ERT puts AISD ahead of AED curve nationally Every campus has a life-saving device by mark k. campbell Azle is different. The school district is so proactive in medical emergencies that the AISD is used by a national organization as a positive example of being prepared. Eagle Heights Elementary Nurse Heather Lee said two people locally have been saved by strategically placed Automated External Defibrillators (AED). “With an AED, anybody can save a life,” Lee said. That occurred on an Azle Junior High football field when a player went into full arrest and was revived in September 2011. Last March, Lee was part of the team that resuscitated a workmate who had a cardiac arrest on Eagle Heights Elementary grounds. Earlier, Lee had assembled an Emergency Response Team (ERT) for just such emergencies. If fact, she had just checked and replaced the AED pads the day of the arrest, she said. Lee came to Azle with an extensive medical background. After graduating from Baylor in 2003, she took a turn through a Cardiac Intensive Care Unit. She is also certified in forensics. Lee is a major advocate for AEDs. She said taking immediate action after witnessing a sudden collapse is Eagle Heights Elementary Nurse Heather Lee said Azle is progressive when it comes to utilizing vital. “The most important time is three AEDs.

to five minutes from arrest to shock,” Lee said. “There is a 70 percent survival rate in that time.” But the success rate drops dramatically after that – for every one minute past five, survival chances drop by 10 percent. Nationally, 600 to 1,000 youth cardiac arrests were reported from 2006 to today, she said. In Texas, the number is 97 and only 32 children survived. “That made me so sad,” Lee said. “Why does that happen if we have the tools to prevent it?” A case in 1999 caused a major shift in childhood cardiac care. In Milwaukee, a teen named Adam collapsed and died. To honor him, his mother began a program called Project ADAM – Access to Defibrillators in Adam’s Memory. Slowly, action began that placed AEDs in schools. But that was not enough. “They weren’t doing anybody any good if they were just sitting there, stuck on the wall,” Lee said. So she acted. Lee not only developed an ERT but saw that the group knew how to react and use the machine in emergencies. In 2007, Texas passed a law that said every public school in the state must have an AED.

Early cold snap brings snow

Jay Bird Lane Wreck

November 16 was unique: Snow had never been recorded on that date officially. However, a light dusting arrived that Sunday evening with a reminder that winter is not far away. Falling snow on that date had

not occurred in the 117 years of weather record keeping. The cold snap was one for the books. On Nov. 16, the mark for the lowest high temperature ever recorded, 40 degrees, was tied. It last happened in 1935.

If Nov. 16 was any indication, this winter is shaping up to be a cold one. A dusting of snow fell through the night, coating these flowers in Central Park. Locally, it had never officially snowed on the date, according to Photos by Natalie Gentry A Parker County ESD 1 fire weather service records. engine was involved in an accident with a passenger vehicle while responding to a medical call Tuesday, Nov. 18 around 7:45 a.m. at Hwy. 199 and Jay Bird Lane. Two persons were transported from the scene to area emergency rooms. The accident is under investigation. Personnel on scene theorized that the blinding east morning sun could have been a factor.

AISD AED ERT team a hit Azle ISD expands investment portfolio n AISD, FROM PAGE ONE.

By Natalie Gentry The Azle ISD Board of Trustees voted to expand the districts investment portfolio at the Nov. 17 meeting. The board has chosen to participate in the Texas Cooperative Liquid Assets Securities System (CLASS), an investment trust for local Texas governing entities. The purpose of the Texas CLASS trust is to establish an investment pool through which participants may pool any of their funds in order to preserve

principal, to maintain liquidity of funds, and to maximize yield in accordance with the Public Funds Investment Act, Section 2256.01, Texas Government Code, or other laws of the State. The program is designed to meet the needs of Texas public sector investors. The board voted to approve Rhonda McConnell as the investment officer and to act as a representative for the district under the Trust Agreement for all purposes. Texas CLASS is rated

‘AAAm’ by Standard & Poor’s. This rating demonstrates that the pool has an extremely strong capacity to maintain principal stability and to limit exposure to principal losses due to credit risk. ‘AAAm’ is the highest principal stability fund rating assigned by Standard & Poor’s. This is accomplished through conservative investment practices and strict internal controls. Standard & Poor’s monitors the portfolio on a weekly basis.

