Welcome To Case's Column

Since this will be my first venture into the mysterious world of blogging, 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.

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, I'll set aside a place here 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.

Here you are. My very first blog page. Come on in and share in the experience. I'm interested in seeing where this is all going. And thanks in advance for dropping by!

Regards,

case44

Valentine's Day Will Have You Seeing Red

Posted 02-09-2013 at 06:45 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Never mind that I am single and by myself. It won't exempt me from getting a couple of Valentine cards for some special people as the day approacheth ever so slightly. If nothing else, it will take my mind temporarily off the Astros and the start of spring training.

The grocery stores will be a sea of red this week. So, too, will all area candy stores (mine and yours). So, too, again, will Hallmark gift shops. I've been to the grocery store today and...

Case44's Super Bowl Pick For The Big Game

Posted 02-02-2013 at 08:50 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

I need to make this a yearly tradition, and since I started blogging back in ought-8, I'm surprised I haven't to this point. So, this writer is going to this time.

As you all know, the Super Bowl occurs tomorrow at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans. You already know that the San Francisco 49ers are playing the Baltimore Ravens. Case's Column is now going to give you my prediction for the final score of the biiiiiggg game. Grab your cola and...

Groundhog Day Again - And Another Early Spring

Posted 02-02-2013 at 08:33 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

My gosh, is Punxsutawney Phil auditioning for a weather job in Dallas? No, I think he'll just stay in Pennsylvania, but he just did warm weather lovers a humongous favor. For the second time in three years, he's predicting an early spring. Shadow or no, I like it when he rings this tune.

I'm with him, actually. I prefer highs of 70 over highs of 40. We just had a slight cold spell in North Texas in the last few days, but we'll be back to 70 tomorrow,...

Looks Like 'Color My World' Is Taking On A New Twist

Posted 01-31-2013 at 06:23 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)
Updated 01-31-2013 at 08:21 PM by case44

If my apartment complex were a pop-up book, there'd now be a little kid putting different colors of paint on all the formerly-cream-colored exteriors. He'd probably use a magic marker kind of like I would have at his alleged age, but that's not important now. Seen my place lately? Oh, I forgot; y'all haven't seen it yet. Well, if you'd travel by my little neighorhood right now, you would see the real thing. Indeed, the painters have come on and coated numerous colors...

Time once again to scattershoot amongst the masses as I bring you yet another installment from this trusty medium we call..................the blog. So, let's gather together for some news, notes, views, and just some good, plain ol' fun. While some of you are still cold out there, let me keep you toasty warm for a little bit.

I just mentioned toasty warm. With the harsh reminder that it's still winter time here in America, I'll take...
