Honestly, I'd never even heard of Caitlin Clark until more than a month ago when I was visiting my childhood home and wound up watching the LSU-Iowa game with my father. During the game — the first college basketball game I'd watched ever — my dad pointed out Caitlin Clark and praised her as a star player who'd broken all sorts of records and was bound for the WNBA. Sure enough, he was right, and now it seems I hear about Caitlin Clark all the time — including the controversy of her five-figure salary at the WNBA, which pales in...

Prior to 1964 – the year of the first Mustang’s debut – there was no such thing as a “pony car.” Soon, there were so many of them it was hard to keep track of them. One of them was the Chevy Camaro, which appeared just in time for the 1967 model year. Its time has just run out because GM has pulled the plug – because GM knows a Camaro with a plug is as oxymoronic as Elvis without the voice (and the presence). In a backhanded...