In fact, Texas is just one of two states that require them in elementary schools – the rest have AEDs in junior and high schools only. Today, the AISD has AEDs not only in each school but in the bus barn and all field houses, Lee said. But having school personnel knowledgeable was not enough still, Lee thought.

She and the ERT took their concepts to the annual Azle Showcase, an ISD event that thousands of people attend at Azle High School and marvel at what the district is doing. The ERT set up a booth and began educating the general public on AEDs. The battery-powered devices are simple, Lee said. Verbal commands walk even novices through the process. When the ADAM group

heard about Azle’s progressive efforts, they began using Lee’s program as an example of being proactive in saving lives. While the devices are not cheap, Lee said, the $1,500 cost is sometimes covered by grants. In another groundbreaking move, Lee said no student from Azle can graduate without taking at least one CPR course. Lee said she was proud of working in a district that was so supportive of innovation.

In another interview with SPD, Johnson, who is not gay, admitted that he had invited Keahey over to his home. Johnson admitted that he participated in sexual communication on the MeetMe.com website, but said he didn’t think it was “for real.” According to a federal criminal complaint filed in the case, during a recorded jail call Johnson told family members: “I invited this guy over, right, at first it was basically like a joke that went too far and too wrong.” FBI agents – who joined the investigation once it was deemed a possible hate crime – discovered that Johnson had saved Keahey’s phone number in his cellphone under an antigay slur name. The hate crime charges were later dropped. During the plea hearing on June 20, Johnson admitted that he held and confined the victim against his will in order to conceal the violent assault and to removing Keahey’s severely injured body from the home where Johnson was staying. Johnson was sentenced to 183 months in the federal penitentiary.

Azle hosptial earns top safety award again THAZ’s honor No. 4 in a row Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Azle has earned an “A” grade for patient safety for the fourth consecutive year, according to the latest Hospital Safety Scores from The Leapfrog Group. In order to rate hospitals, the organization uses publicly available quality and safety measures, as well as leadership commitment to creating a safe environment for patients. Leapfrog bases the scores on national performance measures from the Leapfrog Hospital Survey, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and the American Hospital Association’s Annual Survey and Health Information Technology Supplement to produce a single letter rank representing a hospital’s performance in keeping patients safe from preventable harm and medical errors. “The score signifies our commitment to consistently placing quality and patient safety at the top of our priority list,”

said Mary Fonville, senior director of quality, patient safety, and risk management at Texas Health Azle. Only about one-third of the 2,520 hospitals scored across the U.S. were ranked “A.” Ten Texas Health Resources hospitals received the top grade, including Texas Health Azle. Individual hospital scores can be viewed at the Hospital Safety Score website at www. hospitalsafetyscore.org. A national advocate for transparency and accountability in health care safety and quality, Texas Health in April published its “Quality and Safety Report to the Community: A Transparent Report Card from Texas Health Resources.” Texas Health was the first health system in Texas and one of only a few in the U.S that is publicly posting quality and safety data based on independent, nationally recognized clinical indicators. Go to www.texashealth.org/ quality-reports to view the report.

Ronald “Carl” Noah died Thursday, Nov. 13, 2014, at Azle Manor following a long and spirited battle with Parkinson’s Disease. A funeral service was held Monday, Nov. 17, at 1 p.m. at The Abbey Church, 10400 Jacksboro Highway, Fort Worth. Interment followed at Ash Creek Cemetery in Azle under the direction of Biggers Funeral Home. Carl was born Feb. 4, 1935 in Fort Worth, the youngest child of Joseph O. and Launa Frances Ellis Noah. He attended the historic Rock School in Azle, where he made lifelong friends. He served two years in the U.S. Navy stationed in San Diego, California. Carl married Tanya Sue Jones in January 1959 and they had two daughters, Carla and Darla. He married Ruth Laverne Mitchell in 1963, and they had Bill and Cindy. Laverne died in January 1987, and Carl married Violet Eleanor Kester Bollinger in

