Veteran takes Honor Flight before time runs out

The morning after Max Damer’s Indy Honor Flight, his arm was so tired from shaking hands he literally couldn’t military move it for nearly a day.

“I don’t know how many hands I must have shaken, it must have been close to 500,” he said with a grin. Damer was among 89 veterans on the trip from Indianapolis to Washington, D.C. Sept. 9.

The Honor Flights send veterans from World War II through the Vietnam War to Washington, D.C., to recognize their sacrifices and tour memorials throughout the city. As the Honor Flight website states, “The time to express our thanks to these brave men and women is running out.”

Damer, 93, died Sept. 25.

A week after his Indy Honor Flight, Damer was all smiles at his Zionsville home as he recalled the experience and volunteers who

cared for him during his trip.

“I think it’s important the public knows how dedicated these guys are,” he said of the Indy Honor Flight. “One of them kept calling me ‘Smiley’ because every time she looked at me I was laughing.”

Damer’s favorite part was seeing the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and watching the precision of the guards.

Serving in the military almost wasn’t an

option for Damer. A hernia prevented him from enlisting during World War II. Surgery repaired it and he was drafted in 1948 and sent to Japan as part of the U.S. occupation forces. He was discharged Aug. 17, 1950 and re-enlisted the next day. He joined the Air National Guard and was on activate duty several months later. He was a crew chief for the F-51H, promoted to staff sargent and honorably discharged in 1953.

Damer was humble about his time serving in the armed forces, believing that he didn’t qualify for the Honor Flight because he didn’t serve during “the big fights,” as he put it. But the public disagreed and came out in force to honor him at a surprise party at Plainfield High School when the Honor Flight returned.

“It must have taken me 45 minutes after we arrived at the school because of all these well-wishers lined up,” he said. “It seemed like we were gone much longer than one day.”

What type of sofa is right for me?

®

By RG DECOR zfind us at @RGDecorindy

Have you thought about replacing that old sofa?

Where do you start? Who INTERIOR DESIGN can you trust? The options are endless! So what makes a quality sofa?

3 things: springs, frames and cushions. Quality sofas are handcrafted and each piece must be constructed from the best materials to guarantee it will be free from defects and last a lifetime.

Eclectic, Spirited & Wonderfully comfortable the Maddox sectional by Robin Bruce.

SPRINGS: a heavy gauge steel spring system provide the base for a wonderfully comfortable and long-lasting seat and should be placed 4”-5” apart to withstand the wear and tear that comes from everyday use. What type of spring system does your sofa have?

CUSHIONS: cushion cores should be made with eco-friendly, high-resiliency foam and wrapped with a polyester fiber wrap for surface softness and shape. Down feather jackets are also available. Ask your designer how long is the cushion warranty?

FRAMES: constructed of furniture grade laminates and solid kiln-dried hardwoods must be built to last.

Mortise and tenon, double dowel and corner block construction should be added to provide solid long lasting joints. Ask your retailer does the frame have a lifetime warranty? How are the corners built?

So you’re ready to buy. Look for a store with degreed designers, free interior designer service and clear pricing. Be leary of retailers that offer 50% to 70% sales, you will often be over paying. Look for a retailer that is looking to help you get the right sofa at the best price every day.

Nieshalla gets the tiara

By Desiree Williams news@currentzionsville.com In her first pageant, Zionsville resident Claire Nieshalla was crowned the 2018 Miss Fall Festival Outstandfall festival ing Teen Sept. 17. Nieshalla, 16, received a $500 scholarship from the Zionsville Lions Club.

As Miss Fall Festival, her first official event will be Pumpkins & Hayrides Oct. 22 at Lions Park, where she will judge a costume contest.

“I’m just excited and looking forward to working with the Lions,” she said. “I really appreciate all the roles they play in making Lions Park a beautiful park for all of Zionsville and their service in general.

