Sorry for the delay
Posted Wednesday, October 29, at 11:38 PM
Sorry to all two of you out there who are kind enough to read my blog. I realize it has been a very long time since I have made an entry.
Frankly, things have been kind of crazy and I have lacked for things to write about. That is still the case tonight, but I thought I should at least make an entry or face the wrath of my superiors. Just kidding. Really I do feel bad about not making an entry, but as I've said before, I like to write when I have something intelligent to say, and lately that hasn't been the case. With all of that said, I hope everyone out there is doing okay. It's hard to believe October is just about over and soon the first snow flakes will fly. Brrr! Well, I guess that's all for now. I'll try to write again soon.
Did you see it? Something extraordinary, exciting and special happened this past weekend, and I was wondering if anyone else noticed it. In the hustle and bustle of life, it would be easy to move through a weekend like we just had without taking notice of its beauty. Some of the most picture perfect weather happens not in the summer, but in the fall and winter...
Roller Derby King I was surfing through YouTube videos the other night and came across one that sparked a fond childhood memory for me. The video was titled simply "The chicken dance song," but as soon as I clicked the "play" button, I was instantly transported back to the 1980s and the roller-skating rink where I spent a fair amount of time as a boy...
Stop lying to us Gas prices in Greencastle rose 40 cents today. They were at $3.55 a gallon on Monday and by Tuesday afternoon, many stations had jacked the price up to $3.95. There isn't a whole lot to say about that and it certainly does no good to ask why. Hey gas companies: I've heard all your excuses and frankly I don't believe them anymore. Actually I never did...
Squirrel crossing I saw the funniest thing while I was driving through downtown Greencastle Wednesday evening. I was waiting for the stoplight at the corner of Jackson and Washington streets (southwest corner of the courthouse) to turn green. There was another car in front of me and it was also waiting to turn...
Summer is fleeting. Have some lemonade Does anyone remember the old Country Time Lemonade commercials? They always started with a soft-spoken narrator reminding us that the warm, sunny days of summer are fleeting and we should all take time to enjoy a nice, tall glass of lemonade? They usually showed someone walking on top of fence or riding a bike off into the sunset -- just because...
Saddened by Sandy's death This entry isn't going to be very long. I just wanted to say that I was sad to here that Sandy Allen, the "World's Tallest Woman," has died at the age of 53. The Associated Press reported that the cause of her death has not been determined but that she had been hospitalized in recent months...
Bullying: a case of boys will be boys? The Oprah Show today featured the tragic story of a two young men who were once on youth baseball teams -- one of them is now dead and one is in prison, convicted of the other's murder. From what I gathered, there was apparently a conflict between the two on the baseball field one day and the one boy became angry and struck the other one with a baseball bat, killing him...
Go see Mamma Mia I went and saw Mamma Mia, the movie, this weekend and thought it was the funniest thing ever. The theater was packed, which surprised me because normally I pick movies that no one else likes and there are only like 15 people watching it with me. I heard the film received bad reviews, which I can understand if the person reviewing it doesn't like the music of ABBA or slapstick comedy. You definitely have to like both to enjoy watching this film...
Way to go Roachdale! Good job to Roachdale and its citizens for an All-American good time at Saturday's Summerfest parade. I attended and enjoyed seeing everyone in and out of the parade. Everyone sitting near me was very excited and I heard no complaints. As always, the kids had a blast. That goes for the ones scooping up armloads of candy from the sidelines and the youngsters in the parade itself...