May 2000. He was widely regarded as a radiator mechanic, and also retired from LockheedMartin in 2000 after 23 years as an aircraft assemblyman. Carl also answered to Daddy, Gramps, Mepaw, Grandpa, Rod Man and Uncle Dirty. Carl’s easygoing personality, and sense of humor and adventure were his trademarks. His children were blessed by his kind acceptance and unconditional love for each of them. He became a single dad in 1961 – long before it became popular. He was also a talented artist who loved music and dancing. Anyone who knew Carl knows of his penchant for speed. From dragsters and race cars to classic cars, motorcycles and airplanes, he was never happier than when at the controls of anything with an engine and wheels or wings. He loved to soar above the clouds and watch the sun set from the sky. When Parkinson’s sidelined him, Carl took great pleasure in learning about his ancestors, whom we now know includes too many preachers to count, several Civil War soldiers and at least four Revolutionary War soldiers. Carl was preceded in death by his parents; step-mother, “Mama Bea” Noah; beloved brother, Ellis Bruce Noah; adored sister Velma Noah Rose Springfield; his second wife, Laverne Noah; nephew, Bruce Rose; and grandson, Marcus Daniel Stepich. Survivors include his wife, Elie Noah; children, Carla

Shop local for the holidays: Azle Chamber hosting Small Business Saturday event By Natalie Gentry The Azle Area Chamber of Commerce will be participating in the fifth annual Small Business Saturday, Nov. 29 at 404 Main Street in Azle to support independent businesses in the area. Since its beginning in 2010 Small Business Saturday has been a day to celebrate the small businesses that help shape neighborhoods.

Now in its fifth year, the day has become part of the holiday shopping experience as shoppers, businesses, and public officials unite to show pride in their local economy. On Nov. 29 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., the Azle Area Chamber of Commerce will host a Passport Event where patrons can pick up a $3 “passport” as well as a list of and information on participating small businesses.

As a passport holder, they will receive discounts and gifts with these merchants when shopping. As participants visit the small businesses of their choice from the list they will receive stamp – or sticker or punch – in their “passport.” Then at 5:15 p.m. a closing ceremony will be held at the Chamber Office that includes door prizes for participants who received the required

number of stamps. “The success of this event will be a celebration of a community who knows its own value – who knows one of its most valuable resources are small business owners, those who are its very own people,” said Beth Crowe Executive Director for the Azle Area Chamber of Commerce. “Every penny that is spent with our small businesses is a penny that is invested in the

very development of our economy and an investment in our future and growth,” she said. “Participation in the event means a beautiful gift for grandma, a utility bill paid for the business owner, taxes paid within our city, and money appropriated right back into our local government and economy. “For those of us here at the Chamber, the success of each and every business in Azle

is our honor – which is why Azle’s first annual Small Business Saturday is such a special privilege to introduce to our community this year,” she continued. Area small business owners can learn more about taking part in the event and download free marketing materials at www.shopsmall.com. Patrons can also visit the site to find merchants to shop at on Small Business Saturday.

It’s Never Too Late

Jonelle McDaniel of It’s Never Too Late, has a great Christmas idea...

Azle

Christmas is a blessed holiday, filled with love and laughter – but for many, it is also a season when they overindulge and regret it later. Jonelle McDaniel, personal trainer and owner of It's Never Too Late, encourages you to give this holiday a different tone. Give yourself the gift of fitness. Personal trainer Jonelle McDaniel knows what she’s talking about – in fact, she’s the best possible advertisement for this regimen. She truly practices what she preaches, and it shows. Scientists are still discovering benefits to maintaining fitness throughout your life. Everyone knows exercise and eating right will keep your body fit and help you feel better at any age. But a recent article in the Wall Street Journal cited a study at the University of Illinois/Urbana that physical exercises can also improve your brain function. According to the article, as little as three hours a week of aerobic exercise increased the brain volume of grey matter (connections between neurons); professor Arthur Kramer said in the November issue of The Journal of Gerontology: Medical Sciences that after only three months, the people who exercised had brain volumes three years younger. Clients work with Jonelle in the privacy of her home. She has been a personal trainer for over 30 years and loves the challenge of helping clients reach their fitness potential. In addition to her own motivating skills, Jonelle uses the stabilze ball, BOSU ball, yoga,

