Q&A: Spartz reflects on first months in Congress By Jonathan Matthes jonathan@youarecurrent.com U.S. Rep. Victoria Spartz began her first term representing Indiana’s 5th District on Jan. 3. P0LITICS During one for her frequent visits to the district, Current caught up with Spartz for a Q&A interview after she had finished touring the Lawrence PoSpartz lice Dept. headquarters. How has your experience in Washington, D.C., over the last several months differed from your expectations going in? I didn’t have very high expectations. I’m not naïve. I’ve been in politics long enough. It’s unfortunate. Such a serious institution with an important function and it’s become so dysfunctional. I talked to one of the members, Alaska’s Don Young, he’s been there since 1973, he’s the second congressman since Alaska became a state, and I asked him, “Has it always been that bad?” And he says, “It’s never been as bad as it is right now.” H.R. 1 recently passed the House and now is sitting in the Senate. It aims to federalize many of our country’s voting processes. Why did you vote against the bill? H.R. 1 is actually an awful bill. There are a lot of things in that bill that are centralizing more power in the federal government. To think that a small group of people know better and are superior to millions of people on the ground, I would say it is probably the opposite. I think centralizing
To our valued readers: While Current remains exposed to the financial repercussions of the pandemic, we’re pleased to bring some good news on that front. Beginning with this edition, Current in Fishers will be distributed to 50 percent of the audience every other
(an increasing amount of power) is a very bad idea The bill would cause significant change to Indiana’s election laws by federalizing elections and eliminating the voter ID requirement. Do you think the federal government should be involved in how individual states operate their elections? I think it’s more of a state issue than a federal issue. There are a few things that the federal government can look inside, like how we can improve more integrity of the federal elections and just deal with the federal piece. And having IDs, there is nothing wrong with that. We have IDs for everything. You cannot get on the plane without having an ID. The more populations grow, if you don’t have some controls in place, then that creates more opportunity for fraud. Infrastructure is a big agenda item for President Joe Biden, and the bill — American Jobs Plan — is going to cost a lot. What was your take on it? Unfortunately, in the COVID bill, only 10 percent was related to COVID-19. And now in the infrastructure bill, only 6 percent is related to actual infrastructure that people think of — roads and bridges. I think if the president wants to have debate on other issues, we can have a separate debate, but he cannot lump every issue that he wants
to deal with into one bill to try to force everyone to vote for something. It’s one thing, at least, if we spend our money and invest in assets like roads and bridges and tangible infrastructure that’s going to last us. You can justify (to future generations), “OK, you guys are going to take advantage of this.” Instead (we are) spending money to put bandages on issues that have existed for a long time and not resolving them. How do you think our area of Indiana, maybe even Indiana as a whole, matches up with the rest of the country? Are we doing better, worse? We have a lot to offer in this state, and I think it provides us an opportunity to compete with other states. We have good, stable laws. We have a good regulatory environment. We have good schools. We have economic growth and a low tax base. Going around other states, I’ve been very disturbed to see what is happening out there. We have a very efficient operation, and the other states are wasting money left and right, and I feel like my citizens in Indiana have to pay for it? That’s very frustrating. Why should we pay for programs in other states, New York and California, that don’t do a good job? That’s their state. If you don’t like it, move to another state or take down your elected officials.

badly want to restore. Thank you for your understanding as we continue to work to get back to business as usual. Brian Kelly Steve Greenberg President/ Executive Vice Publisher President/GM

Neumann selected to city council
Contact Peterman for all promotion details. Restrictions may apply. 317-296-6922
Jonathan Matthes jonathan@youarecurrent.com Crystal Neumann is the newest member of the Fishers City Council. She was sworn GOVERNMENT in April 26 by Judge Daniel Henke in the same chambers where she will serve as the second Democrat on the council. She looks forward to getting to work. “I definitely want to see a lot more (done) with diversity, equity and inclusion,” Neumann said. “I definitely want to see more transparency and include people. There are a lot of Fishers citizens who want to have a voice and want to be involved, they just don’t know how. We just need to organize them and develop our coalition.” Neumann defeated Chauna Leigh Holder at an April 25 Hamilton County Democratic Party caucus to fill the seat vacated by Samantha DeLong, who is moving to Nevada. The vote tally was kept confidential. “Crystal is a uniquely qualified individual who will serve the residents of Fishers well. We are looking forward to seeing her work alongside fellow Democratic councilor

The opportunity to join the council came early for Neumann, who was looking to run for office in 2023. She received encouragement from her mentor, Christina Hale, to vie for the vacancy. Hale, a Democrat, lost to Victoria Spartz in the 2020 race for the 5th District Congressional seat.

