My advice… shoot to kill
Quoting from New Orleans’ Times-Picayune breaking news: ”People are leaving the Superdome to go to Canal Street to loot… ” (Link via the new and excellent Burlington, NC blogger David Boyd)
**************
Update: Obviously the situation on the ground has changed since I posted this. What I saw and read about two days ago was people taking TV’s, [...]

Unless you are privy to the titles to Cone’s posts, which only show up on the news feed summary at Greensboro101.com (ed. and other aggregators), you wouldn’t know today’s post mentioning Sen. Jesse Helms carried the following title: Sign of the apocalypse. Heh.

Whoops… his bad
Psst.
Someone needs to tell District 1 City Council candidate Luther B. Falls that, despite the fact that it is a very important issue for all of Greensboro, the position he is seeking has little-to-nothing to do with providing citizens with “a quality education” (PDF file).

A high compliment indeed
I am blushing. No, really… looky here… I am blushing like a little school girl.
Yesterday I went over to virtually visit long-time N&R reporter and newly-minted blogger Jim Schlosser’s Architecture, Antiques and Artifacts blog and welcomed him to the local blogging scene. He put up a very informative post about the looming re-contentiousness between the [...]

Caution to anonymous commenters
Yesterday, the title of this post from ThatsWhatzUp intrugued me when it showed up on Greensboro101 so went to read it. A link provided carried me to an earlier post that was just as cryptic. So I followed the link in that post that took me to an even earlier post entitled “I hear you [...]

Ups and downs
I’ve been on many roller coasters over the years, but few can compare with the ups and downs experienced while getting cancer out of our lives. Events of this past week will give an idea of what the ride is like.
Jinni had her last chemo infusion last Friday. In a celebratory mood, I went and bought [...]

Local video
Tom Lassiter is shooting a promotional video for ConvergeSouth and came by my front porch this morning to get my take on some stuff for the piece.
