Keeping Cool in the heat
Do any outside work early in the
morning, or in the evenings when
it has cooled down some. Save the
hottest part of the day for in house
activities or work.
Instead of using your cloths dryer
and adding more heat into your
home, hang your cloths outside to
dry. Then air fluff them on cool to
take out any stiffness.
Drink plenty of water. Stay away
from drinks that have caffeine in
them. They help to cause dehydration.
If you wear a hat or bandana, soak
it in cold water before putting it
on. This helps to keep your head
cool, for a long period of time.
Wear light-weight, loose-fitting,
light-colored cotton clothing. Light
colored clothing helps to reflect the
heat, were as dark clothing tends
to absorb the heat.
Turn off any lights that you absolutely do not have to have on. Keep
your stove and oven use to a minimum as well.
Drag boat rolls over
at Marine Creek Lake
Drag boat racer Don Ermshar was
seriously injured Sunday afternoon when
the speedboat he was piloting rolled over
at the finish line. The accident happened
during the Cowtown Drag Boat Nationals
at Marine Creek Lake.
Ermshar, 66, of Riverside, California,
was taken to Texas Health Fort Worth
Hospital. Ermshar was underwater in the
boat’s safety capsule for about 5 minutes
in 30 feet of water according to race
officials.
Two men killed in wreck
near Cherry Lane
One man was killed and a second died
Monday night from injuries suffered
late Sunday night when the two were
hit while putting gas in their vehicle.
The white minivan, containing three
adults and a toddler, had pulled to the
westbound side of the service road near
Cherry Lane and I-30 after running
out of gas. A Good Samaritan’s vehicle
had parked just in front of the minivan
to try and help.
As the two were pouring gas into
the van, a sport utility vehicle exited
the freeway, hitting the two men and
striking the minivan with the woman
and toddler still inside. The minivan
then struck the Good Samaritan’s
vehicle. The female passenger was
not injured and the toddler was taken
to Cook Children’s Medical Center
as a precaution. No one in the Good
Samaritan’s vehicle or the sport utility
vehicle was injured.
Neither drugs nor alcohol were a
factor in the accident according to
police reports.

White Settlement City Council, July 14, 2009
Council to hold workshop to discuss reinstatement of ethics commission Last Call to contribute school
By A.C. Hall
Representatives of the White
Settlement Independent School
District were on hand at the White
Settlement City Council meeting
last night to address the city’s recent
efforts to promote the Brewer Bears.
Superintendent Audrey Arnold,
Board President Randy Armstrong
and Assistant Superintendent of
Human Resources and Community
Relations Frank Molinar presented
the council with a framed
photograph as well as brand new
Brewer Bears T-shirts as they
thanked the city for their support.
Arnold spoke first and shared
a story about how much the
large Brewer Bear/City of White
Settlement stickers around the
city have made an impact on the
students who now recognize that
the city is supporting them.
“I just want you to know from
my heart how much I appreciate
that,” Arnold told the council.
She spoke about some of the efforts
underway to continue building
more school pride.
“It’s a tremendous honor and
privilege to be a Brewer Bear,”
Arnold said.
WSISD board president Armstrong also addressed the council
regarding the stickers.
“They send a very powerful and
positive message to this community
and also these kids,” he said. “We
like it, we think it sends a great
Mayor Jerry Burns receives a hug from WSISD Superintendent Dr.
Audrey Arnold as she and School Board President Randy Armstrong and
Assistant Superintendent Frank Molinar thank the city for their support
and installation of the Brewer Bear stickers at traffic light intersections
throughout the city.

message, and we thank you.”
Mayor Burns then read a
proclamation proclaiming Brewer
Bear Blue as the official color of
the city and urging all citizens to
show school spirit and support the
students by wearing it.
At the request of new council
member Helen Warner, the issue
of an ethics committee was placed
on the agenda and discussed.
The city previously had an ethics
commission from 1993 to 1996.
“Why don’t we have one now?”
Warner asked the council.
Mayor Burns read through some
provided minutes from the 1996
council meeting during which the
ethics commission was repealed
and suggested that only those who
voted to have it removed would be
able to answer Warner’s question.
“I think this is something that’s
very important for the city,” Warner
stated.
“I agree one hundred percent,”
council member Freta Powell
responded.
Warner asked staff to get
information from surrounding cities
on their ethics codes and practices.
Mayor Burns suggested holding a
workshop to start discussing the
issue and City Manager Jimmy
Burnett stated that he would get the
information Warner asked for and
have it ready for that workshop.
Also on the agenda for the
evening were two appointments to