By Jonathan Matthes jonathan@youarecurrent.com Jack MacGregor’s goal was to collect 100 pieces of used baseball equipment to donate to Turn Two for Youth, DONATION a national charity that provides baseball gear to children who cannot afford to purchase their own. MacGregor, an eighth grader at Fishers Middle School, conducted the donation drive for his Eagle Scout project. MacGregor set up shop at Billericay Park for Mudsock Baseball Opening Day on April 24. The community response exceeded his expectations. “The event was tremendous, and Jack is thrilled,” said Jack’s father, Scott. “He received donations of 227 equipment items, and we still have some pickup to do and people (are) still contacting him. I would expect he’ll end up (with more than 250 items). The Mudsock league came through, big time, donating more than 100 bats. But he also had a lot of individual donations — a bat here, a mitt there. It adds up, for sure.” MacGregor’s motivation was to involve something he loved with his pursuit for an

COMEBACK PATIENT OF THE MONTH This is one in a series of case studies of triumph over injury. For previous installments, visit www.methodistsports.com.
BACKGROUND: Michael, 8th grader at Noblesville West Middle school, plays football and baseball both at school and through travel leagues. Since his first injury in 5th grade, Michael has dealt with reoccurring sports related knee injuries. When Michael was first injured, his father, Brandon, knew Michael Bennett is an 8th he wanted to get his son over to Methodist Sports grader at Noblesville West Medicine for an evaluation. Brandon had surgery Middle School performed on his knee at MSM years ago when he was injured in high school sports. Knowing the level of care that he received then, and how smoothly the recovery process was, Brandon got Michael set up at MSM. WHY MSM: “Every experience throughout this process has been fantastic,” said Brandon, Michael’s father. “From the care that he received the moment we walked in, to the treatment by Dr. Ritter and his associates, the surgery at Beltway, to the physical therapy at Finch Creek with Nate and Melissa, it has all been phenomenal!” THE JOURNEY: During his appointment with Dr. Mark Ritter, specialist in orthopedic sports medicine & trauma, Michael was informed that he had a hereditary condition which offset his kneecaps, causing ongoing patella instability. With the need to hold off on surgery until his growth plates were closed, Michael received physical therapy at MSM until the time was right. At a checkup appointment in the fall of 2020, Michael was informed that his growth plates were officially closed, and that it was time to make a tough decision to either keep playing through the pain, or go through with the surgery. Ultimately, Michael decided to have the surgery so that he would be back on the field for summer ball and freshman football. “I thought I would not be able to try out for the Middle School baseball team,” said Michael. “My recovery was so far ahead of schedule I was able to try out for the team and make it.” A surgery that typically takes six to nine months for recovery took Michael only four and a half. “Michael poured dedication and energy into his rehabilitation,” said Dr. Ritter. “He’s returning to the baseball diamond just a few months after his reconstructive surgery. His quick return is a product of his hard work with MSM’s physical therapy staff.” Michael continues to receive physical therapy at MSM’s Finch Creek Noblesville location as he gets back in the swing of things. He has been able to return to doing the things that he loves most - fishing, catching baseballs behind the plate, and being active with friends and family.

Giving back by design By Jonathan Matthes jonathan@youarecurrent.com The challenge that NKBA Indiana presented during its 2021 Student Design Competition for a dozen stuHABITAT FOR dents from Purdue and Ball State universities HUMANITY was to design a kitchen. They were given a floor plan and a list of ideas that a future resident might want. The rest was up to their interior designer’s imagination. The students competed against classmates but also against their rival school. The prize? The winner’s design would be incorporated into a new Habitat for Humanity home in the city of their choice. “It definitely made me pay attention more to the client,” said Lauren Cloonan, a Carmel native and Ball State sophomore. The event was presented by NKBA, or National Kitchen and Bath Association. The NKBA holds national and local competitions. “I chose state (competition) because I knew it was more close to the community, and it’s through Habitat for Humanity family and it’s a small competition as well,” Cloonan said. There were real-life applications, too. That was the aspect that drew Fishers resident and Ball State graduate student Emily Scully to the competition. “It was more of a real experience because designing a kitchen is a lot of effort and a lot of work and I thought that would be helpful in the future,” she said. “Also, using the programs and the technology that we use is called Revit, so it would give me more background experience.” Ball State student Amber Scott of Dale was Ball State’s competition winner. Katlyn Griffin, of Georgetown was Purdue’s winner and the overall winner.