Nieshalla’s platform was substance abuse prevention. She created the acronym RAIN — Refrain from substance abuse, Acknowledge the consequences, Implement good decisions and Navigate well through life. It lists steps to decrease substance abuse.

“I chose (substance abuse) because it is a prevalent issue not only in Boone County, but also nationwide,” Nieshalla said. “I think it’s important that we realize that it is right

For her talent, Nieshalla played the piano and performed an original song called “RAIN” that told her story of losing a friend to substance abuse. She has been practicing piano since first grade and later began incorporating voice lessons. Nieshalla wants to record her song and make it available to share with the public.

Nieshalla’s next step is to compete for the Miss Indiana Outstanding Teen title in June of 2018 at the Zionsville Performing Arts Center.

Scot and Dawn Pollard of Carmel are both victims of domestic abuse in previous relationships.

(Submitted photo)

Domestic violence may be a taboo subject in Boone County, so victims silently suffer throughout

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com He’s a big man with an even bigger personality.

But behind the inventive hairstyles and colorful interviews, former NBA power forward Scot Pollard was hiding a painful secret. For several years, he cover story was a victim of domestic violence.

“For me to come out and finally say — at my size, 7-feet, 300 pounds — I was physically abused in a former relationship, I would think that anybody could say, ‘Wow, if he can say that, it can happen to anyone,’” he said. “I’ve been to bars and people are scared to attack me because of my size, but I was hit, kicked, slapped, punched, had things thrown at me and things used to hit me in my sleep.”

Pollard, 42, who lives near the Carmel/Zionsville border and played for the Indiana Pacers from 2003 to 2006, may seem an unlikely target, but stories like his are probably more common than most people realize. A 2013 study by the Avon Foundation for Women concludes that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 7 men will experience domestic abuse at some point in their lives.

Domestic violence is more than just physical assaults. It can include emotional, verbal, sexual and financial abuse, and it affects people of all races, incomes and education levels.

tims of domestic violence. Executive Director Pascal Fettig said that Zionsville residents are under-represented among his clients, but not because domestic violence doesn’t happen there.

“Our percentage from (Zionsville) is lower than anywhere else,” he said. “Because it is so close to Indianapolis, Zionsville residents will tend to push more that way, and maybe they’re not quite educated about what Boone County can offer.”

Financially rich, resource poor

Prevail, a Noblesville-based nonprofit that provides services to victims of crime and abuse, reported that slightly more than half of its clients in 2016 had an income of less than $25,000 per year.

But Executive Director Susan Ferguson said victims from wealthy households are under-represented and much less likely to seek support at Prevail or elsewhere, in part because less help is available north of Indianapolis.

Ferguson “There are fewer resources available for victims of domestic violence (in Hamilton County),” Ferguson said. “In Marion County, there are probably at least half a dozen specific service providers. Here, it’s just us.”

Mary-Margaret Sweeney, director of community engagement at Indianapolisbased Domestic Violence Network, said low-income victims are often already connected to social services through public housing or the welfare system. For many Hamilton or Boone county residents who become victims of domestic violence, they Sweeney might not know where to turn.

“If you are that stereotypical Carmel housewife, you don’t have a case manager checking on you,” she said. “It’s easier to hide in a lot of social situations.”

Fettig said that in upper class communities like Zionsville, the topic of domestic violence is sometimes perceived as off limits.

“There’s this stigma that domestic violence and mental health difficulties are bad and nobody needs to know about it,” he said. “It’s almost taboo to say we could potentially have domestic violence in our household.”

Such was the case for Sarah Hutchinson, who was living

in a five-bedroom Zionsville home when she met the man who is now her ex-husband. She described him as romantic and charismatic when they first met, and she didn’t worry when he invested the money from the sale of her house into his properties and combined their bank accounts, making her an “authorized-user” only — signs of potential financial abuse and a desire to control.

During the next few years, the relationship gradually eroded into one of verbal and physical abuse. She pretended everything was fine, wearing sweaters at the country club in June to cover her bruises. But when she began fearing for her life, Hutchinson left with her two special needs children and $20 in her pocket.

