Tennis is my preferred sport for seeming like a Kenan-Flagler Business School student whose daddy has a country club membership. I’ve always considered golf a bore.

In Shakespeare’s version of “Hamlet,” the rub is that once one has shuffled off this mortal coil, they might end up going to hell. In the writer James Ijames’ adaptation of the tale, running at PlayMakers Repertory Company until Feb. 18, the rub is just the spices that go on an old-fashioned Southern barbecue.

I’ve long had a grudging respect for Taylor Swift. After all, few of the artists who were massive stars when I was in first grade are still, 13 years later, releasing popular albums and going on culture-defining tours.

When I was in middle school, my quiz bowl team went to the local history museum, where there was a highly promoted exhibit on Lewis and Clark. While recognizing the role played by Sacagawea and the enslaved man York, I still came away with the impression that explorers of the American West were out-of-this-world figures: firm in purpose, striking in nobility and undaunted in the face of adversity.

Elizabeth Hilborn knew that something was wrong when she saw something strange in the wetland on her central North Carolina fruit farm. After a flood in spring 2017, she said it was eerily silent, with insects dead, frogs quiet and a thick gray muck on the surface of the water.