Indiana state health officials urge Hoosiers to get vaccinated for COVID-19 as demand for immunizations PANDEMIC decreases and COVID-19 variants increase. During an April 28 virtual briefing, Indiana State Health Commissioner Dr. Kristina Box said demand for vaccines has declined in the weeks following the state’s move to open eligibility to all residents 16 and older. Because supply is beginning to outpace demand, the Indiana State Dept. of Health is directing vaccination clinics with openings not to require appointments and accept walk-ins, although appointments are still encouraged. The dwindling demand for vaccinations comes after approximately one-third of eligible Indiana residents have been fully vaccinated. As of April 28, a total of 4,114,426 doses had been administered in Indiana, including 2,315,568 first doses. A total of 1,798,858 individuals were fully vaccinated. State health officials also said variants of COVID-19 have increased across the state and account for 31.7 percent of new cases. Box said the ISDH plans to include the prevalence of variants on its coronavirus dashboard, coronavirus.in.gov. State health officials said it’s important for Indiana residents to get vaccinated to slow the spread of new variants, which data suggests are more lethal and spread more easily than original variants. They said data collected from people who have been vaccinated shows residents are significantly more susceptible to the disease if they don’t get vaccinated. “We are seeing the greatest increase in cases right now among people in their 20s and 30s, where our vaccination numbers are significantly lower,” ISDH Chief Medical Officer Lindsay Weaver said. “Since March 1, we saw a 130 percent increase (in cases) in 30- to 39-year-olds and a 93 percent increase in 20- to 29-year-olds.” A statewide hospital census revealed only 2.5 percent of hospitalized COVID-19 patients since March 1 had been fully vaccinated.

Leaders of Fishers Health Dept. reflect on first year amid pandemic By Jonathan Matthes jonathan@youarecurrent.com Indy Lane and Monica Heltz smile on a sunny late April day and as they get in position for a picture. “Tell everyone that we’re vaccinated, so it’s OK if we stand close,” said Lane, laughing. The two women have had plenty of opportunities to become close during the past year. They are the leaders of the Fishers Health Dept., which on April 24 marked its first anniversary. Heltz is the public health director and Lane is the chief medical director. One year ago, they met in Heltz’s backyard to begin work to launch the department near the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. But the meetings were no backyard barbeques; they were fortunate if they found time to eat at all. “We’d be lucky if we could get a Starbucks,” Lane said. A year later, FHD officials are looking back on their accomplishments in the last 12 months and preparing for the future. According to the FHD Data dashboard on the FHD’s website, from April 29, 2020 until April 27, 2021, more than 44,000 people had been tested for COVID-19 in Fishers’ testing centers. Nearly 29,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses had been administered at vaccination centers in Fishers, with 59 percent of the city’s population having received at least one dose. Of the age group at the highest risk of developing severe bouts of COVID-19 (ages 70 and older), more than 7,400 people had been fully vaccinated. Mayor Scott Fadness had already been mulling the idea for the city to create its own health department when the COVID-19 hit Indiana. The pandemic set the process in motion. Fadness found his first leader for the department through a connection to Bryan Mills, president and CEO of Community Health Network, which led to Lane’s hire. “I was tapped on the shoulder to see if I could offer some support,” Lane said. “At that time, the challenge was for the health department’s ability to issue COVID testing, and that was where I was brought in to help facilitate that.
skill set to use and help in this situation, and I live in Fishers.” Heltz and Lane credit the department’s growth to the engagement of other Fishers government agencies. “Coming from a standard health department and not the integrated structure that we have has been something I wasn’t used to,” Heltz said. “I’m not used to having an entire public works team and all the support in the city to put all of their resources behind this effort and make sure that this happens for our citizens.” But the FHD isn’t only dealing with the pandemic. It’s also responsible for investigating animal bites and keeping vacant buildings free of dangerous bacteria, among many other responsibilities. The health department also has tracked more than 30 reportable diseases and tracked Ebola outbreaks in Africa to be ready with protocols in case someone arrives infected from a distant land. “Diseases are going to keep popping up,” Heltz said. “The more agile and ready that we can be to figure out how to combat those things, the better. I hope we don’t have to do this again soon.” ON THE COVER: Inside the Fishers mass vaccination center. Most patients arrive by appointment although walk-ins are accepted. (Photo by Jonathan Matthes)