“I had always been that mom that was stuffing backpacks for children who couldn’t afford them, then all of a sudden I’m standing (in a shelter) with my children because I didn’t have access to my funds for 12 months,” she said.

Now a Westfield resident, Hutchinson, who received help from Prevail, frequently shares her story to let other victims know there is hope.

“If domestic violence is our dirty little secret, then the perpetrators can do whatever they want and get away with it,” she said.

• Acknowledge that they are in a very difficult and scary situation, be supportive and listen • Be non-judgmental • If they end the relationship, continue to be supportive of them • Encourage them to participate in activities outside of the relationship with family and friends • Help them develop a safety plan • Encourage them to talk to people who can provide help and guidance • Remember that you cannot “rescue” them *Source: The National Domestic Violence Hotline

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and Prevail has created the month-long Go Purple campaign to educate community members on how they can help. In addition to selling various purple products to raise funds and spread awareness, Prevail is highlighting its Bystander Intervention program, which explains techniques for responding to various levels of witnessed abuse, and the 100 Men Campaign, which seeks to identify 100 men who will serve as role models and publicly take a stand against domestic abuse.

Sweeney said community members can assist in many ways, from being available for victims making a difficult transition to thinking about the issue in a new way.

“We make offhand jokes or comments about domestic violence because we think the person in front of us doesn’t experience that, but we don’t ever really know what someone is going through,” she said. “Just because of the car they drive or job they have, chances are you know (victims) even if they don’t tell you about it.”

For those experiencing domestic violence, MHA of Boone County, Prevail and DVN aim to offer victims the help they need, whenever they need it. Leaving an abusive relationship can be emotionally challenging, but that’s also the point when domestic homicide goes up 75 percent, Sweeney said, so victims need to have a thorough plan and support system in place.

Pollard, who is now happily married to a woman who is also a survivor of domestic violence in a previous relationship, said his message to people suffering like he once did is to find a safe way to get out — no matter how hard it might be.

“If you ever want a chance at real happiness, you’ve got to suffer some short-term sadness,” he said. “That’s hard, but it’s short-term sadness that is going to lead to a lifetime where I don’t have to be in a relationship where I’m scared I might get killed or beat up. I sleep a lot better now.”

GET HELP

If you or someone you know in Boone County is experiencing domestic violence, contact Mental Health America of Boone County at 765-482-3020 or visit mentalhealthamericaofboonecounty.com.

MHABC Executive Director Pascal Fettig said victims can also contact local law enforcement, either by dialing 911 or the non-emergency line — depending on the situation — to seek assistance and connect with resources.

“Boone County has the strongest and most compassionate law enforcement, from the sheriff to Zionsville to Lebanon to Jamestown to Thorntown police departments (in the state),” he said.

justice for all For Scot Pollard, the decision to share his painful past is a search for justice — for himself and other men.

Not only is it extremely difficult for men to admit that they’ve been victims of domestic violence because of the male ego, he said, but the legal system doesn’t treat them the same way it treats women who have suffered abuse.

“If I had done what was done to me, I’d have done serious jail time, and rightfully so,” he said.

Pollard said he called the police twice to report being physically abused. One incident led to his alleged abuser spending two nights in jail, although Pollard ended up dropping the charges. The second time, when he finally decided to end the relationship, he was the one who left the home, not his ex. They have joint custody of their three children, and that’s strained his relationship with his kids, he said, and forced him to remain in Hamilton County.

Pollard admits that his former relationship was fraught with problems. In speaking out about the domestic abuse, he said he also wants to come clean about his infidelity — with former neighbors and others — that contributed to the issues. He met his current wife, Dawn, when he was cheating on his ex, and he believes infidelity is another issue that is all too often swept under the rug in affluent communities.

But neither unfaithfulness nor any other problems give anyone the right to physically harm their partner, Pollard said.