The White Settlement
Area
Chamber
of
Commerce
continued
to work on plans for
several upcoming events
at their monthly meeting
held yesterday at Ryan’s
Steakhouse. With the
second annual Settler’s
Day festival coming up
in October, the chamber
began discussing the
details of their chili cookoff that is held at the
event.
While speaking about
the success of the first year,
chamber president Janet
Pruett showed her high
hopes for this year’s event.
“It’s going to be better
this year.” The event will
be held at Veteran’s Park
on Oct. 24 and the official
rules for the cook-off will
be available soon through
the chamber.
The school supply
drive for WSISD will be
wrapping up next week
and Pruett gave one last
call for donations.
“We’re running out
of time and we still need
supplies and money,” she
said. “We need to do our
part as business owners
and try to help our
schools.”

In other business the
chamber made a change to
their bi-monthly mixers.
Instead of having a bimonthly mixer located
at different businesses
each time they will
alternate. One month
will be a mixer to be held
at Chili’s and the next
will be the newly named
business spotlight held at
a chamber member’s place
of business.
Other upcoming events
discussed included a
“living history event”
on Aug. 1 at the White
Settlement
Historical
Museum and the White
Settlement Day Parade to
be held on Oct. 3.
The guest speaker
for the month was Rich
Allen.
Allen left his
successful
corporate
career to spend more time
with his family and has
since become a business
coach. He gave a brief
presentation on growing
your business and gave
away four business books

Letters from our Readers
Dear Readers: The following is a story written
by Bethany Warren, a fifth grader at the WSISD
Fine Arts Academy. It was sent in by her father,
Brad Warren and is about their wonderful summer
vacation. Beware: the story sounds a bit “fishy.”
Bethany and the catches of the day
on her fishing trip in Galveston,
Texas.
On the
Road Again
Vroom! A motorcycle
had just passed by-- I was on my way to
Galveston.
We finally arrived
at our hotel. As soon
as you walk in there’s a
huge lobby and a fish
tank. And as soon as
I saw the look on my
sister’s face, I could tell
she was fixing to run
straight to the fish tank.
So I went with her.
She pointed out every fish
she saw. Then it was time to go
to our room. We got the third
floor. Our room had two big
white beds, a giant TV, a very
clean bathroom, and best of all a
balcony with an ocean view.
Then we went out to eat
and when we were done it was
time to go back to the hotel.
We needed a good night’s rest
because in the morning Macey
and my mom were going to the
beach while me and my dad
went on a 12-hour fishing trip.
But I had to take some pills so I
wouldn’t get sick.
On the first hour I saw three
dolphins all jumping together.
There were also a whole bunch
of pelicans and seagulls. And
after a while those pills started to
make me real drowsy. So I took
a little rest.
But it turns out we were
sitting in somebody else’s spot.
But they told us that we didn’t
have to move. So my dad started
to chat with him. Then we
finally started to fish. My first
fish was a red snapper. But it
wasn’t big enough for us to keep.
But then Bill’s wife (he’s the guy
my dad was talking to) caught a
huge red snapper! A few minutes
later Bill caught the biggest red
snapper of them all because he
caught a tiny fish and used it as
bait instead of the squid we all
got.
Then Bill caught a fish that
looked like his dad was a shark
and his mom was a catfish. Then
my line got messed up so my
dad was trying to fix it. And
that’s when I saw a big o jerk on
his line so I started to reel it in
but that fish wanted that squid
without dying. So he jerked
and he jerked but I reeled and I
reeled and I finally
got him. And I got to keep him.

