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,

Daylight Time Already? My, How Time Flies

Posted 03-09-2017 at 07:20 PM by case44


In the next few days, we get to do what I've waited all winter for. The bad part is losing the one hour of sleep, but the trade-off is fabulous. We are in the midst of having more daylight each day. So, we are going to set our clocks forward one hour on Saturday night.

Yeah, that big moment occurs at 2 a.m. Sunday, at which time, it becomes 3 a.m. That is when most of us will transition to Daylight Time. Spring is the harbinger of immediate things to come as the trees get greener (long after some others got greener first due to a mild winter). My biggest challenge this Saturday, and you're going to think this is silly, is my getting in bed right after Cousin Brucie finishes his 60s on 6 program and my having to try to wake up five hours later..........in time for This Week In Lubbock on KFYO-AM's (790) computer streamlining. I can't help it; I couldn't miss it.

    This Week In Lubbock
    ...has apparently been a rollercoaster, with dust, smoke, a blowout win in baseball over Arizona which no one predicted, a car pile-up on 19th St., and other stuff.

    Here's a short video that I thought was interesting, taken on Tuesday by a U of A player:

    Can see the smoke coming from the fires near Amarillo.

    Have an inkling that you might be interested in this, too.
