Yes, the time has finally come to kiss off 2016 –to put it in the rearview mirror and turn the page to a brand, spanking-new year. Thank goodness! Now, I’m not one of those optimistic fantasizers who think that the end of any year means only better things are in store the following year. History has proven…

I always loved Christmastime in Fresno when I was growing up.

If I had written this piece a few days ago, instead of at 7 p.m. on this Sunday night before the presidential election, my headline would have read, “Trump Will Win.” Because until a few days ago, it seemed as if Hillary Clinton was bleeding votes. FBI Director James Comey’s startling announcement on Oct. 28…