NUMBER TEN: TOMBSTONE
I’ve never been the biggest
western fan, but when I first
saw Tombstone I was positively
transfixed. This is by far one of the
manliest and toughest films ever and
features some
unforgettable
performances.
Kurt Russell
stars as Wyatt
Earp while
Val Kilmer
steals every
scene he’s in as
Doc Holliday.
The movie,
released in
1993, is set in
the town of
Tombstone
during the
time when
Earp and
his brothers are sheriffs trying to
keep the rampant renegades from
overrunning the locals. The iconic
showdown at the OK Corral is also
shown in this action packed film.
If you’ve never seen Tombstone
you need to do it today. This
is everything that is good about
the western genre and features
two performances that you are
guaranteed to never forget. Val
Kilmer has always been a favorite
actor of mine and it’s solely because
of his performance here. His
Doc Holliday is among the most
compelling characters ever captured
on film. Russell is also brilliant as
Earp and gives one of his career best
performances.
If you’re not moved
by the powerful
performances and
the plethora of great
gunfights in Tombstone,
then there may be no
hope for you. This
movie is filled to the
brim with amazing
characters, memorable
quotes and high drama.
It is one of the great
western stories ever
told on film. For these
reasons it’s number ten
on my list of top ten
films.

and expresses his feelings not only for Beth,
but also for the many people who wronged him
during his school years. This sets off a chain of
events that cause Dennis and his best friend to
go on the run from Beth’s military drug addict
boyfriend.
One thing that this movie has going for it is its
originality. The whole “nerd in love with head
cheerleader” story has been done to death, but
it’s never been done quite like this. The main
characters in the film are really quirky and odd
and there’s almost a cartoonish feeling to how
over the top sections of this movie are.
Unfortunately, being wacky doesn’t make up
for being sub par and all things considered this is
just a completely sub par movie. Panettiere is flat
and while he’s oddly fun to watch, the unknown
lead actor isn’t all that charismatic either. That
just leaves a series of off the wall situations that
occasionally get a chuckle but rarely get a laugh.
The Verdict: Every once in a while you come
across a movie that isn’t horrible but is just bad
enough to make it one that you can’t really bring
yourself to recommend to anyone. Everything
about this movie has been done way better in
other movies. There’s simply nothing good
enough here to make this one that you’d want to
spend time watching.
There’s also enough questionable content in
this one that it’s probably not even suitable for
the age group for which it’s intended. With
heavy teen drinking and partying and several
sexual situations you may want to check into the
content before allowing your teenagers near this
one.
The main character may love Beth Cooper, but
I can’t imagine anyone else feeling the same way.
Do yourself a favor and “DON’T BOTHER”
seeing this one.
I Love You Beth Cooper is Rated PG-13 for crude
and sexual content, language, some teen drinking
and drug references, and brief violence.

It’s an unfortunate fact to have to admit in
a newspaper read by thousands of people but I
tend to really enjoy teenage comedies. While
most films in the genre are poorly done and go
heavy on the vulgarity, the ones that get the
formula right always appeal to me. So it was
with an anxious sense of hopefulness that I
headed out to see I Love You Beth Cooper. I had
heard great things about the novel, but found
the movie version to be lacking in most of the
things that make teenage comedies great. While
the film was certainly quirky and unique it just
wasn’t very good.
In the film Hayden Panettiere (Heroes) is Beth
Cooper. She’s the head cheerleader and the most
popular girl in school. Dennis Cooverman has
always loved her, but being the nerdiest guy in
school he never had the guts to tell her. While
giving his valedictorian speech at graduation,
Dennis decides to throw caution to the wind

