There's A Part Of Me That Still Misses Analog TV

Posted 01-06-2022 at 08:55 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Do you still miss those rabbit ears? While I appreciate the convenience and the technology we have now, I still miss the old analog television from yesteryear. That's when channel numbers really were channel numbers.

Nowadays, stations would rather rely on call letters since cable and satellite operators tend to put certain channels in places where their previous identity might get lost. Suddenly (for example), Channel 8 would not be Channel 8 anymore. Guess...

I certainly think we can, and have, done better than either. But US politics is too messed up right now and we waste a lot of energy on this cultural divide. As a result we don't always choose the best leaders.

I-69 Update: RGV Just Getting Bigger

Posted 01-04-2022 at 07:22 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Deep South Texas keeps on growing. Road work is continuing at a brisk pace, especially in the McAllen area.

Interstate 69C is getting an expanded connection with an ever-expanding Interstate 2. It's badly needed in the Rio Grande Valley region. Ground was broken a few months ago on the new direct-connectors. At least one new lane is being added to I-2 in each direction. There's no question that the Valley's busiest roadway is about to experience a little less congestion....

You comment as if this is a problem lol. The areas that I've inquired about are where I'd consider relocating to, as this is where I have connections with family, support, and work. I think NY, CA, and TX just about covers it for me.