“There are issues in every relationship that can give somebody an excuse to behave a certain way. Everyone has their own coping mechanisms,” he said. “It’s never OK to be violent. It’s just not.”

No Starbucks for parenting

o b s e r v a tion

Better living

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Commentary by Terry Anker Although we all interact with it in almost every aspect of our lives, we rarely stop to take it in. Even if we catch a breath and look around, do we really see what’s there – and perhaps, more importantly, what’s intentionally not there? We could call it the built world. The buildings, landscapes, homes, roadways and all things formed by human hand. As we blithely move from one space to the next, we seldom imagine the intent of those behind the design. Was theirs an entirely practical effort? Or, did they choose the aesthetic? Did they mean to move us to some sort of feeling? Or, did they simply hope to move us from our car to their cash register with minimal effort?

Ours is a blended home. Child, parent and grandparent all share a single space.

Yet each finds his or her own retreat. Sight lines, noise and foot traffic were all considered in its plan. Most wouldn’t notice, yet the effect is surprising. At the office, we blend various functions and personalities into a cohesive and engaging edifice.

We spend a lot of time within the confines of where we toil. Why shouldn’t it be as thoughtfully considered as where we sleep?

Can’t we prepare a place that is simultaneously serviceable and good for the spirit?

Let’s call it better living through architecture. Our surroundings can calm, lift and inspire. Just as quickly, they can irritate, unsettle and provoke. Can a color of paint raise income or lower stress? Perhaps. But ask if a properly arranged environment can increase productivity and satisfaction.

Do we love where we spend our time?

Does it encourage us to be happy? If not, maybe, we should fix it.

Something special about small towns Commentary by Ward Degler I spent a good chunk of my youth growing up in small towns. There is something special about these places that has become lost in plain talk the city.

A small town’s personality is tangible and palpable as you drive through the streets. Its history can be read on every corner, from the neglected building that started out as a blacksmith shop, then became a gas station and ultimately spent a few years as a tire store before being locked up and left to the sparrows that nest in the eaves; to the house that saw seven generations of one family grow up and move out into the world before being purchased by a young couple who just arrived from another state.

In the city the blacksmith shop would have been torn down years ago. A Dairy Queen would have been built on the land, and no one would remember the smithy who spent long, tiring days at his forge, or the gas station attendant who saved enough money to send his son to college, or the one-armed man who ran the tire store and confounded everyone with his ability to change a tire using only one arm.

Building codes are stricter in the city, of course, so many of the buildings and houses look alike. Folks living in small towns built their houses in ways that suited them. Some were brick, others shiplap frame. A few prefab homes appeared during the housing shortage at the end of World War II. Some thrifty folks used concrete blocks. And nobody cared that the old Sassman house on the corner still had the same 60-amp fuse box and knob and tube wiring that was installed in 1920.

You pretty much knew everybody in town, too, and you understood what to expect from them. Wally at the barbershop never did haircuts after 3 p.m. because he volunteered as a softball coach at the grade school part time.

When we started building super highways across our nation, folks feared small towns would dry up and blow away. They were wrong about that. They are still there, and their stories are still worth noting.

Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife. He is author of “The Dark Ages of My Youth ... and Times More Recent.” Contact him at ward.degler@gmail.com.

I had a breakthrough in therapy! And by therapy, I mean margaritas with my sisters-in-law. We figured out humor the reason we all prefer to be at work rather than home: We know we’re good at our jobs, but we’re not so sure about this parenting thing.

Case in point, me. I arrive at school at least an hour ahead of time, and if I didn’t have to drive a kid to dance, guard, work, fishing club or violin, I’d probably stay for an hour after. I keep a colorful but organized classroom, am knowledgeable in my content area and on occasion receive Starbucks for my successes. I truly love teaching.

But when I swap that hat for my mom hat, all confidence goes out the window.