yesteryear.
Such selectivity is
nothing new. We routinely thump melons and lightly squeeze avocados.
(Some even put the squeeze on the Charmin, despite Mr. Whipple’s
chagrin.)
A memory shared by millions is that of Art Linkletter, an
entertainment icon who celebrates his 97th birthday on July 17th….
With two network shows (House Party and People Are Funny) running
for 44 years on network radio and TV, Linkletter was to entertainment
what Walter Cronkite was to network news and what Joe DiMaggio was
to baseball.
The mere mention of his name twinkles our eyes and brightens our
days. His gentle smile, sparkling eyes and patient nature made children
want to crawl up into his lap. He was like a granddad to the kids; they
trusted him. (Few freedoms trump the ones kids feel in saying whatever
crosses their minds.)
Linkletter could easily have chosen a path of bitterness. He was
abandoned at birth in Canada. He and Lois, his wife of 74 years, have
lost three of their five children, only one of whom died of natural causes.
Still, he chose life’s high roads….
I met him once on a college campus some 20 years ago. He was fully
“vimmed and vigored” with his trademark spirit and warm optimism.
Someone asked him how he’d choose to die, if the decision were left
to him. “I love to snow ski,” he answered. “In life’s final seconds, I’d like
to be whizzing down a snowy slope, hoping that my heart would stop
somewhere between the time I’m airborne and before my skis hit the
ground.”
The thought of him makes me yearn to engage more often in
conversations with youngsters, mostly to listen. No matter the topic,
kids, as he’s always noted, still “say the darndest things.” Too bad we
can’t find his musings with youngsters on the airwaves today. However,
we can dip into the bucket of verbiage some kids have offered here lately.
We’ll give ‘em first names. If you choose, insert the names of youngsters
you love. No doubt you’ll recall shenanigans they’ve pulled that make
you smile….
Ben, age 8, itches to go places, then runs around when he gets there.
Hemmed in between his folks high in the bleachers at a recent rodeo, he
wanted to dispose of the final two bites of a hot dog.
His mom pointed to a barrel 50 or so yards away. She watched him
gliding over steps two at a time, then stand motionless for a time at the
barrel. Then, he returned, his hot dog remnant in hand.
“I tried, Mom,” he said, “But I guess that barrel is just for
hamburgers. The sign above it says, ‘No Dogs Allowed.’”
Another “Ben” of the same age has vague understandings about both
allergies and divorce. He does know that his dad is allergic to cats.
Awhile back, he asked if his dad might ever go live some place else.
“If you did,” he asserted, “We could get a cat.”…
Brittin, age 5, told her mom about Bible school week. It was
Thursday night, with one session to go. “We’ve learned a lot about Jesus,
and how we can go to heaven if we do good things and love Him,” she
volunteered.
“And where do you go if you do bad things?” her mother asked.
“I don’t have a clue, Mom,” she responded. “Maybe they’ll cover that
tomorrow.”…
The memory bank of El Paso’s Dr. John Uxer, a retired educator,
is full of deposits from his 40-year career. In the early going, he was
superintendent of schools in Jal, NM.
One day, he stopped by a first-grade classroom. The teacher said,
“Children, our superintendent is visiting our class today.” They
applauded as he scrunched down on one of the little chairs.
When the recess bell rang, one little girl asked, “How many years do
you have to be superintendent before they let you be a teacher?”….
Finally, when Micah was a pre-teen, he decided he wanted to be an
optometrist.
“I have the right name for it,” he claimed. Oh, you’ll want to know
his last name: “Seawright.”
With that, we wish the happiest of birthdays to Mr. Linkletter, and
blessings to all the children of the world.

Another Tale
from an Old Timer
Since the Old Timer Tales have
been on the Internet I have received
letters from many relatives that
I never knew. Recently a distant
cousin sent me a hand written copy
of an ancient uncle’s life story. The
story has many pages and is too
long to print here, but I will quote
enough of it with his own words
and spelling for you to see how life
in north Texas was before the civil
war.
“Here I am in my 81st year,
1933, fat and healthy and happy
as a flower in the May sunshine.
And I want to tell you of the
things I love and of the things that
I remember when I was a child. I
can’t remember the day that I was
born, but I found a record that
on Jan. 22, 1852 there was a big
fat fine boy and Papa and Mama
called me Francis Marion.