“I think the mayor’s vision was that if we could get testing up to speed, then one day we could be able to distribute vaccinations, too.” Unlike Lane, who was asked to help, Heltz reached out to the city. She had spent her career in public health and was looking for a new challenge after completing her
doctorate in nursing one year prior through Frontier Nursing University. “I’ve only ever wanted to do public health. Public health is my passion,” Heltz said. “I had been working at Marion County for 10 years and saw that the mayor had started a health department, so it seemed like good timing for me as far as being able to put my
As a whole, the Fishers Health Dept. rates the community’s risk to COVID-19 as significant, but it is on the lower end, nearer to moderate. It has been holding steady at the mark for a few weeks. At the same time, Hamilton County’s positivity rate is 13.3 percent, while the Fishers positivity rate is 8.2 percent. Residents can receive a COVID-19 test from the Fishers Health Dept. in less than a day and get the results in less than two days. Contact tracing moves quickly, less than 24 hours.

Commentary by Terry Anker
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
It is time to get away from it all. The specter of COVID-19 is waning, and the echo of a very tough year is beginning, for many at least, to fade off into the canyon of history. The sun is shining, and the trees again showcase their foliage. Still, the nagging challenges of our daily ritual cast a shadow over us. We need a vacation. Where will we go? For many of those among us, no kids mean footloose choices. For others, we pack the little ones into the truckster and head to all points of the compass. For those whose nest has emptied, perhaps this is the year for the dream trip — long awaited and much imagined. Or maybe, our plans will take us to visit friends and family, always missed but especially longed for during the lockdowns and travel restrictions. Could we go to the lake again, or is it the summer to visit our college roommate who long ago repaired to some small town out west to pursue her fortune? Whatever the destination, we pack up, pull out and decamp. With each mile, our recollection of the domestic stresses of difficult customers and the slowly leaking toilet in the guest bath blur into the distance. We set out for new territory, with new faces and a new attitude. The rules of ordinary life seem more relaxed at some distance from home. Alas, the phone rings, email dings, and text brings us right back to the office. While we are blessed to enjoy the long tether of the modern age, it is just that, a tether, giving us a prolonged leash but never fully setting us free. And we like it, mostly. In a world where we can increasingly be anywhere at any time, will there be need for an oldschool vacation?
That second COVID-19 vaccine is no joke! I recently received mine, and despite my “I’ll be fine” and “Everyone else is weak” proclamations, it was never a real contest. Moderna 1, me 0. I felt so terrible I actually took a sick day! I know! For you non-educators out there, this is tantamount to publicly admitting defeat to your worst enemy in your underwear. You just don’t do it, ever. It’s too much work preparing for a substitute who probably won’t be able to carry out your instructions, anyway, assuming you’re even feeling well enough to pull those worthless plans together. To give you some perspective, I haven’t called in sick in probably seven years, though I’ve certainly been ill enough to warrant it. It’s simply easier to push through. But I knew about 12 hours after “the shot” that my near-perfect attendance was about to be flushed down the toilet. First, the intense chills and body aches hit, followed by a decent fever and a general sense of awfulness. For a brief moment, I thought maybe I could Zoom from home, but then quickly conceded defeat. If I couldn’t summon the strength to watch Netflix or whisper a thank-you to my husband when he thoughtfully brought me ginger ale, how was I supposed to explain the complexities of Reaganomics? No, I would not be doing any form of teaching in my condition. So, I informed the pedagogical powers-that-be, curled up on the couch, and … endured, reminding my pitiful self that this flu-like misery was still far better than contracting COVID-19. Get vaccinated, friends. Even if that second body blow necessitates a sick day. Peace out.