pilates, low-impact workouts and free weights that are all tailored to each clients individual needs! The gym is a great place, but it's not for everyone, Jonelle says. Some women are intimidated and are not able to work at a fast pace. "I teach women to work out on their own and with a small amount of equipment," she said. "My ladies are very dedicated and loyal to their workout and me. I like to work one-on-one." McDaniel doesn’t espouse an easy solution to the problem of aging. Smaller portions at meal time and weight-bearing exercise is the only way to achieve real benefits – there is no magic pill or miracle diet. But when you consider the health problems and the medical bills most people encounter as they age, the cost of good nutrition and a personal trainer seems small. Seventy-five percent of illness is caused by a lack of exercise and bad habits. Stress-related illness, high blood pressure and cholesterol, even adult onset diabetes can all be traced back to unhealthy lifestyles. “I can teach you how to change your lifestyle and become a healthier and happier lady,” she says. “You can save money by changing those bad habits.” So ladies, if your Christmas haul includes a few extra dollars, give It's Never Too Late a try. Call Jonelle at home at 817-237-0381 or on her cell at 817-706-0419. It’s Never Too Late to give yourself and your loved ones the best Christmas present ever!

EDITORIAL

Leadership: Somebody’s Hornet nation rising watching…I promise People who question the value of sports – “Why waste money on sports? Kids go to schools for academics!” – or who complain that investing funds into athletic activities is ridiculous need to be reminded of how a student body and administration, and, heck, an entire town can be invigorated by a winning team. Like right now. The Hornet football squad has townsfolk in a tizzy; despite the cold, Azle fans poured into Chisholm Trail High School’s stadium by the thousands to witness firsthand AHS’ bi-district victory over Fort Worth Dunbar last Friday. Everywhere are signs and hashtags exclaiming “Hornet Nation” and there’s constant talk in businesses and restaurants about this team that has tied the record for the most wins in a season by an Azle team. Social media, by kids and adults, is all about the Hornets. That’s what’s fun about small towns. We support the kids no matter what, of course – helping them see that not only does their hard work pay off for them, but they can inspire a school district and an entire populace. Suddenly something mysterious begins to grow, something intangible, something that’s flat-out fun. It hasn’t happened in Azle for years. Remember “Give ‘em Hale” when the Hornet basketball team coached by Robert Hale reached the regional tournament in 2004? The town went crazy. It’s happening again with this year’s crop of football Hornets. Don’t miss out. It’s fun. MKC

’m not a leader!” I have heard that statement from terrified individuals. They were terrified that they would be put in charge of something, or that they would be asked to speak in public, or that they would let everyone down, or that they were simply unqualified. I have an answer for each of those. Being a leader doesn’t mean that you are the organizer or the boss. It may mean that your role is to encourage the organizers and bosses. Being a leader doesn’t require you to be a public speaker. It may mean that your most effective speaking will be private, meaningful conversations. Being a leader doesn’t mean that everyone else is on your shoulders. If you are not holding them up, then it is really not possible to let them down. Being a leader doesn’t mean that you are the most qualified. In fact, that sense of feeling unqualified may be a top characteristic of a GOOD leader because you recognize that you can’t do it all yourself, you need to be part of a great team, and someone is “following” you by observing how you respond to life’s challenges. You may not have an official POSI-

