JUST ANOTHER GAL FROM CASPER: WHAT I’M READING RIGHT NOW EDITION…                Are you someone who’s just venturing into the Working World? Maybe you’re out of work and needing (hoping, praying) to jump back into the Daily Grind. Maybe you’ve got a job, but it’s not exactly your dream gig. Or maybe you love where you’re […]

JUST ANOTHER GAL FROM CASPER: WHAT I’M WATCHING RIGHT NOW EDITION… Check it out, folks — I’m in love! OK, maybe that phrase is a bit misleading. What I mean is, I’m watching Star Trek: Picard Season 3, and I’m in love with so many things about this show, it’s crazy. Not the least of […]

JUST ANOTHER GAL FROM CASPER: WHAT I’M WATCHING RIGHT NOW EDITION… I love the Daytime Soap Opera genre, but the only one I currently watch is ABC’s General Hospital. I started watching back in the O.G. Supercouple Luke and Laura heyday. Fans called in sick to work, played hooky from school and sat glued to […]

“Good Morning, Vietnam,” released in 1987, is a flick I dig for all sorts of reasons, the main one being a brilliant performance by the legendary Robin Williams. Williams plays airman and radio personality Adrian Cronauer. (Cronauer is based on an actual serviceman/DJ, but most of the movie — and character/s — are fiction.) 

JUST ANOTHER GAL FROM CASPER: WHAT I’M LISTENING TO RIGHT NOW EDITION… I don’t have much of a bucket list. Most times, when I have an amazing experience, I’ll refer to it as something that was “on my bucket list” after the fact. (Notable exception: Watching my awesome friend Pat compete on Jeopardy — in […]

“Everything we do is fueled by the support of our community and donors, and every dollar raised in Wyoming stays in Wyoming,” Jessica Stanbury writes.

“Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in the United States and the second leading cause of cancer deaths,” Anna Allmond writes.

With so many choices for local breweries and drinking establishments, it can be easy to always have just one more drink. What’s important is to hold yourself accountable and know your personal drinking limits.

JUST ANOTHER GAL FROM CASPER: WHAT I’M WATCHING RIGHT NOW EDITION… Paul Rudd. Michael Douglas. Michelle Pfeiffer. Pretty attention-grabbing names, right? How about Evangeline Lilly, Kathryn Newton, Jonathan Majors? Some you’ll know, some you’ll be glad to know after watching the newest Marvel movie, Antman and the Wasp: Quantumania.  Aside from a fabulous cast (although I desperately […]

JUST ANOTHER GAL FROM CASPER: WHAT I’M WATCHING RIGHT NOW EDITION… When Raiders of the Lost Ark was released, my mom and dad had recently split. Once-a-week hang time with dad usually consisted of dinner and movies. But I don’t really remember the flicks we saw together — except for Raiders! The plot, the acting/characters, […]

To be fair, as I’ve admitted before, I’m always watching Star Trek in one form or another. And, since the 3rd and final season of Picard just started on Paramount Plus, I’ve been revisiting some of my favorite episodes from its main source material, Star Trek: The Next Generation.

JUST ANOTHER GAL FROM CASPER: WHAT I’M WATCHING RIGHT NOW EDITION… I can’t remember when I first watched Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead. I know I didn’t see it in the theatre for its 1991 debut. I probably thought it was a dumb title and would be an equally idiotic movie. I also can’t remember […]

JUST ANOTHER GAL FROM CASPER: WHAT I’M READING RIGHT NOW EDITION… Last spring, I read my first Ron Franscell book. It was a true crime story so engaging that I knew it wouldn’t be my last. This New York Times best-selling author (and former Casperite) knows how to keep his readers wanting more! I was […]

JUST ANOTHER GAL FROM CASPER: WHAT I’M WATCHING RIGHT NOW EDITION… “They’re creepy and they’re kooky, mysterious and spooky…”  And they’ve been around forever. Springing from a cartoon in 1938, this “altogether ooky” Addams Family has graced screens small and large for years.  The latest storyline, Netflix’s Wednesday, focuses on the broodiest of the bunch — […]

JUST ANOTHER GAL FROM CASPER: WHAT I’M LISTENING TO RIGHT NOW EDITION… Song covers — people seem to love ’em or hate ’em. I love ’em. In fact, I probably listen to more cover songs than original ones.  Sometimes the original’s great. Sometimes I really don’t like the original, but give that tune a new […]