am Grandfather of 12 children,

OLD TIMER’S OLD UNCLE MARION JONES
By Norris Chambers
Norris Chambers and his wife Ella
have lived in White Settlement over
60 years. They have raised a family
here and have been active in school,
city and community activities and
organizations and still enjoy being
among the world’s best people.
The
65 Grandchildren, 55 Great
Grandchildren, 4 Great Great
Grandchildren – all told, 136
- 125 living. That is the reason
I love children, and I had a dear
old father and mother that I
loved so well and I remember
running to mama and calling for
some sweet cakes and when dada
would come home I would run
to meet him and get my candy.
My old home was 12 miles north
of Whitesborough and about 18
miles west of Sherman in Grayson
County, Texas and about three
miles from Red River.
This house was the old and new
house made of hewed logs and a
gallery running on the south side
of both houses and the oak and
the ash and the binding elm. You
could see the little fox squirrel as
he hid behind the trees and would
peep around to see you, and the
beautiful quail as they fluttered
in the air. Yes, yes, dear children
and Grandpa and Grandma there
was so much beautiful things to
see…the old gobbler as he strutted
and you could hear him gobble,
gobble. Yes, they were seen in great
droves.
Oh. How much fun was in
finding a full nest of eggs after
father would kill a turkey and
mama would have a baked turkey
for dinner. My choice piece was the
back and the best and all the rest.
Yes, there were lots of deer and
they could be found at any time,
10, 25, 50 or more in a bunch
with their heads lifted high as they
stood looking at you and the little
fawn was such a pretty sight. He
was speckled. O, Dewey, did you
ever see one of these beautiful little
animals?
And there was the fat opossums.
My dear mama could bake a fat
opossum until it was good enough
for the President and there was so
many other things to tell you that
was free to all and there was plenty
for all. Yes, Ila, I will tell you about
the grapes and berries and other
good things to eat and to gather.
There was two kinds of grapes,
the mustang and the little winter
grapes. They growed in clusters.
I well remember gathering grapes
and mama would make a grape
pie and oh! what a time we would
have drinking grape juice. Then
we would go berry hunting and
mama would sure make a black
or strawberry pie. And there was
the dew berry and plums and the
red haw and black haw, And we
was sure to have a big pie because
mama could cook pies and bake
a turkey to perfection. Then in
the fall we had a time gathering
hickory nuts and walnuts and
pecans. There were plenty for all.
Our big farm was about 15 acres
and our other farm was 5 acres,
but we could raise all the corn and
pumpkins that we could use and
all the garden that we needed and
all the watermelons we could eat.
Yes, we raised all the sweet potatoes
and pork as fine eating for a boy
or anyone else. I was next to the
oldest of 7 children. Brother Dave
was the oldest. Some one of you
may ask if I went to school. Yes, I
went about three months in all my
days. I was about nine years old
when I got my first pair of shoes
and my clothes was a long shirt. I
platted some oat straws together
and daddy sewed them together
and made me a straw hat. Yes, I
learned at school to say my speech.
It was how big was Alexandria, Pa
and Old Rover Was The Finest
Dog. That Ever Run a Race and
lots of others. When I come to see
you I will say them for you.
Well, the war came and my
dear mother died and left us seven
children and the youngest boy Jim
was 10 or 15 days old and I was
taken in the house to spin. The
war was in 1861 to 1865 called
the civil war. My father was too
old to serve. We raised our cotton
and picked the seeds out of the
cotton then I spun it to thread
and mother, while she lived, wove
it in to cloth and then made my
long tail shirt. My newest shirt was
my Sunday shirt. Yes sir, I spun
three years. Every day I made my
hank of thread except Sunday we
would gather berries or ride the
year old calves. You see I was nine
years old when mama died and
when I was twelve I could ride
anything that wore hair. Yes, the
bay mare throwed me but the girts
busted and me and the saddle went
together.”
There are many more pages of
this story but I think you will agree
that from the start this old fellow
had fun! Remember that FUN is
everywhere and it is your job to
find it!

WEIGHT A MINUTE

can start today and make a new ending.”