TION of leadership, but you are a LEADER because so m eo n e somewhere is watching you. So, how do you maximize your leadership? I have four suggestions: LIFE MATTERS • Submerse yourself in Gerry Lewis wisdom. For me that begins with the Bible, which I believe to be God’s divinely inspired, completely true, reliable, and trustworthy written revelation of Himself and His purposes. Will you find the specific answer to your every specific question in the Bible? Maybe not. Can you find an eternal and authoritative principle that will help you deal with your question? Absolutely! • Surround yourself with people who elevate you. Business leader Jim Rohn says, “You become the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” That doesn’t mean you should not be involved in a helping

profession or you should avoid your high maintenance family members. That means you should be intentional about carving out time to be with people (either in their presence, or reading their writings) that can help you become the leader you want to be. • Take a follower with you. Just as you need people who can speak powerfully into your life, your “watchers” need you to speak powerfully into theirs. Become the kind of person that is in someone else’s top five. • Guard your heart. How many leaders have lost their influence and credibility due to a “fall?” I am convinced that most of those fallen leaders did not intentionally set out to do the things that led to their demise. Proverbs 4:23 says, “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.” Our lives matter so much to God that He wants to be our heart-guard and our heart-guide as we direct our “watchers’” attention toward Him. Somebody’s watching…I promise. Azle resident Dr. Gerry Lewis is director of missions for the Harvest Baptist Association, which is headquartered in Decatur. He writes a blog at www.drgerrylewis.com.

Letter to the Editor Here’s a tip to finding the best place to worship Dear Editor, First United Methodist Church was recently named Best Place to Worship. My Sunday School class discussed this in our morning class. Although we are very proud of our church and are happy that people like us, we are in the opinion that we are a good place to worship, but we are not the best place to worship. The best place to worship is anywhere you are with God and God’s Word in your mind. That’s the best place! Peggy Eastwood Azle

DAR chapters honor Vietnam veterans on 50th anniversary

eterans Day was last week, and this year marks the 50th anniversary of the beginning of the Vietnam War. Consequently, the 25 chapters of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) in District II (North Texas) commemorated that event with a luncheon at Ridglea Country Club on Saturday, Nov. 8. Other DAR chapters did so as well at the request of the current DAR national President-General Lynn Forney Young, the first national president general of DAR from Texas. She and her husband attended. DAR members from the 25 chapters invited husbands, brothers, etc. who were veterans of the Vietnam War to be honored. Approximately 62 veterans attended the impressive event with 276 people present. Readers may be wondering how this event relates to my column theme of Western history. I've confessed before that I define "the West" very broadly. This week I'm using that definition –

THE

which I have done before. In a global sense, "the West" is the free world. Most of the free democracies exist in Western Europe and in the Western Hemisphere. The big ones, the U.S., Canada and Australia, once were part of the British Empire. We inherited our democratic ideas from our Mother: England. That established, let me return to the dinner honoring the vets. Major Bettye Rodgers, a former nurse who served in Vietnam, told of her activities in caring for injured soldiers and airmen of that conflict. “I knew why I had become a nurse,” she said, “when I could be of service comforting these men.” After her brief speech, Col. Thomas Jerry Curtis told his story. He spent 2,706 days as a prisoner of the Viet Cong. Although isolated in solitary confinement, the American prisoners learned to communicate with men in three adjoining cells by a “tap code” they devised. Knowing they were not alone helped them survive. Col. Curtis' weight dropped to 125 pounds in the situation of hunger, cold and then

summer heat. The prisoners were called in individually for questioning. Determined to give only their required name, rank, serial no. and date of birth, they did that to the best of their abilPAGES FROM ity. “I thought could stand WESTERN Iwhat they were HISTORY dishing out, but found I could J’Nell L. Pate Inot.” One torture was the “rope treatment,” which consisted of putting a rope around both elbows and trying to make them touch in back. The Viet Cong asked each man to write his biography. Col. Curtis said he just made things up, switching around the names of relatives, etc. After five years he got a letter from

his wife. Periodically, they were allowed to exchange a few more. Later they were told to cut down their letters to only seven lines. “I learned to write very small,” he said. Col. Curtis was the senior officer of the POWs with him. This meant he had the responsibility to be a leader and encourage the others. Later, housing changed and he was confined with three other men. Then at another camp 17 men were allowed to interact with each other. They could go outside and exercise. They organized activities to keep busy. They taught each other languages and put on entertainments. They had church services and sang songs, taking turns being the speaker in the worship service. Finally, 200 men were moved north nearly to the border of China and given better food. From censored magazines they got an idea of what was going on in the rest of the world, especially at home. On February 11, 1973 they were issued clothes. The next day they boarded a bus. Later an Air Force

