Curran’s weekly Sunday guest column. Today he takes us on a trip to a truck stop and an encounter with a special hitch-hiker with a bike in tow. Take it away, superb storyteller Paul. Welcome to the weekly coffee and tea garden. My name is Paul, I’ll be your barista today and…
I caught sight of a little kid wearing a great T-shirt last weekend at the Polish Fest in Clinton Square. Mom smiled when I asked if I could grab a photo of her kids, and they quickly lined up against the monument. Then I realized that the bigger boy on the left had the object…
It’s been a few years since my dear wife Karen and I had a cat around the Little Bitty. RIP, dear Puffy and Toby. Take it away, Sunday guest columnist Paul, to handle the subject of the furry feline pets. Don’t get any ideas, Karen. Welcome to the weekly coffee and tea garden. My name…
