Behind him illuminated his signature logo of a curved black bat surrounded by a yellow oval. Why is he here in our City of Hammond? Perhaps Batman has seen the advertisement for the Columbia Theatre’s upcoming Gotham Nights event. Planned for this September, Oswald Cobblepot is throwing a gala.

The definition of labor is work
When I was a child, I longed for the Labor Day barbecues and cookouts that seemed to be happening everywhere except at our house. I wanted hot dogs, hamburgers, a cold drink and all the things I thought people were supposed to have on a holiday. But my mother had a very different interpretation of Labor Day. She would say, “The definition of labor is work.” And in our house, she meant it. We did not buy extra food just because it was Labor Day.

Corruption thrives when character becomes optional
Thirty-five years ago at Mississippi State University, I took a class on ethics. I still have the textbook. That may seem an odd thing to keep for three-plus decades. College books are usually sold, donated, misplaced or condemned to a dusty box in the attic. But I kept that one because ethics is not some academic ornament — a collection of theories to be memorized for an examination and forgotten by Christmas. Ethics is the foundation upon which public trust rests.