Colonel escorted them to an airplane. The men remained subdued throughout the transfer. The ramp closed; the engines started. “Once in the air, there was absolute bedlam,” Col. Curtis recalled. At Clark AFB in the Philippines they ate steak and eggs, strawberry shortcake and went back for more. The military recorded each man's first telephone call to his wife. Col. Curtis said that he and his wife occasionally listen to it. Following his release, he served until 1977 in the Air Force and then retired after 25 years of service, which began in 1952. He taught high school Spanish and World Geography for twelve years. He and his wife Terry currently live in Temple. On Veteran's Day, from my notes taken at the luncheon, I wrote the rough draft of this column. I felt it was a good way to commemorate the day.

Open spigot: Flow of legislative Not too Swift bills, resolutions begins in Austin anymore, aye?

n Nov. 10, dozens among Texas’ 31 state senators and 150 state representatives, including a few members-elect who won’t be sworn for nearly two months, jumped right in and filed legislative bills in advance of the 84th regular session of the Texas Legislature, which convenes on Tuesday, Jan. 13. In all last week, 316 House and 170 Senate bills, proposed constitutional amendments and commemorative resolutions were filed. These are samples of the subject matter in those early-filed bills: acceptable forms of voter identification, use of a portable wireless communication device while operating a motor vehicle, repeal of the franchise tax, property tax reform, minimum wage increase, changes regarding the offense of student hazing, and free pre-kindergarten in public schools. The bill-filing deadline is the 60th day of the session, March 13. By then, lawmakers likely will have filed more than 10,000 bills and resolutions. In other news, Sen. Glenn Hegar, R-Katy, who was elected state comptroller on Nov. 4, announced he will resign from the Senate effective Dec. 5. Gov. Rick Perry set Dec. 6 as the date for a special election to fill the seat opened by Hegar’s departure. State Rep. Lois Kolkhorst, R-Brenham, is in

Kolkhorst is chair of the House Committee on Public Health and a member of the House Committee on County Affairs. Others candidates for the seat are expected to file declarations soon.

bott on Nov. 11 announced his choice of Cameron County Judge Carlos Cascos as the next Texas secretary of state, to succeed Secretary of State Nandita Berry, who was appointed by Gov. Perry and was sworn into office on Jan. 7. Berry congratulated Cascos, expressed pride in the work she has done over the past year, said she is looking forward to serving out the remainder of her term and then returning to the private sector. Sales tax revenue increases State sales tax revenue in October was $2.41 billion, up 12.9 percent compared to October 2013, Texas Comptroller Susan Combs said in a Nov. 5 news release. Growth in sales tax receipts can be seen across all major economic sectors, Combs said, with notable increases from retail trade and the oil and natural gas-related sectors, plus increased spending by both consumers and businesses. The comptroller’s office will send cities, counties, transit systems and special purpose taxing districts their November local sales tax allocations totaling $723.1 million, up 10.5 percent compared to November 2013. Veteran state reporter and legislative analyst Ed Sterling is member services director for the Texas Press Association, whose 518 member newspapers have combined circulation of 3.7 million.

cluding the fourth quarter yards the Wildcats managed against Azle’s reserves. Hornets intercepted four passes: Dylan Robinson, Zach Petter, Edmundo Lara, and Ramos.

The win moves AHS to the Area round against Burleson. The Elks beat Fort Worth South Hills 37-21. A victory over Burleson will make the 2014 Hornets the winningest squad in Azle foot-

ball history. It will also propel AHS as deep into the playoffs as any Hornet team has ever been, matching the 1996 squad that advanced three rounds deep into the postseason.

ACS headed to state six-man contest again by mark k. campbell Total domination. On a cold, windy Porcupine Stadium turf, Azle Christian School (11-0) – in a game that got delayed for just over an hour to fix the field – punched its return ticket to the state championship game. ACS so ruled over Weatherford Christian School that the Lions never even picked up a first down.