Background checks are nothing more than a false sense of security Editor, In response to (the April 27 letter to the editor by) Mr. Weingarten of Fishers: Background checks for firearms are not what you think. Background checks consist of employment, education, criminal, credit, motor vehicle and license records. None of the criteria highlights whether a customer has good or bad intentions when purchasing a firearm. It is a common misconception that a background check is a huge CIA investigation that
combs through social media. It does not. This check is usually completed in about 30 seconds. According to the FBI Criminal Justice Division, between 1998 and 2014, more 200 million background checks for gun purchases were processed through the FBI’s background check system. Of these, only 0.6 percent were denied. Background checks do not work and are nothing more than a false sense of security. Danny Niederberger, Carmel

Walk the talk Editor, I got a kick out of the Tim Campbell cartoon in the April 27 Current in Carmel. He shows the stimulus checks as “pork.” It would be good to see Campbell publicly walk the talk and send his stimulus check back to the U.S. Treasury. Many of us sneer at the stimulus, but still pocket the checks; deride “socialized” medicine, but still take Medicare. In the 19th century, the great American writer Ralph Waldo Emerson reminded us about hypocrisy: “What you do speaks so loud I cannot hear what you say.” Beverly Thornburg, Carmel

Embrace the great outdoors Commentary by Brose McVey One of the most powerful tools we can employ in a much-needed war against mental illness is dirt cheap, easy to access and universally MENTAL HEALTH accessible. My friends would say I’m biased. They’re right. I love being outdoors, physical labor, the power of sunshine, the sound of a river and birds. I love simple things, like a good hike, the smell of hay and the romance of an old barn. I love working with my hands, the strong back of a horse and a fly-fishing rod. I also believe that God (insert your higher power of choice here) made us to be closely connected to the natural world around us. We do better as a species when we spend time outdoors, break a sweat and get some sunshine. Sadly, too many of today’s young people are walking around with poor social skills or work ethics and not one clue how to change a tire, grow a tomato, fix a leaky faucet or start a campfire. Worse yet, a very high percentage of our youth are, or soon will be, struggling with serious mental health issues. The direct and indirect costs of an exploding mental health crisis in our society, and among our youth, will make COVID-19 pale in comparison and deserves our attention. This issue has a lot of components, but I want to stick to one simple point in this column. One significant cause of our slipping mental health is quite obvious, and we can do something about this one now: We have become a people who are born, raised, educated, work and die indoors. Not so long ago, most humans lived outside cities and their livelihood was pretty closely connected to the land. Today, more

The new Shake Shack at 9701 E 116th St. in the Fishers District opened April 22. The first person got in line at 8:30 a.m. The line eventually grew to about NEW BIZ 70 people for the opening day for what also is the first Shake Shack in Indiana. “We knew (the reception) was going to be big,” said Stuart McLaren, general manager of the Fishers location. “Any time we open a new market, it’s always pretty big. Definitely once we got settled here and saw the Fishers District, saw Fishers, this community, we realized it was going to be even bigger than expected.” Shake Shack began as a hot dog stand in 2001 in New York City. It was part of an effort to rejuvenate Madison Square Park. Twenty years later, the company has nearly 300 locations around the world without franchising. The new Fishers restaurant has a feature no other Shake Shack has. “The most exciting thing about the Fishers Shack is it’s our first new Shack opening with the pickup window Shack Track option for guests,” said Hannah Yoffa, Midwest regional marketing manager. “So, that means you can go on the app and pick ‘drive-up-window.’ You don’t need to get out of your car. You can order your food and you’ll get a text when your food is ready, then you just drive around and pick it up on your way.”

Carmel actors get another shot at ‘A Few Good Men’ By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com A few hours before opening night of Civic Theatre’s production of “A Few Good Men” on March 13, 2020, DRAMA the curtain dropped on the play because of a shutdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, more than a year later, the play returns with Carmel resident Matt Kraft in a leading role of Lt. Daniel Kaffee, a Navy lawyer. “A Few Good Men” runs May 7-22 at the Studio Theater at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. “I think one of the biggest challenges of this role is just memorizing the sheer amount of dialogue my character has, but that’s the best problem I could ever ask for,” said Kraft, a 2009 Carmel High School graduate. “(Playwright) Aaron Sorkin writes incredibly sharp dialogue, so it’s a ton of fun to get to use it in this play. I started going over the script and the lines again about three weeks before rehearsal. It’s actually cool coming back to this story a year later because I see pieces now that I missed the first time.” The play is about the trial of two Marines charged with complicity in the death of a fellow Marine. The play was made into a 1992 movie. “I am so glad to have the chance to finish what we started with this show,” Kraft said. “Everyone at the theater is so fun to hang out with at rehearsal every day, and I can’t wait for audiences to finally see this.” Kraft performed in “Pride and Prejudice” at Civic Theatre in February. Kraft is confident “A Few Good Men” can succeed because of all the challenges involved with juggling that show. “It’s like, ‘Hey, if we can do a Jane Austen adaptation with English accents, masks and basically no live audience, we can definitely do ‘A Few Good Men,’” Kraft said. Jonathan Scoble, a Carmel resident, returns in his role as Lt. Jonathan James Kendrick.
‘Light on the Horizon’ Civic Theatre will present “Light on the Horizon” through May 15 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. Performances are at 7 p.m. May 7-9.