There will always be a fat
girl inside me. No matter how
much weight I lose or how
many miles I run, I will always
and forever deep inside be fat.
Anyone who has ever struggled
with her weight, particularly
women, will know what I mean
with this statement. I am also
not all together sure that this
revelation is negative.
I recently went on a shopping
trip to purchase a couple of
pairs of pants to get me by until
I reach my goal weight. An
important fact to know is that
the last time I went shopping,
I barely fit into a size 18 pants
and never smaller than an extra
large top. I grabbed a couple
size sixteens even though I
felt nearly positive I would be
disappointed when they failed
to fit.
Back in the dressing room
I felt shock set in as the pants
not only buttoned, but barely
stayed up. Like the total sap I
am, I looked up at my mom
with tears in my eyes, and
said “these MUST be marked
wrong!” I soon realized I had
actually dropped quite a few
sizes, and maybe my perception
of my body is not yet matched
up with reality.
My husband is always telling
me that I am not as big as I
think I am, my friends and
family often comment on my
weight loss, and I myself even
see the fewer pounds registering
on the scale. Even with the
evidence I plainly see, when
I look in the mirror, I see a
woman nearly three hundred
pounds. When I teach aerobic
classes, I still feel insecurities
and paranoia that the ladies in
my class must be judging my
size.
Until recently, however, the
strongest part remaining of
my “fat girl” side has been my
vision of food and lifestyle.
Even though I have been eating
healthy and exercising regularly,
I still wanted to eat badly and
lay around on my free time. I
stared longingly at every fast
food restaurant, and envied
people I saw with the freedom
to eat the food I dreamed
about.
Lately though, something
has changed. The times where
I do cave and eat badly or skip

a workout, the gratification I
am expecting no longer exists.
Truthfully, I feel better when I
work out because my body feels
strong and full of energy. Also,
I feel more satisfied from a
well-balanced meal than I ever
do from stuffing my face with
grease and sugar.
I crave exercise and healthy
food now because I have
trained my body and my mind
to take care of my health. Does
this mean it is always fun? Not
by any means, but it does mean
that it is worth it.
When I look in the mirror
now, I try to look past what I
am conditioned to see as fat or
skinny, and just concentrate on
healthy. After all, skinny does
not equal healthy and certainly
does not equal happy.

NEWS AND VIEWS
Page 5 Wednesday, July 15, 2009
Critique the critic
many favorable reviews I’ve given
versus how many unfavorable reviews
I’ve given, but I’d think it’s probably
pretty close to even. Either way, what
I’d like to do is take a few minutes
to examine why mainstream critics
make the recommendations they do
and why I feel like my system for
being a movie critic is superior.
A film critic is always going to be a
bit more judgmental of movies than
the average moviegoer. Sometimes
it’s a subtle amount of judgmentality
and other times its extreme, but in
either case there’s a simple and good
reason for it. They see WAY more
movies than you do.
A study done shows that the
average American goes to the theater
five times per year. Let’s then say
that the average film buff goes four
times as much, seeing twenty movies
at the theater in a year. Then take
into consideration that film critics
see around or over one hundred
movies per year in the theater. My
number last year was approaching
one hundred and I don’t even review
every release!
So yes, the average critic is going
to hate more films and be a bit more
critical of them, but they’re seeing
many more than a regular person.
We don’t just get to go see the great
looking movies, we sometimes have
to suck it up and give two hours of
our life to Norbit. So taking that
into consideration I think you can
understand why a critic is a bit
more judgmental of movies than the
average moviegoer.
That said, there’s one thing that’s
always bothered me about movie
critics. They approach it like a job.
They walk into that theater like
a lawyer walks into a courtroom.
They’ve got a worksheet of bullet
points in their mind to cover.
Cinematography, costumes, art
direction, editing, special effects,
directing, acting and so on and so
forth. As the movie goes on they’re
checking things off, grading things
and analyzing things. Like I said,
they’re doing their jobs.
And I guess that’s what bothered
me about it. There was a local movie
critic who I disagreed with ten times
out of ten. I called him my opposite
critic. If he loved a film I’d skip it,
if he hated it I’d go see it. It was a
simple system he and I had going.
But in one review he really got to me
when his only complaints were highly
technical.
He berated the choice to use
a certain type of camera over
another, ranted about the fact that a
Toronto landmark was visible in the
background of one shot when the
story was supposed to take place in
an American city and was so upset
over one costume that he spent two
paragraphs talking about how bad it
looked. I couldn’t help but wonder
just how that applied to me, the
average moviegoer.
I don’t care about camera type,
one insignificant landmark in the
far background or one questionable
costume and I couldn’t imagine that
continued from page 3
anyone else other than filmmakers
and other movie critics would.
It was with that review fresh in my
mind that I developed my approach
to reviewing movies. Critics walk in
as a professional movie judge, not as
an average moviegoer. I decided to
change that. I don’t keep a mental
checklist as I watch a film. I’m not sure
that I could give you a definition of
cinematography and I guarantee you
that I couldn’t tell you when a movie
that was supposed to be set in New
York had actually filmed on the streets
of Vancouver. But what I can do you
is give a movie fan’s breakdown of a
film. Was it enjoyable? Was the story
good? How were the performances?
Were there any glaring flaws? Those
are questions I try to answer in my
reviews and rarely if ever does editing,
art direction or cinematography come
into it.
The single thing I measure that
I believe sets my system apart and
above most other movie critics is that
of expectation. You see, being an
ultra professional, most movie critics
simply can’t allow themselves to let
expectations come into their reviews.
It’s simply not on their worksheets.
Me, however, judging from more of
an average viewers point, can and do
include expectations into my reviews
and I think they are far more relatable
and complete because of it.
Here’s a recent example. I really
disliked the summer film The
Taking of Pelham 123. It was a bad
movie, hands down. But one of the
reasons it was so bad was because
it failed to live up to expectations.
Tony Scott is a great director who
has done some great work like Top
Gun, Days of Thunder, Crimson Tide,
Enemy of the State and the woefully
under appreciated Déjà Vu. The
guy does action/thrillers amazingly
well and has shown an ability to get
top notch performances out of top
notch talent. So when you see him
make a jittery, jumpy mess of a film
while Denzel Washington and John
Travolta each give one of their all
time most forgettable and uninspired
career performances on top of
a horribly written script, you’re
disappointed.
That movie disappointed me
as a fan, not as a critic. While
there were many critics who
rightfully gave the movie a bad
rating there’s just as many if not
more who applauded it.
Let’s look at another recent
film, the action movie 12 Rounds.
Starring pro wrestler John Cena,
this was a movie that I really
enjoyed. It wasn’t great, wasn’t
genre transcending or inspiring,
but dang it if my friend and I
didn’t have a blast watching it.
One of the main reasons we
could have so much fun was
that we had no expectations for
the film. You’re not expecting
an academy award winning
performance or an original story
and you don’t get one. You get
explosions, car chases, tough
guy comments and some big

