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,

Another New Texas Interstate? Yep - It's Coming

You knew it was going to happen. You just didn't know when it was going to happen. Like it or not, it's a big deal to many folks in Central Texas, and a new interstate will eventually make its way into our everyday lives, not to mention Rand McNally, Google, MapQuest, and any other source you can think of.

Interstate 14, ladies and gentlemen, is coming to Texas. Pretty soon, after the FHWA and AASHTO each do their thing, the Texas Transportation Commission...

Scattershooting / A Product Not Living Up To Its Name

Posted 12-05-2015 at 07:20 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Here we go once again with more scattershooting for you right here on Case's Column. And if we cover things here, then you know it must be legit. So, sit back, relax, and just let a whole lot of things happen on your computer screen. And, like I said, here we go!

Friday, I stopped by a new local gas station/convenience store chain called FastFuels. You can tell what the concept of this is going to be whilst just driving in to the...

A Close Shave That's A Cut Below The Rest

Posted 12-03-2015 at 07:25 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)
Updated 12-03-2015 at 10:06 PM by case44

Let's face it, sports fans: I cut myself at least once a week while shaving. Maybe it's my skin or maybe I'm not ginger enough with a razor. And, of course, I only use a disposable.

The thing is, I'm not all that crazy about shaving, but it has to be done. And definitely before I head off to work, as I have to be neatly shaven every time I'm there. But I always manage to nick myself in some spot each week. Why I can't escape it, however, is a mystery....

What Are We Thankful For? Hey, Just Count Your Blessings

Posted 11-26-2015 at 07:17 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Thanksgiving in America is upon us once again, and I hope yours is a great one.

Sometimes, you can glean things from the simplest of conversations, and it happened tonight after my annual fowl play at the dinner table. My mother, ever the wise philosopher, had something to share that she noticed about me. She commented in a great way about how I like to stay upbeat all the time. Well, why not? It beats being depressed, for starters. Positivity just...
