It’s the end of the week and what a week it’s been. I swear, we got past the idea that an unknown disease might kill us so we decided to do it ourselves. I hate to be that flippant, but this is definitely a laugh-to-keep-from-crying situation. Unfortunately, I’m not all that funny. Anyhow. We had … Continue reading Friday, April 16, 2021

We’re in the middle of the week so we’re having our regular Wednesday shower here at Enon World Headquarters. This week’s rain isn’t all that dramatic, though, as it’s rarely got harder than the occasional cloudburst. It’s still unusually cool, though, and far too damp for Otis and I to take our afternoon constitutional. C’est … Continue reading Wednesday, April 15, 2021

A little personal news before we get started. I turned 46 today. It’s also Hound Dog Taylor’s birthday, but the two probably aren’t related. Beyond that, I don’t know what to tell you. As we start the third week of the former Minneapolis Police Department officer Derek Chauvin’s trial for causing George Floyd’s death when … Continue reading Monday, April 12, 2021
The Weekend: April 10-11, 2021
Not that any of y’all are really worried about it, nor should you be, but today’s my last full day as a 45-year-old. Yep, sometime around 5:30 tomorrow morning, I’ll officially be closer to 50 than 40. I’ve never been one to get hung up on my age and I really don’t miss my youth … Continue reading The Weekend: April 10-11, 2021

We just finished the first full week of April and the weather authority is telling us we’ve got another booger of a storm coming to the Deep South. We here at Enon Holler World Headquarters are under a severe thunderstorm warning until tomorrow, the fifth one in four weeks, and some parts of Arkansas are seeing ping pong-sized … Continue reading Friday, April 9, 2021

Since we’re in the middle of a Spring week, we’ve got some foul weather coming to the Southeast. The weather folks aren’t real sure how bad it will be, but the last couple of weeks have been bad enough. Either way, pay attention to the skies and head for safety if it turns nasty. So, … Continue reading Wednesday, April 7, 2021

Hey, y’all, a bit of personal news before we get good and going. I got my first shot today. I’m taking the Pfizer vaccine which means I’ll have to go back around in three weeks. As of right now, I’m not feeling any of the adverse effects they’re warning and, so far, my free will … Continue reading Monday, April 5, 2020
The Weekend: April 4-6, 2021
For the curious, this particular part of the week's festivities has changed a bit. While I give no pretense to impartiality, I try to keep the News news. Sure, I make no bones about where I stand on a particular issue, but even then I make something of an effort in maintaining certain journalistic standards. … Continue reading The Weekend: April 4-6, 2021

Another week has come and gone, and another month has gotten underway. A busy day capping a busy week, so let’s try to wrap it all together. For the record, all I’m going to say about Matt Gaetz is his week just keeps getting worse and worse. Okay, then. In a somewhat surprising move, Major League Baseball has announced it will move the All-Star Game out of … Continue reading Friday, April 2, 2021

Y’all, look. I really don’t want to write about Matt Gaetz. For quite a while I’ve considered him a disingenuous grease stain of a man and his recent predicament doesn’t shake that perception one bit. It’s one of those “yeah, saw that coming” type deals. But I understand it is news and, thus, needs to … Continue reading Wednesday, March 31, 2021
