I thought the day would never come. But Thursday, it will finally be time to tee it up for another season. Thanks to Mother Nature, it took long enough. But I hope it’s worth the wait. Thursday will be the first official round of golf I have played this season. I’m sure it will be [...]

Quite the project

I think it’s been about 13 months in the making. I could be off by a couple weeks, but I do know it’s been quite a while. Around a year ago, the Daily Globe was hired by the Chamber of Commerce and Convention and Visitors Bureau to create a promotional video for the city of [...]
If you had a choice, which would you choose?

I have had a very deep philosophical argument in my head lately. If I had a choice, which would I choose? I live in a place that does not have air conditioning, central heat, dishwasher or laundry facilities. If I had a chance to choose one of them to add, which would I? I go back [...]

It was a long Lenten season. As many of you know, I gave up pop. That sweet, caffeinated drink was no longer in my life. And I made it. But wow, was it tough. The beginning was the worst. Constantly, I was craving that wonderful drink. I was lucky. I had someone to help with go through [...]

By the time most of you read this, it will be over. It will have come and gone just that quickly. And hopefully, I will be happy. More than likely, I won’t be. Of course, I’m talking about my fantasy baseball draft. On Tuesday night, I will sit down and scour over rosters, scouting reports [...]

It seems like it’s been forever since I last wrote a blog. And so much has been going on. Of course, there will be more time — and space — to talk about things in the future posts, so I’ll keep this one brief. To catch up on things, the newsroom has been busy. We [...]
