Cortland, NY — The Habitat for Humanity of Tompkins and Cortland Counties (TCHFH) Board of Directors unanimously approved the newest Habitat Partner Family, The Hutchings, for the next Cortland build. Chad Hutchings, Courtney Stark, and Emma Hutchings, 5 years-old, will live in a new single-family home to be built by volunteers on 33 Arthur Avenue. Construction is slated to begin this spring.
“Everyone at our organization is so excited about partnering with the Hutchings Family,” says executive director Christy Voytko, “Habitat’s Family Selection Committee met the family first and enthusiastically recommended them to the Board to be selected for this build. Last Monday, the Board had the opportunity to meet them. Emma, who completed her 100th day of school that day, took charge and decided to write all of the Board Member’s nametags while Courtney and Chad helped her sound out everyone’s name. It was obvious that they are a family that supports one another.”

For those of us who have been disappointed in global warming this winter, the cold spell has brought at least one unusual discovery. This rather large frozen stegosaurus was spotted in front of the Leathers/Cundy residence in Lansing the other day. While some scientists think dinosaurs became extinct because of a severe ice age, it is clear that this cold winter has brought at least one back.

SMART TALK
by Dr. Ced Riley
MENTAL TELEPATHY: Come on,
people, would you say nasal telepathy?
Manual? Gastro-intestinal?
Of course not, so just call
it telepathy.
Some patients at the Institute
for the Linguistically Impaired, as well as Chief Johnson of the local Underbelly, Texas, police department,
say that all telepaths are mentally
insane.
By saying that, they weaken
their argument, since they forget that one can't be anally insane. Unless one
is very, very neat, I suppose.
It all depends on your mental attitude.

The Habitat For Humanity house on Breed Road in Lansing is scheduled to be completed before the end of next month. While construction got off to a slow start, work on the house has been progressing through the winter to the point where Habitat officials say the family will be able to move into the house in April.
"The exterior completely finished," says Habitat for Humanity of Tompkins and Cortland Counties Board of Directors President Angela Loh. "The dry wall is up. What's next is the mudding, sanding, and painting. The floors and cabinets are all waiting to be put in. Bumblebee Painters is donating their painting services, so it will be primed and painted very quickly. One, two, three and it's going to be done."
