This Just In

This Just In — The State of our Union is much stronger than it feels right now and not in the ways that our current president would like.

This Just In — This, too, was a date that should live in infamy. On this day in 1942, Franklin Roosevelt, arguably America’s most beloved (certainly most elected) president, signed an executive order that was among the most shameful, egregious acts of racism in the history of the nation.

This Just In — The intersection of Franklin and Columbia was flooded with fans within seconds. The court in the Smith Center was stormed … twice.

This Just In — No, we can’t keep up. It’s too much. That, in part, is the goal. Flood the zone with trivial things, inflammatory thing … so many things.

This Just In —No, really, it’s going to snow this weekend. If you feel like Charlie Brown lining up to kick that football while Lucy gets ready for the snap and snatch, you have to ask yourself why Charlie Brown never just gets right to it and kicks Lucy instead? 

I’m from New England. We take winter storms seriously. Spend a week in a freezing house without running water, trees breaking off and crashing in the yard all around you (very dangerous) and only masonry fireplaces to warm yourself and you’ll appreciate a warm can of beans, too.

In the last week, there has been an amazing flurry of illegality flowing from the Trump Administration. Amazing – not in the good way.

This Just In — If your family gatherings over the holidays were anything at all like mine, well …...

This Just In — The end-of-year countdown has begun, thankfully. It’s been a doozy, this ten years squeezed into one.

This Just In — If you’re very lucky in this life, you get to meet or otherwise be associated with one or two people who are standout individuals – truly exceptional in ways that are manifest to all who meet them. D.G. Martin was such a person.
