Kick the habit in the  teeth
There are certain storms
in life that look like they have no end -- certain seas that seem too great
to cross. Addiction to alcohol or other drugs creates just
such personal vistas, but they are false. Believe it when we say
there are blue skies and calm seas if you want to find them. Today, perhaps,

Michael O'Brien Departs This Life: In
November, Michael O'Brien, one of the finest journalists in Oregon, passed
away. Below, find his last three pieces for this magazine, and a
fourth on the subject of small town sports which proves the superlatives
we have used to describe him. He worked for the Tillamook paper for years.
In our opinion none of the far better known "talents" presently working
at the larger metropolitan newspapers in this state have a fraction of
the talent he had. Friday Night Legends, next, is journalism as literature.