Crusader coach Gary Rushing said, “That is almost unheard of in six-man football.” Azle Christian won 59-6 as the ACS offense got cranked up. QB Joey Rosamond went 15-of-18 for 265 yards and 7 touchdowns. Alex Schardt caught 6 passes for 119 yards and 2 TDs. Also scoring aerial TDs were Alex Coffey, Jake Bartell, Jeremiah Carlson, Josh Crawford,

and Oscar Diaz. The ACS D was air-tight. Rosamond returned an interception for a score. The defense recorded a safety, too. Crawford’s 13 tackles was tops. Bartell added 10. Weather permitting Nov. 22, ASC will face Granbury Cornerstone at Porcupine Stadium at 2 p.m.; an 80 percent chance of rain is predicted which might move the game, Rushing said.

behind a giant 24-point first period. Fulfer (17), Matlock (14), and Berger (10) led the way. The next day, Azle beat Keller Timber Creek 48-40. Dunkerley’s 19 points was tops. Also scoring: Berger (8), Matlock (7), and Aniasco and Fulfer (5).

This is the real second movie with the original makers; it’s not to be confused with Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd in 2003 – which was a dud that still managed to make its paltry $19 million budget back (it made $26.2 million). This official sequel mirrors the juvenile humor of the original – sometimes it’s so stupid you can’t beleive it and other times you’re almost embarrassed that you’re laughing at the onscreen antics. Cinematic comedy covers all tastes. Silent movies were filled with slapstick and some of Charlie Chaplin and Harold Lloyd films remain some of the greatest every made. Sophisticated humor arrived mid-century, filled with rapid wordplay and witty repartee. While dopey comedies occastionally popped up, the lid blew off with Blazing Saddles. No one had ever seen anything like it in 1974; it was so raunchy and crude. And funny. It remains one of the most quoted films of alltime. (“The sherriff is a gong!”) Soon what was rude and juvenile in 1974 was nothing. While Blazing Saddles had just one body function scene – around the campfire, one of the most shocking ever at the time – a slew of gross-out “comedies” began spewing out. Pictures prodding institutions (Animal House [1978] and Caddyshack [1980]) were supplanted by genuis off-color movies – Airplane! (1980) and The Naked Gun )1988) – which were then taken over by raunch:

There’s Something About Mary (1998); American Pie (1999), and Jack*ss: The Movie (2002). Those were followed by the reign of Judd Apatow whose Superbad (2007, MM #732, 2) remains the nadir of recent “comedy.” The original Dumb and Dumber fits nicely along this time line – more stupid than gross but still plenty icky. The sequel jacks up the yuck content; it’s acceptable today, but would’ve made The Philadelphia Story’s Cary Grant pass out in the 1940’s. The plot For 20 years, Harry (Jeff Daniels) has been visiting Lloyd (Jim Carrey) at a convalescent home. Finally, the latter informs the former that he was just faking being incapacitated. Together again, they discover a 20-year-old postcard from Fraida (Kathleen Turner) that says Daniels has a daughter – which comes in handy since he needs a kidney. Carrey and Daniels discover the baby girl was given up by Turner and raised by a rich professor, Dr. Pinchelow (Steve Tom). Now an adult, Penny (Rachel Melvin) is very dopey; still her father wants to send her to represent him at a convention where he will reveal the

Dumb and Dumber To

Aptly titled Starring: Jim Carrey, Jeff Daniels Directed by: Farrelly Bros. Rated PG-13 for: language, grossouts, inappropriate behavior email: movieman@azlenews.net

... on a scale of 1-10

Movie Man greatest invention in mankind’s history, worth billions, encased in a small box. That’s enough to inspire Tom’s gold digger wife Adele (Laurie Holden) and secret cohort Travis (Rob Riggle) to try and knock off Melvin and get that box. Daniels and Carrey bumble their way toward the convention. There, they get quite a shock when it comes to Melvin’s true birth line. And that makes Carrey’s personal sacrifice unnecessary. What works You gotta laud the two leads for being so stupid. While it might not be too out-there for Carrey, Daniels just won an Emmy for his dramatic work

on The Newsroom. They’re so committed to being beyond idiotic that sometimes you can’t help but laugh. Melvin sells the idiot girl part and kudos to Turner for being the butt of a very immoral character. Best of all is Riggle who is the most consistently funny guy in the movie. Some of the sight gags work, but it’s the wordplay that garner the most chuckles: like “water under the fridge” and volunteering at a “leprechaun colony.”

