Heading south again
Posted Sunday, May 31, at 6:28 AM
Well, it's that time of year again.

You won't been seeing my byline during the coming week. My sweetie and I are loading up the car, tuning the XM radio to Maragritavile and hitting the road today to points south.

Before that, we'll gathering with family for a brief ceremonial incantation, followed by a one night stay at a famous Chattanooga landmark and then we'll be heading down to Panama City Beach for the rest of the honeymoon.

Oh, yeah. Did I mention mention we're getting married today?

See you on June 8.



So much for my car

I picked a great day to get sick. After finishing stories for Friday's paper last night, the symptoms kicked in, so I took an Ibuprofen and hit the sack. However, I felt much worse upon rising this morning, so after I got things done at work, I took the rest of the day off and came home...



Apparently, enough WAS enough...

Back in November, I blogged about the use of classic rock hits as background tunes in a post titled: "Muzak.... when is enough, enough?" Well, I just got my answer...



Oh deer ...again.

I was lucky this time. Just about 10 minutes ago, coming into Shelbyville via Hwy. 130, I spotted a four point buck standing on the side of the road. I slammed on my brakes as it began to sprint across the road, but the damp highway caused me to keep sliding right into the poor beast...



Muzak.... when is enough, enough?

The other day, I was having a quick lunch a local restaurant, when unfortunately, I began to notice the background music, which typically consists of either jazzed up or orchestral versions of classic rock tunes. Normally, I try to tune this out, seeing how annoying some of this stuff can be for an old rock and roll fan...



Change that your kids will HAVE to believe in…

Well, we're starting to see what kind of "change" that many of you folks voted for last week. This is from a new government website called www.change.gov, where you get to see what your new president has planned for you and your children. From America Serves:...



Vacation time again
Posted Friday, October 17, at 9:54 AM

Well, it's time once again to take a break and relax. My beat will fall to others next week while I recharge. There will be a day or so spent in North Carolina and the general area with my ladyfriend. I'll be keeping an sharp eye out for bears as well as those kamikaze deer that I seem to attract...



Your questions
Posted Thursday, October 16, at 11:05 AM

This is a note to the many readers who send us questions via our "Respond to editor" link at the top of our stories on the T-G website. It is very important that you at least give us an e-mail address to respond to when you have a question. Recently, I've been unable to answer questions raised about stories because there is no reply address...



Oh deer...

Everyone needs to keep a sharp eye out while driving over the next few months. While on the way into work this morning, I encountered a group of young deer sprinting across the road at the golf course on Highway 130. A group of the beasts ran in front of me as I came to a stop. I came very close to running into two of them...



A timely movie review
Posted Monday, October 6, at 8:00 PM

I've been feeling really under the weather this weekend and thought that I was well enough to work Monday, but the immediate rejection of lunch put that notion to rest. So it's back to bed for me. But lying around watching the constant sordid flow of political and financial news would likely make things worse, so instead, I grabbed a handful of used DVD's I bought last Christmas that I never got around to viewing, and hit the hay...
