Wax worms catch catfish, crappie, panfish during hikes around Topeka

5/30/2018

I had a wild time fishing last week across Topeka.

I decided to start out by walking along Shunga Creek, hoping to see some bass in the deeper spots after the rains we’ve been having.

Review: Arby’s Venison Sandwich is literal spiritual salvation in food form

10/22/2017

Josh Rouse takes a bite out of the most delicious fast food sandwich ever created.

As though created by angels and delivered to my mouth on a lightning bolt of flavor, Arby’s limited-edition Venison Sandwich left me feeling as though I had caught a glimpse of the heavens and all their splendor before being jettisoned back down to the duldrums of reality.

The one-day-only offer of this delectable morsel has come and gone, and I once again must roam the earth longingly, dreaming of the day the delightful deer steak drenched in juniper berry steak sauce and adorned with a light blanket of crispy onions will once again touch my lips.

I received another email about the odd, dog-like creature often seen running around Topeka that has been dubbed “the Kansas Chupacabra” by one reader.

Eric Nordgren, an avid cyclist, said that he cycles almost every day and does between 15K and 20K per year.

Funny video: Shirtless man catches fish in Houston living room after Hurricane Harvey

One family in Houston has found a way to share a moment of levity despite the catastrophic flooding caused by Hurricane Harvey.

With flood waters standing about calf-high in the family’s home, a shirtless man can be seen in several Facebook videos chasing and eventually catching a fish in the living room.

The videos were posted at 1:49 a.m. Sunday by Viviana Saldana with the caption: “Why go out looking for food when the food is coming to our living room?”

Editor’s note: The following short story was submitted to The Topeka Capital-Journal by Ricky Rea, of Chanute, Kan.

Just another day, in my solitude, on the water. Not a fancy boat, but alas, enough for the job at hand. The elusive rock bass I just can’t get to the boat. This rock bass has cost me money, many sleepless nights, no matter what size it is. I have turmoil in my stomach, I have a headache that never goes away.