“We were given about a month to rehearse, and with a few new faces in the cast, there was some work to do,” Scoble said. “For me, personally, it took about a week to get my lines back. My character, however, never really went away. He rattled around my subconscious for over a year, hopeful that we would get another chance to perform, and here we are.” Scoble said there are some new considerations as a result of the pandemic. “Mostly in terms of spacing and distancing and such, but we are working through them, almost effortlessly, without diminishing the integrity of the story,” Scoble said. “I would be remiss if I didn’t acknowledge and commend Civic leadership and our director, John Goodson, for how they’ve handled these circumstances.” Scoble’s character is that of a military tough guy. “On the surface, he seems very one-dimensional,” Scoble said. “To some degree, his tough-guy persona is simply an ex-
tension of his commanding officer, Col. Jessup. I believe there is a bit more to him than just that — a bright, articulate, commanding leader with more than a handful of misappropriated, God-fearing tendencies. I have found him to be a relatively dynamic character to portray.” Scoble performed in the summer of 2020 in a lighthearted Shakespeare abridged show for Indy Bard Fest. “With the cancellation of all indoor events, the concept was to bring theater to the community in outdoor spaces, which at the time was deemed safe,” Scoble said. “We managed to book 15 shows all over the state of Indiana from August to October, and although a bit non-traditional, it was very well received and considered a huge success. We were even able to stream the show live online in October, which was then still a novel concept in the community theater space — a production I won’t soon forget.” For more, visit civictheatre.org.

The Stave
The Stave Burger has plenty of pimento cheese to enjoy. (Photo by Anna Skinner)
Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 5711 McCracken Pike, Frankfort, Ky. What to get: The Stave Burger Price: $14 Anna’s take: This is At the Table with Anna’s Bourbon Trail edition. I went on the Bourbon Trail a few weeks ago with my older brother, Matthew, and although there will be a full story in a future edition about which distilleries we tried, what we liked, what to be sure to do, how to arrive at each destination safely, etc., there’s simply too much information for just one story, so I thought I would summarize the food in one of the At the Table with Anna columns. The Stave takes the top spot, although we did eat at several places like Troll Pub Under the Bridge in Louisville and Bourbon on Main in Frankfort. The Stave is a tiny bourbon bar in
Frankfort, Ky., conveniently placed between two of the distilleries we visited (Woodford Reserve and Castle and Key). We sat on the wrap-around porch because it was a gorgeous day. We ordered bourbon cocktails that were made with orange juice and ginger beer, and we both got the Stave Burger ($14). Pimento cheese is apparently a big thing in Kentucky, and this one-third-pound burger was slathered in a house recipe of the stuff. It also had candied pork belly, and pickled onion served on a toasted potato bun. Tip for all backyard grillers: toast your buns. If you find yourself near Frankfort, Ky., stop at The Stave. I do encourage you to call ahead and reserve a spot because Kentucky is a bit behind Indiana on loosening COVID-19 restrictions, and it’s a very small restaurant.
Behind bars: The Cure Get it at Hotel Tango, Zionsville Ingredients: 1.5 oz. gin, .5 oz. cherry liqueur, .75 oz. lemon juice, .75 oz. aquafaba, .75 oz. rosemary-raspberry simple syrup, Rosemary sprig Directions: Dry shake the ingredients, then shake them with ice and double strain into a chilled wine glass. Garnish with a torched rosemary sprig.

