Cool down ahead?

Well, I don’t have to tell you how hot it has been.  There’s several things it has been hotter than lately…Hades…love…the surface of the sun.  You get the idea.

It looks like this week may be headed fora  cool down, and it will be much welcomed by everyone, I’m sure.  Highs are projected to be in the upper 70′s and low 80′s, with nighttime lows in the 60′s and possibly the 50′s by Friday morning?  I like it.

I’ll have more to post later, but just to keep it brief…

- The Market in the Park was great this past…

UPDATE: Couldn’t make it to the park, or just want to take a trip down memory lane?  Look no further!  We present to you, the 2010 Market in the Park photo gallery.

It won’t be long now before the Big Tent goes up on Main Street and the funnel cakes get dusted with powdered sugar.  In the meantime, how about whetting your Sorghum Festival appetite with another event showcasing the artistic and creative spirit of Morgan Countians?

What’s happening?

Been a crazy hectic couple of weeks, so I haven’t been able to keep up to date on posting…it’s also been too hot to type, so…let’s catch up a little today.

- It looks like the heat will be around all week.  Mid-and-upper-90′s for highs.  The good news is that it looks like a cool down is headed our way for next week.  As nice as last summer was, this one has been equally miserable.

- The old McKenzie’s Shopwise/Department Store building is pretty much gone.  Yesterday it was down to mostly just a pile of rubble.  I’d imagine that…

Monday Report

Well, it is Monday, and that is bad enough.  Throw in a night of restless sleep, and a small amount of it, at that, and you’ve got yourself one great way to start the week!

But rather than bemoan the fact that is Monday, I decided to post a little good news today…something to help everyone get the week off to a good start.  Only problem is, I couldn’t really find any!!

Don’t get me wrong.  Good news is...

classy frieds. *FIXED!*

Just an update…due to an error on my part, the Classifieds were not working. The bug has been fixed, and now the Classifieds are re-opened for business!

well, thanks to an observant reader, i’ve been informed that our Classifieds are broken right now.  i hadn’t noticed it, because i almost exclusively use Firefox, and it appears to be isolated to Internet Explorer.

i supposed i could just tell everyone to switch to Firefox and save me the hassle of trying...

Who knew…

So basically, when this whole oil gusher thing began down there in the Gulf, you KNOW they had a meeting trying to figure out what the hell to do to stop it.  At some point during that meeting, somebody said, “Well, we could just try to shove something down in the hole and clog it up…sort of like a cork.”  And, apparently, all the other BP people said, “Listen, Frank, we need REAL ideas.  Anyone else?”.

Fast forward a few...

At this point, I’m not even sure what purpose Fox news is serving other than to provide material for John Stewart.

OH!…So THAT’S what happened…

We’ve all been wondering why the economy is in the toilet, but worry no more!!

Thank goodness Rush Limbaugh has figured it out… (taken from here)

Rush Limbaugh said on his July 2 radio show that he believes Obama tanked the economy on purpose, both as “payback” for 230 years of racial oppression and because Obama simply doesn’t like America.

He railed: “Who is Obama? Why is he doing this? Why? Why is he doing it? ...

It’s World Cup Time!!

Well, it started last week…anyway…

For some reason, I always seem to enjoy watching World Cup soccer matches, but outside of that, I find soccer to be about as interesting as hockey…and I don’t mean that in a good way.

Soccer has just had a hard time catching on here in the United States, at least with sports fans.  It seems to be hugely popular as a sport that parents have their kids playing, but at some point there is a...

What’s on your mind today?

If you are anything like me, you are happy that it is Thursday, because that means tomorrow is Friday.

I’ve been extra-busy with other stuff and haven’t been able to post any updates in a while, so I figured I’ll throw a few things out there for discussion today and see what’s on your mind.

- The BP leak has been capped but continues to gush oil into the Gulf of Mexico.  Meanwhile, their stock is sliding and some reports say...
