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,

case44

I Guess If It's Got To Be Fixed.....

Posted 11-10-2014 at 06:23 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

You'd think the fire inspection team would have a perfect score in their recent go-around at my apartment complex. Well, it looks like they'll have to repair a few sprinkler heads this week at a few of the units.

And that includes mine.....

Better safe than sorry, I always say. Sprinkler heads have to function right and must work properly. I just never expected such negatory issues to exist even in my own apartment. Goes to show you that apartments...

Scattershooting / Another Wrong Fast-Food Order

It's that time again, folks. We've had Halloween. We've had an election. We're going to have Thanksgiving eventually (three weeks from this writing). But at this time, we're going to do some Scattershooting right here on Case's Column. Besides, that early Christmas shopping can wait a bit....

********

Just when you think fast food restaurants would have it together, when they understand your order, only for you to find out when the food...

Want To Bring America Back? Go Vote On Election Day

Posted 11-03-2014 at 08:22 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Americans, it is high time. We have watched as so many things have changed in the last six years in the nation we call home. Many of those changes have not been welcome ones. Tuesday's upcoming midterm elections are just the beginning. Not everything will get changed, obviously, but it all starts with what we do on November 4. If you're sick and tired of being sick and tired, then Tuesday is your day to make something new happen.

Some of us have had the awesome...

A Very Strange Dream......About Roaches

Posted 11-01-2014 at 06:01 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)
Updated 11-01-2014 at 07:59 AM by case44

Very recently, we had a few roaches managing to sneak their way into my work area at the office. I'm amazed at how people can't simply just step on a roach just to get rid of it. Heck, even one co-worker decided to actually pick it up with her hands and quickly open the emergency exit and let it down on the ground.

And I thought our federal government was bad.

So, not too long ago, I had a dream about what it'd be like just to find an unconventional...

And It Was Just A Piece Of Pie....

Posted 10-27-2014 at 08:56 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Oh, the potential. First, I baked an apple crumb pie which I could not wait to tear into once it got done. The fruit and outer crust got baked first, followed by my sprinkling of the crumbs and all that go with that on top, and then, back into the oven.

It looked good. It would eventually taste good. Problems? Oh, you bet. This poster cut into the finished product. Well, this was not a sturdy pie crust. My piece of pie just became a train wreck. ...