stunts. While that added up to a big
fat pile of nothing once the average
critic compiled all of the categories
on his worksheet I enthusiastically
encouraged you to rent this one as
soon as it lands on DVD.
Over the last twenty years less
than half of the films that win the
Oscar for Best Film have made over
150 million dollars. These days 150
million is reachable by just about any
hit film. Of those twenty films only
eight of them made the most money
in their first weekend of release.
Think about that. Twelve of these
movies that critics honored as the
“best” weren’t even good enough to
win out their first weekends. Five of
them didn’t even crack the top five at
the box office on their first weekend
in wide release!
What does this tell us? It tells us that
most movie critics judge film quality
on a level different than the majority
of American moviegoers. That’s one
of the main reasons I stopped using
the “five stars” rating system for my
reviews. So what if a film is three and
a half stars? What does that mean to
you as a moviegoer?
If anything I hope I’ve given you
a bit of insight into how the average
movie critic thinks and also the way
I think when reviewing movies. It
really is of the utmost importance to
always keep in mind that no critic,
even the ones who think they are, is
an expert. They’re giving you their
opinion. Read it, process it and then
decide for yourself if this is a movie
you’d be interested in seeing.
Going to the theater has always
been and continues to be one of my
favorite things and I know I’m not
the only one who has a passion for
it. We’re always glad to hear from
readers and if you want to share your
opinions on any movies you’ve seen
recently we’d love to hear them and
possibly even print them right here
in our paper. You can email them
directly to me at ac@grizzlydetail.

