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,

Case's Thought For The Day: Oh, You Can Keep Dreaming....

Posted 02-11-2023 at 07:58 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Gentle readers, I think now's a good time for our Thought For The Day, whether you like to dream or not:

If you're sick of following your dreams, then just ask where they're going and hook up with ’em later.

Your thought life may well thank you for it.

Each U.S. State Ought To Have Its Own Power Grid

Posted 02-09-2023 at 07:25 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Here's what I don't understand: Why in the flying fudge does the U.S. only have four electric power grids?

Only four that I'm aware of.

Two of those I know of are in Texas, one covering just the El Paso metropolitan area, and then another for the rest of the state. I can tell you this: It's not enough.

What will give Americans more peace of mind is if each of our states would have its own power grid. Here's what I think the layout...

Fort Worth's Panther Island Has A Ways To Go

Posted 02-06-2023 at 08:57 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

I took some time earlier today to head for Fort Worth and take a look at the Panther Island project. Based on the things I've seen the last few years, I believe it's going to be a great connector and bridge from Fort Worth's downtown to points north, the most notable being the historic Stockyards District.

The project, as a whole, is going to be a slow process, but there is movement. What I'll be curious about is whether or not LaGrave Field and the Coyote...

There Are Other Choices Americans Can Make Tuesday Night Instead Of One Bad Thing

I'm glad that we have the internet. I'm also glad there's cable and satellite television. Heck, you can also add computers with streamlining to the landscape.

You and I are still in the midst of a nightmare that even Stephen King could not make up.

After over two years of the absolute darkest nightmare Americans have experienced, perhaps, in our lifetimes, after the lies, after the deceptions, and especially after all the atrocities brought forth by...

Case's Thought For The Day: Maybe This One Will Fly

Posted 02-05-2023 at 07:40 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

I guess it's time again for my Thought For The Day, and it's never too late to learn new things. Perhaps Steven Wright, the comedian, said it best:

"If at first, you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you."