Have I been poisoning my children with hormone-laced milk and Kraft preservatives? Am I creating socially inept teenagers by allowing constant access to their Samsungs? Why do I feel so guilty grounding a son for his grades? How did he even get to that point? What if my college freshman starts shooting meth? These are the anxieties that plague me from the moment I walk into my house. It’s exhausting. Add in the physical state of said house, which currently includes an infestation of fruit flies, and you begin to understand my feelings of maternal ineptitude.

Mothers get no accolades, no pats on the back and rarely thank-you gifts of coffee.

And the worst part is, children suck at providing feedback, so we won’t know if we did a good job until it’s too late. This is why I prefer work. And lots of therapy.

Peace out.

The truth about lying Commentary by Dick Wolfsie I’m a liar. A no-good, rotten liar. This became obvious to me when I wrote a column about vacationing in Banff, humor Canada (that location was accurate). I related how I sent my digital camera through the security scanner (totally factual). And how it was stolen when I left it behind in the tray (correct, again).

I had the best intentions of simply writing about how careless I am with my things. Basically, what a loser I am. But when I got back from the trip I ran into my neighbor, George.

“How was your trip, Dick?” he asked.

“Oh, it was fantastic—except my camera was stolen.”

“What a shame. And with all your photos, huh?”

“It’s OK—the thief emailed me the pictures.”

I don’t know where that crazy idea came from. It just slid out of my mouth. It wasn’t an exaggeration, it was a bold-faced fabrication. With that, George got hysterical.

And I’m so addicted to hearing the sound of people laughing at stuff I say and do, I left

it at that.

When I sat down that night to write my weekly column, I actually started to believe the whole thing myself. If you repeat something enough times, you start thinking it’s true. Just ask any politician.

In my column, I even included a bogus email from the thief who supposedly stole my camera. I had already entered the dark side—why not get a few additional laughs in the process?

After the column was published, I received this email: Dear Dick, Witty as always. We love the honesty in your writing.

The guilt is killing me. I just hope the person who stole my camera reads this column and has the decency to actually email me my pictures. I don’t care about the stupid photos; I just want to be an honest man again.

Crossfit challenge benefits vets

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com While working on his master’s degree at The Citadel in international politics and military affairs, Christian giving back Simon was surrounded by military personnel at the Charleston, S.C., college.

“Getting to know their personal stories and what they endured throughout their time in Iraq and Afghanistan was absolutely incredible,” said Simon, a 2012 Zionsville Community High School graduate. “They also told me about suffering from PTSD.” Simon said his parents taught him to have great respect for veterans.

“I thought at some point, I’d like to give back to these veterans,” he said.

Simon decided to raise money for the PTSD Foundation of America by contributing $30 personally for each CrossFit challenge he completed in a 24-hour period at the Fitness Garage in Carmel. Simon raised $4,125 by completing 12 rounds through personal and other donations.

Simon had seen a YouTube video of a 59-year-old man completing a “Murph,” named for Navy Seal Lt. Michael Murphy, who received the Medal of Honor for his

From 9 a.m. Sept. 6 to 9 a.m. Sept. 7, Simon’s “Murph” routine consisted of a 1-mile run, 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 squats and another 1-mile run at the end.

The totals were 24 miles run, 1,200 pullups, 2,400 push-ups and 3,600 squats.

“As much pain as you go through, you realize people that suffer from PTSD go through so much more every single day,” Simon said.

Hymes ready to launch new era for CSO as first female conductor

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

When Janna Hymes first started interviewing to become a music director of symphony orchestras, it was rare.

“There just weren’t a lot of women doing it, and it was always a novelty,” Hymes said. “Every time I interviewed it would come up and it was the focus. Now, there are so many young conductors coming out of schools. There are workshops for female conductors, and I’m teaching one in New York. It’s really amazing that a lot of women now are making this their career and are very successful. It’s still a very, very small amount of women compared to the guys. There is still a glass ceiling there.”

Hymes was named the Carmel Symphony Orchestra’s first female music director and seventh overall in its 42-year history in May following a national search. She was one of three who served as guest conductors during the selection process.

