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,

There's Just Nothing At All Like Fresh Strawberries

Posted 09-21-2018 at 07:17 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

I had to bring them in. They were lonely.

Just kidding, actually. But they needed some attention after having brought them to my abode from the grocery store. They've been chilling in the fridge for a few days, and it came time for a little rinsing. Once that was overwith, it was that delectable time. Each little one was cut, washed, and collected together in my bowl.

Folks, there's nothing like some fresh strawberries to please the...

Lakeside Tower Dragging Its Feet, And Nowhere Near Complete

Posted 09-16-2018 at 10:50 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

A beautiful new condo tower, once upon a time, was promised to open back in the spring. That didn't happen. And now, here it is, almost fall of 2018. The building is still far from finished.

Flower Mound's (Texas) new Lakeside Tower is still under construction, but it appears that things have slowed down on the process. There is no explanation on the website nor on the Facebook page as to why that is. Look, I know that they should just get it...

Frisco Drivers Will Need To Adjust To This

Posted 09-16-2018 at 09:28 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Well, if this isn't going out of the way to serve humanity, then I might as well be a monkey's uncle. Frisco, Texas, officials have figured out a way to straighten out one of the city's most dangerous intersections.

I saw it take shape last night as I was driving, but there still need to be some touch-ups. The intersection of Main Street and Legacy Drive in West Frisco is being reconfigured. Because Main had a very wide median through that area for many years,...

Where Exactly Did Summer Go? Springing Into Fall

Posted 09-14-2018 at 08:06 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

That calendar gets worn out for something that just otherwise hangs in the kitchen. So much chickenscratch in certain places as I have many a place to go.

But can you believe what time of year it really is? September. We just had Labor Day. And in about a week or so, we'll have the fall solstice. Already this writer is looking ahead to spring, even though it's not really cold yet. Hey, at my age, I'm just glad to even see a sunrise on any given...

Democrat Party To Shut Down? If They Keep Acting Like This, Then They Will

Updated 09-13-2018 at 04:33 AM by case44

I don't need to elaborate much, since many educated, conservative, God-fearing, law-abiding Americans do their best to stay in the know about the things going on in their country. Yet, as things improve with our nation's economy, the state of our conscience is, well, you could say, shaky.

Malaise and strife, as much as we try to shake them away, still appear to be the orders of the day.

If you really want to find out what's happening with those...
