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,

An American Tribute From The Duke

Posted 07-04-2016 at 03:40 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

You may remember all those old western movies and how John Wayne was usually the hero in many of them. He was known by many as The Duke, and was about as All-American as they get.

I thought that, for this blog post, I would just provide a link for you as you wave your Old Glory today. Put on a few burgers, watch some fireworks or a parade (or, perhaps, both), and take in this tribute by Duke Wayne which reminds us of the great nation that America is. Enjoy!

I-69 Update: Overcoming An Ohio River Obstacle

Posted 07-01-2016 at 08:43 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Normally, these Interstate 69 updates are usually about the project within my home state of Texas, but every now and then, I'd like to get you some updates elsewhere along the road's path.

And this tidbit of information is real significant..........and huge!

For years, officials in Kentucky and Indiana have been wanting an I-69 bridge over the Ohio River, but have struggled to put together a plan. That is, until now.

I-69 Bridge Connecting Southern IN and Western KY Announced...

Two Interstate Corridors Sorely Needed In Texas

Posted 06-25-2016 at 09:20 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

For a while, you've read my harpings on the latest interstate projects going on in my home state of Texas. I've given you updates on I-69, and in the future, I'm planning to get you some word on the new I-14 corridor, currently just in Central Texas, but will eventually be stretching from West Texas to East Texas.

Despite the money woes of our precious Texas Department of Transportation, the state is still in need for improved mobility in some key locations. ...

The Right Place, But The Wrong Time? Or Perhaps, It's....

Posted 06-21-2016 at 05:24 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Seemingly, every time I get the itch to write, I'm in the wrong place. I wouldn't be at my computer, or I'm in my car in the middle of somewhere, or eating in some restaurant when I'd get an idea for a blog, but am nowhere near a place to write ideas down.

Ideas have been captured on to a napkin or a piece of scratch paper. That's sometimes. Other times? I had an idea (I mean, a really good idea) in the wrong place and would wind up losing it eventually, never...
