Welcome To Case's Column

Let me say a big welcome to all of you for joining me here. I'm going to call these blog meetings Case's Column. I wanted to use "Corner", but that was already taken. Since 2008, it's been a real privilege to come on here and share some of my life with you, and it's a big world where we live.

In these blogs, I'll just speak whatever is on my mind, but we will be playing within the rules here. I may pick a particular topic, point out an event, or shoot the breeze. I'm a little bit of an essayist at times, so I'll just speak what's on my mind, and I might tell a story or two. Or, I might spew out an opinion or three. There will be some serious moments, some tender, some poignant, but there will also be those moments that you'll just bust out laughing. But, hopefully, everything will be in good fun here. And, of course, there's a place below for your comments and thoughts as we go along here. So feel free to join me for the ride -- I sure as heck hope I'm doing this right and not making any mistakes.

Thanks for taking your time in reading Case's Column. Hopefully, you'll enjoy being entertained by it as much as I've enjoyed putting these writings together. And thanks for the time you spend in City-Data.com, where it's great to be alive!

Regards,

She's Not Really A Big Deal, But....

Posted 06-06-2020 at 08:28 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

....I do wonder if she privately obsesses over me.

Okay, a little background for you: A waitress at Saltgrass (who, for now, shall remain nameless) began flirting with me over the Thanksgiving holidays and Christmas, but she gave me limited ways of getting in touch with her outside of work. Oh, and she also has a boyfriend. Now, I've assured her to the best of my ability that I don't want to get in the way of a committed relationship, but she kind of blew that idea...

Frisco, TX Band Preview: Raccoons Will Be Larger

Posted 06-04-2020 at 08:16 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)
Updated 06-05-2020 at 08:12 PM by case44

Last night, I had taken a look at the Frisco High School band's website, and there was a list of students who auditioned for the school's three symphonic bands to perform in the 2020-21 school year. In judging from the numbers I saw --- and since all band members must participate in marching band ---, the Fightin' Raccoon Band will be the largest since Greg Hayes' departure three years ago.

As far as I know, David Simon will return as the program's director. ...

Mark Your Calendars For National Donut Day (Friday)

Posted 06-03-2020 at 08:30 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

June 5 is not just another day. This Friday, it will become National Donut Day in America. Whatever your desire is for your favorite donut, chances are, you might get some pretty good deals on Friday.

Every year in June, the first Friday is always designated for donuts. If I don't forget, then I might just pick up some of those great round thing-a-ma-bobs gathered neatly in a box, and then take them to work. And who doesn't like a good donut? Glazed,...

Riots Are Tipping Point Which Will Red-Pill America Like Never Before

Posted 06-01-2020 at 03:28 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)
Updated 06-01-2020 at 05:42 PM by case44

Just when America was trying to get reopened up after the COVID-19 crisis, my goodness, another crisis unfolds. An ill-advised move by a Minneapolis police officer during the arrest of one George Floyd has triggered a crazy and alarming aftermath.

And here's the rub: A lot of the protests that have been going on ended up NOT having that much to do with honoring George Floyd. You'd think protests, in and of themselves, would be peaceful. In this day and age, you...

Interesting Question From The Forums With An Answer

Posted 05-31-2020 at 05:44 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)
Updated 05-31-2020 at 06:41 AM by case44

I don't do this very much, but this writer couldn't resist.

A question was asked on the Garden forums as a pretty good thread starter, and it asked "What can be done about bee decline?" Now, I know the real intention of the thread, but what if I wanted to offer a zinger for that? Ol' Case just has something up his sleeve.

You ready for it?

So, I'll ask the previous question: What can be done about bee decline?