She will make her debut with CSO when it presents the Clay Township Orchestral Showcase at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 14 at The Palladium in Carmel.

The New York City native, who lives in Maine, conducts the Williamsburg (Va.) Symphony and the Maine Pro Musica Orchestra, which she founded in 2008. But CSO is her priority.

“This is a very exciting time for me, personally,” Hymes said.

“I can’t wait to work with the orchestra again. What we did over the summer is really put some finishing touches on some programming.”

Hymes, who concluded a three-year stint as the Indianapolis

Symphony Orchestra associate conductor in 2000, said she has been working on fundraising events and looking at CSO’s future.

“I’ve been listening to board members talk about the history and talking about where we might go in the future,” Hymes said. “A lot of it is a learning curve for me.”

One change Hymes made after taking over is adjusting the February 2018 program.

Janna Hymes was named the “I wasn’t sure the pieces Carmel Symphony Orchestra’s really meshed well together,” first female music director.

Hymes said. “The music of (Submitted photo) (Aaron) Copland’s ‘Billy the Kid’ was on it, and I felt that’s a very visual piece. It’s a ballet. When I was studying the music this summer to perform it, I felt it was hard to stand alone without the visual in your head. So we changed the program around to play Howard Hanson’s Symphony No. 2, the ‘Romantic,’ which is perfect because it’s four days before Valentine’s Day.” Another change is that Hymes will conduct the Holiday concert Dec. 9, which wasn’t originally the plan.

“I’m really excited because we have two of the singers who took part in and won the Songbook Academy Youth Ambassador competition, Julia Bonnet and Lucas DeBard,” she said. “I’m really excited to collaborate with them and be more related to the Great American Songbook.”

The only CSO concert Hymes will not conduct is April 14, 2018, because of a prior commitment. Charles Prince will serve as guest conductor.

Hymes, who has two grown sons, said she will have complete involvement in the 2018-19 schedule.

Pizza at a tailgate, why not?

Commentary by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley Using the most recent estimates from the American Community Survey and Dunn and Bradstreet, we’ve discovered the most popular food in every state. The food type with the highest density per 100,000 people is considered the most popular. Pizza is the fan-favorite in all states that our column is published (Oklahoma to Ohio).

So why can’t we make pizza at our tailgate parties? Besides a grill with a lid, the only equipment you’ll need is a pizza stone and a peel.

Tailgate Pizza Ingredients: • 4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour • 1 package dry active yeast • 1/2 cup olive oil • 1 teaspoon sugar • 1 teaspoon sea salt • 1 3/4 lbs. whole milk (not skimmed) mozzarella cheese • 1 jar favorite pizza sauce • 1/2 onion chopped • 1 green pepper chopped • 1 can ripe olives sliced in half • 1 lb. sweet Italian sausage ground and well browned • Ground Oregano and Basil to spice Preparation: before - Proof the yeast in 1 cup warm water. In a large mixing bowl mix the flour, salt and sugar; then add the yeast water mixture and the oil. With your hands, knead flour and liquid mixture into springy dough. Knead the dough at least 5 minutes and as much as 15 if you have the strength.

Then place a bit of oil in the mixing bowl make the dough into a ball. Cover bowl with clear wrap and refrigerate 24-48 hours.

Game day morning - Take the dough out and let it sit for 1 hour at room temperature.

Then cut the ball into four pieces and roll each into a small ball and let them sit under a clean dish towel while you prep things for your trip to the game. Lastly, pack the dough balls with a 1-inch separation into a container for your trip to the game.

Pizza can be a fan-favorite at tailgates.

(Submitted photos)

At the Tailgate - Heat your grill at least 30 minutes until the temperature of the stone is 450-500 degrees. Flour a cutting board and place a dough ball on it. Spread the dough out into a circle. You can use a rolling pin or air-toss, if you want. Place some corn meal on the peel and then the dough circle on top. Spread evenly 2 tablespoons of sauce on the dough and then slices of your cheese to cover the dough. Add a little of the sausage and a small amount of the other toppings of your choice. You’ll add more as the pie is cooking on the stone. Make sure the dough slides on the corn meal so it is easy to transfer to the stone for cooking.

