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,

Scattershooting / The Darth Vader-nator Strikes Back?

I'm back once again because it's time once again. Guess that means more Scattershooting for the masses amongst us, and there are things going on in our world and in your kitchen. Well, regarding the latter, it might seem that way....

Sometimes, the rumor mill, crazy and out-of-control that it can get at times, puts images and ideas in people's minds. Did you know that Arnold Schwarzenegger was originally considered by the producers of...

Frisco Bands About To Head Into Another Year

In less than one month, you'll be getting a taste of the fall season in the nation's high schools, as band programs everywhere will have kids in the parking lots and on specially-designed band fields preparing their halftime routines which will be part of their contest shows. Get excited.

And in a place like Frisco, Texas, all nine of the city's high schools will be raring to go. This is a state year for schools in the district (Class 5A does this year, as every other...

A Longtime Tulsa Voice Is Silenced - And An Icon Is Gone

Posted 07-16-2017 at 09:51 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

This has been in the news for a while, but I just found out about it. The Tulsa community had a passing about a month ago, and they lost a fellow who was beloved by many Oklahomans, as well as folks around the country. Green Country television will never be the same again.

We've lost Lee Woodward back in June. He was 85 years old, but many years ago, he'd been a Tulsa institution, giving people the weather on CBS affiliate KOTV (Channel 6) for two decades,...

Sometimes, We Wonder, What's The Point?

Posted 07-16-2017 at 08:55 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)
Updated 07-16-2017 at 10:24 AM by case44

I sit here at this computer and wonder this: Why do we have to have a rebuttal speech after the weekly presidential address to America on the radio? Yes, I agree that both sides have to have a say, but I must tell you, the way things are going now, the Democrats' rebuttal (supposedly) of President Donald Trump's weekly addresses won't accomplish anything. In many ways, the way that it's presented, it defeats the purpose.

Have you been hearing these weekly speeches...

A New Way To Confirm If Your Order Is Right

Posted 07-14-2017 at 04:37 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

With technology continuing to evolve, don't you think maybe we need a new way to check if our fast food order is right.............without having to look inside the wrapper?

Face it, sports fans; confirmation is everything. Sometimes, you can go into the drive-thru or carry-out at your favorite fast food place when they think they have the order right. But what if you don't? So, Ol' Case thought of something.

Because I care about people...