The soundtrack has a Guardians of the Galaxy old school vibe. You gotta smile when you hear Firefall’s classic “Cinderella.” A trio of camouflage scenes is funny – and there’s an end of credits joke worth staying for.

“welp, see you later!”

Best scene Both Daniels and Carrey have daydreams as to how their lives might have turned out differently. Daniels’ is funniest, but both are the highlights of the movie.

Summing up Twenty years later a sequel arrives and plenty of people who liked the original are now 42 instead of 22 and aren’t finding Dumb and Dumber To nearly as funny. Growing up stinks.

Angel Band due in Azle Dec. 7 Greer’s Christmas Tour stops at ACBC, TV special airs in December relationship. A lover of what he calls “the collaborative spirit,” Greer has worked and recorded with the likes of Sandi Patty, Sonya Isaacs, The McCrary Sisters, and Phil Madeira. He’s thrilled, though, that it’s Morgan who’s coming to Azle with him on the Angel Band Christmas Tour. Morgan’s 2014 Grammy nomination for Best Contemporary Christian Song of the Year was for “Hurricane” which she co-wrote with Matt Bonleewe and Natalie Grant. Although it didn’t earn the Grammy, it was the title song on Grant’s 2014 album of the same name. “She’s a legend in Nashville songwriting circles and in Christian music, and she’s celebrated for her artistry, as well,” Greer said of Morgan. “Cindy and I began to notice, in our own neighborhoods, that people were having to make serious choices between keeping the lights on or putting food on their tables,” Greer said. “That’s just not a choice that should have to be made.” But it was in the face of that real need the two friends recognized an opportunity to be grateful for what they have while helping those who don’t have as much. That’s when, in 2012, Hymns For Hunger was born. “We’ve performed more than 75 dates across the United States – including some special performance at Billy Graham’s Library, Samaritan’s Purse, National Religious Broadcaster’s Convention, and Amy Grant’s “Tennessee Weekend,” Greer said. “The tour has raised tens of thousands of dollars and

thousands of pounds of food and clothing items for our neighbors in need across the United States along the way,” he noted. N o w , Greer is excited about returning to his hometown – to visit his parents, Tim and Jane Greer, as well as longtime friends and mentors like June Haptonstall and Connie Deweese, and Cindy Morgan and Azle’s Andrew Greer bring their Angel Band Christmas Tour to Azle at 6 p.m. Dec. high school 7 at The Meeting Place at Ash Creek Baptist Church.

by carla noah stutsman Azle folk will soon have a unique opportunity to fight hunger locally, enjoy world class entertainment in the form of a Christmas concert and – for many – meet up with an old friend. Azle native and 2013 Dove Award-nominated singer-song writer Andrew Greer and his good friend, Cindy Morgan – herself a 12-time Dove Award winner and 2014 Grammy nominee – will bring Greer’s “Angel Band Christmas” Tour to The Meeting Place at Ash Creek Baptist Church at 6 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 7. The tour’s name is a nod to Greer’s critically acclaimed 2013 collaborative album Angel Band: The Christmas Sessions, which reached the Top 10 iTunes mainstream Singer/ Songwriter chart. And while the event is not part of the duo’s Hymns For Hunger Tour, admission can be obtained by bringing nonperishable foods, which will be donated to Azle’s Community Caring Center to help feed those less fortunate in Azle and the surrounding community. “An Andrew Greer Christmas” will be filmed in Nashville Nov. 20, and will air throughout December on TBN. The TV Christmas special will feature Morgan, Point of Grace, Jaci Velasquez, and Nic Gonzales. Greer, a 2000 graduate of Azle High School who earned a bachelor’s degree in music from Nashville’s famed Belmont University, says his friendship with Morgan began with a mutual love for hymns. However, a desire to help hungry people solidified their