the Crime Board. Being newly elected to
the council, Helen Warner had the choice of
making an appointment to the crime board
and nominated Ron White.
“I don’t think we could ask for a better
person,” Warner said speaking of White.
Council Member Jack Cook stated that
those on the board were doing a fine job and
didn’t need to be removed. When the vote was
taken the motion to appoint White failed with
Warner and Powell voting in favor and with
Cook, Wilson and Hatcher voting against.
“He’s a good citizen and if it’s my choice
then I think it should’ve been approved,”
Warner stated.
“I don’t understand. This is her position.
This is her call,” Council member Powell said.
Warner questioned why the nomination had
been voted against.
“If anyone wants to know why, I’d be happy
to explain it to them privately,” Cook told her.
Warner then made a motion to leave the seat
vacant until she chooses another candidate.
That motion passed.
Mayor Burns also had a position to fill on
the crime board and chose to nominate Stan
Bastek. Powell called into question why Burns
was appointing someone else to the board
after he made a choice already when he was
first elected. Other members of council then
said that any time one of the appointed seats
became vacant the corresponding nominating
individual on the council was able to nominate
a new person. While the city attorney was not
present at the meeting, Powell stated that she
would like to get his opinion on this matter.
Wilson made a motion to appoint the
Mayor’s nominee Stan Bastek onto the Crime
Board. The motion passed with Powell and
Warner dissenting.
Assistant City Manager Linda Ryan presented
another agenda item to the council as she passed
on a request from the Senior Center. A reach in
freezer at their center broke down several weeks
ago.
“We got a bid on repairing it,” Ryan told
the council.
With a $2,580 repair estimate staff looked
into the cost of purchasing a new freezer and
discovered one for around $2,700. While the
freezer is needed for several functions at the
center, it was stated that the seniors’ budget
could not absorb the amount it would take to
repair or replace it. Therefore the request was
made for the council to purchase the freezer
from the City Council Reserves.
Council member Warner made a motion
to approve the purchase of the freezer using
city council reserves. That motion passed
unanimously.
In other business Public Works Director
Randy Brown presented a zoning change request
to the council. This request was made by the
property owner at 7936 Raymond Avenue as
they looked to have the zoning changed from
multi family to single family residential. With
the surrounding properties also zoned single
family residential and with the comprehensive
land use map supporting that use, the Planning
and Zoning committee voted on July 7 to
recommend approval of this item.
A public hearing was held on the matter
but with none present wishing to speak it was
closed. Council member Freta Powell made a
motion to approve the zoning request change
and that motion passed unanimously.
Also before the council last night was the
contract for fleet management and maintenance
operations for fiscal year 2009-2010.
“We only had one bidder come in,” Burnett
told the council.
All Star Fleet Services was the lone bidder.
The company has been the fleet management
and maintenance operations provider for the
past several years and when asked, Burnett
stated that the city had no complaints with
them. Their new bid had a three percent
increase for a total amount of $297,597.
Council member Garry Wilson made a
motion to approve the contract with All
Star Fleet Services and that motion passed
unanimously.
The council also discussed continuing their
agreement for independent audit services with
Patillo, Brown and Hill. The city is required
by Texas Local Government Code to have an
audit done once per fiscal year and city staff

1860s log cabin gets new life

walls for a family home originally
W.S.
built in about 1860.two centuries
ago.
After being moved to Log
Cabin Village in the 1950s, the
two-story structure has served
educational functions as a
historic home setting and a oneroom schoolhouse. It has been
enjoyed by Fort Worth residents
and tourists for almost 50 years.
About the Cabin The Howard
Cabin was built on 320 acres
in Acton, Hood County, for
Hartsford and Louisa N. Howard
and their family.
Full two-story log houses
like the Howard Cabin are rare,
and people who remember the
house when it was at its original
location say that the cabin was
considered to be unusually nice
because it had two stories.
The structure consists of one
large room downstairs and
a steep stairway leading to a
second room upstairs. The
same chimney served fireplaces

downstairs and upstairs.
At one point, new rooms were
added around the existing log
cabin, and the second story was
used as a guest bedroom. When
the cabin was moved to Log
Cabin Village, only the original
log structure was salvaged.
There are differing accounts
about who constructed the cabin.
One story is that slaves built it.
Another source states that the
former slaves only remodeled and
added additional rooms to an
already existing cabin.
Owned and operated by the
City of Fort Worth, Log Cabin
Village is a living history
museum dedicated to collecting,
preserving and interpreting the
social and cultural history of
19th-century Texas. The facility
is at 2100 Log Cabin Village
Lane, across University Drive
from the Fort Worth Zoo.
