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 Wakes Up To The Time Change Sunday Wipeout

Try as I may, there has to be a time to get in bed and a time to get out of it. After changing the clocks last night, Ol' Case finally got in the sack at 11:30 (under the old time).

This morning, I had to awaken at 5:40 so I can slowly get started before leaving the apartment one hour later to go out to breakfast in nearby Frisco. Nearly five hours of sleep were accounted for.................but it wasn't enough. I woke up tired, of course, but then again,...

Scattershooting Again / A Former Cowboy Decides To Ride Back In

Here this writer goes again with another venture into this multi-tasking exercise known as Scattershooting, frequently right here on this cozy arcade called City-Data, where it's great to be alive. When you start to absorb this paragraph, then you can go to the next one. Good thing about America is, you can just take your sweet time as you read this.

Idle Thought About Upcoming Daylight Savings Time

Posted 03-02-2019 at 08:18 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Bizarre happenings are sometimes just a part of life as we know it. If it's going to happen, then it will. I'm pretty sure that some things that can only happen in dreams couldn't possibly take place in real life.

But let's just say, for grins, that with the upcoming Daylight Savings Time, which commences in a week, some type of event were to take place at a weird time. That weird time won't happen until November, when Daylight time will end. The time change...

The Bowl Of Ice Cream Which Awaits

Posted 03-02-2019 at 07:05 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

It sits there figuratively in my mind before it actually happens. When it finally does, I make sure not to use a small bowl. Small just isn't enough. This writer has to go bigger.

The scooper gets picked up and the container is open. Case needs more than just two scoops of that Blue Bell chocolate chip ice cream that tastes so good, there's just never enough. The number of scoops which ensue is usually around, oh, eight or so. Some, larger than...