Don’t forget your shacket Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt It’s that time of year: is it spring yet? Or is it summer? Wait, is it going to get cold again? What? There’s snow in the forecast this week? Maypril GRAMMAR GUY in central Indiana is like a box of chocolates, assuming that box of chocolates was insane and had a personal vendetta against you and your garden. Enter the shacket. While in New England, a shacket is another name for a yellowjacket or hornet, I’m not talking about flying insects with miniature needles on their butts. No, I’m talking about a piece of clothing that is the hybrid of a shirt and a jacket. It’s a shacket. Picture a thick, slightly oversized flannel shirt for which retailers can charge $130 and you’ll get a good idea of what the shacket is. Is it too cold to go out with just your regular shirt on? Grab a shacket. Is it too warm for your hoodie? Shacket time. In case you’re not following the right Instagram influencers, just know that the shacket is blowing up everyone’s feeds, stories and reels these days. Yes, this year
the shacket is just the clothing item that will get you through this tricky time of the season when Mother Nature decides to hit you with a late frost around the time you’re scheduling your Memorial Day plans. What kind of word is “shacket”? If this were the year 2010, we’d call it a “mashup,” but “Glee” is not on the air anymore. First, “shacket” is a neologism, which is a fancy way of saying “a newly coined word.” More specifically, “shacket” is a type of “word blend” or “portmanteau.” Believe it or not, both of these terms mean the same thing. Whether you call them “word blends” or “portmanteaus,” this type of word is everywhere. From “jorts” (jeans + shorts) to “turducken” (turkey + duck + chicken) the novelty of newly coined word blends — especially in the case of the shacket — makes for a great hashtag.

Story Inn, Story, Ind. (Photo by Don Knebel)
A fascinating little Story Commentary by Don Knebel Many Hoosiers know about the charm of Nashville, Ind. Fewer know about Story, a unique town 13 miles away. TRAVEL In 1851, President Millard Fillmore granted a 173-acre tract of land in southern Brown County to George Story, an Ohio physician attracted to the area by its timber. Dr. Story and his family erected buildings on a cleared site, which became known first as “Storyville,” and then simply as “Story.” Within a few years, the unincorporated village was the largest in the area, including homes, a doctor’s office, a general store, a church, a school, a sawmill, a grist mill, a slaughterhouse and a post office. When the general store, which supplied huckster wagons servicing nearby farms, burned in 1915, the owner replaced it with a larger two-story structure. A second general store was added in the 1920s, the peak of the town’s prosperity. The Great Depression, during which Brown County lost half its population, hit Story hard. The creation of Lake Monroe in 1960, cutting off highway access to the town from Blooming-
ton, furthered its decline. Today, all 14 remaining buildings are operated as Story Inn, a bed and breakfast using the slogan “One inconvenient location since 1851.” The restaurant in the original general store still has Standard Oil crown pumps near the entrance and features stained glass windows, creaky floors, a potbelly stove, rusty farm antiques and the presidential land grant. It is famous for Indiana-inspired gourmet meals. When I ate there last month, the food and service were superb. The five course, prix fixe meal included an egg arpege amuse, featuring poached yolk, trout roe, pickled fennel and matsutake sabayon, and a magnificent caramelized onion soup. Story Inn is near the end of a winding scenic road that runs south from Nashville. The next time you visit Nashville, consider a trip to Story.

DISPATCHES Dusty dashboard — Brush away dashboard dust in no time with a coffee filter, which features lint-free properties. The dust will attach to the filter and catch it, removing it completely. You can use the coffee filters to dust all sorts of parts of your car’s interior, too, such as the shift knob or change holders. Source: Fabulous55.com
Clean shower doors – Tired of cleaning glass shower doors? Treat them with Rain-X. A coating of the stuff on shower doors will allow water to bead up and roll right off, leaving less residue behind. You’ll have to re-treat every few weeks, but it’s still easier than cleaning all that soap scum and gunk off your shower doors. Source: MSN.com
Remove deodorant marks – You’re getting dressed for work in a hurry and notice you’ve got those ugly white deodorant marks on your shirt from pulling it over your head. Grab a used dryer sheet and rub it over the marks and watch them vanish. Make sure you use an old dryer sheet. A new dryer sheet can make extra white marks on your shirt rather than erasing them. Source: MSN.com
Car air freshener – You can create homemade car air fresheners with simple materials in a snap. Take a couple of scented wax cubes and place them in a jar with holes in the lid. On hot days, the wax will melt, scattering the scent throughout your car. You can also use essential oil on a clothespin attached to the air vents for the same effect, especially in the colder months. Source: Fabulous55.com
