The hand brushed past my radar in the newsroom in Winston-Salem, it was clever, and then I forgot about it. For some reason it struck my memory tonight.
The Order of the Occult Hand has no president, board, or member roll. It’s existed for more than 40 years. I haven’t joined, and odds are against […]

Heck, it was only two months ago when I wrote about how I wished Blue Ridge Country 98.1 FM had live streaming of their stuff. And now they do. Sweet. This is particularly handy now that I’m not living in North Carolina. I recommend tuning in Friday nights between 6 and 10 p.m., East Coast […]

I’ve got a new zip code (80204), a new extension at my office number (1057), and a new skyline.
In the past 16 days I travelled 6880 miles (more than half done in my hardy Honda Civic hatchback). This incuded a wedding, a visit with my dad’s side of the family (four separate visits), two stops […]

In three weeks I start a new job doing development for the Denver Post’s online news team. I’m excited. It’s my first programming gig, which means 1. I get to spend most of my time doing the stuff that interests me about online news, and 2. I have ascended to a new level of computer […]

I don’t know how many non-corporate music-radio stations are left (besides college radio). I do know I never liked country as much as I do now that I know 98.1 FM. It broadcasts out of Galax, Virginia, right over the state line. In the evenings, from 6 to 10 p.m., they have this “Blue […]

From Winston-Salem’s Craig’s List:
My roomate and I are looking for a hedgehog to adopt but we can’t find one anywhere. If anyone knows where we can get one, please let me know! Thanks!

It’s ladies night at the race track tonight, and this is how the Bowman Gray track web site explains the concept: “At $1 Ladies’ Night events, female fans are admitted for $1 (no escort is required)”. That’s totally quaint.
Tonight’s the last demolition derby of the season. If I get any good photos from it I’ll […]

So, here are the things going on in my world … today somebody told me about newspaper man Dean Singleton, who has a controversial history in the industry, there’s what seems to be a good article about him at CJR.
I got 13 rolls of photos back from the photo lab today, there’s one roll […]