Slide the dough onto the stone and close the lid to keep the heat in. After 1 minute, quickly add more sausage and other toppings. Also, place dollops of sauce in key areas of your pie. It’s safer to add more toppings when the pie crust is firming up on the stone. The pie will be ready to remove to the cutting board in 5 to 10 minutes. Just check the crust before removing it. Serves 4 to 6 people.

St. Augustine: America’s oldest settlement Commentary by Don Knebel St. Augustine, Florida, founded in 1565, claims to be the oldest continuously inhabited settlement in the United travel States. It is not. That honor goes to a settlement in New Mexico that is 200 years older.

In approximately 1300 A.D., an indigenous people called the Ancestral Puebloans began moving south from what is now the Four Corners region of the United States, perhaps because of a major drought. Following the Rio Grande River, some of them settled just north of what is now Taos, New Mexico, in sight of the Sangre de Christo Mountains.

Beginning in about 1350, they built multistory adobe buildings called pueblos on both sides of a creek. Each pueblo, a Spanish term for village, contained dozens of individual apartments, with the upper levels reached by ladders. In 1541, soldiers under Francisco Vasquez de Coronado, looking for the fabled seven golden cities of Cibola, reported finding the Taos pueblos but no gold. In 1680, the Taos pueblos were at the center of a sophisticated revolt, including nearby pueblos, that temporarily drove the Spanish from New Mexico. In 1847, residents

of the Taos pueblos again revolted, this time against the United States. The rebellion was unsuccessful and the rebels were hung in the plaza.

Today, the Taos Pueblo, a UNESCO World Heritage site containing both original pueblos, lies within a 95,000-acre reservation that is home to approximately 4,500 people, who speak English in addition to their native Tiwa language. Approximately 150 residents continue to live in the ancient pueblos. A few of the apartments, now ac-

cessible by stairs, are used as shops by their owners, some of whom are willing to show visitors through their apartments and talk about their history and culture. As we prepare to celebrate Columbus Day, it is useful to remember the Taos Pueblo.

Sure, it’s easy to distinguish lace from lice and lake from like, but what’s the difference between lay grammar guy and lie? When I say “lie” in this article, I’m not referring to the act that causes Pinocchio’s nose to grow; I’m talking about when someone reclines.

The quick answer to this confusing conundrum is this: lay requires a direct object while lie does not. You lie down in the fetal position sucking your thumb when you’re super-stressed watching a Colts game. You lay down a brass unicorn paperweight on important papers so your office’s industrial-strength air conditioner doesn’t whoosh them away and risk paper-cutting your entire department.

Allow me to lay down a few examples: King Lear lays his lyre down on the linoleum landing of his lopsided lake lair. In this case, “lyre” is the direct object, so lay is correct.

Lance lies lazily in his limo, lunching on Lay’s and listening to Lyle Lovett’s lavish lyrics. Lance lies down on his own, while Lear lays the direct object (his lyre) down.

Now it gets complicated; the past tense of lie is lay, while the past tense of lay is laid. So, you could correctly say: John Lennon lay down on the floor while he laid down the lead vocal track to “Revolution 1.”

The English language strikes again.

While on vacation in Hawaii, Linus laid a lei on Elaine while she lay on the beach.

You can lie about laying down your laser while you lie on the loveseat in your lounge.

It’s a wonder anyone learns to speak English as a second language. We often assume and expect others to possess a mastery of the English language while its rules are ridiculously complicated.

To take a “Hamilton” quote out of context, sometimes I feel English is “such a blunder, sometimes it makes me wonder why I even bring the thunder.” Yet our language’s seemingly contradictory rules awaken our inner-word nerds and cause us to lie in bed while we dream about the truth.
