Authorities in Indiana said an overturned semi truck spilled cases of beer across the lanes of of U.S. 50 in Dearborn County.   Thankfully no one was hurt but it seems that within 2 hours, the beer was gone.  

I'm a first born and I never had a big brother.  I suppose that's good and bad.  In any case, I have negotiated and survived the ups and downs of life fairly well. Little did I know that for quite a while I have had a Big Brother tagging along and watching over me! Since who knows when, I have noticed unsolicited messages pop up on my iPhone screen, eg, "9 minutes to (my address)" or "15 minutes to the West End Cafe", where I intended to go.

It's time for another T-Shirt Blog..... Have you considered discarding that old T shirt? Here’s something to think about.

Seems inappropriate to write about anything other than this GREAT AMERICAN process. 2020 is proving to be an unexpected, historical year. We, as a country, as a people, and as a society, have been through what I describe, as SERIOUS turbulence.

I know that Corey blogged about this topic on Sunday – but I just cannot think of anything else to blog about today that makes any sense and would not seem completely superfluous. I suppose you can consider this a theme.

This past Saturday Mitch posted about Halloween. He had mentioned that he had not yet bought candy. Given the current circumstances, I can understand why he waited. As a candy lover, however, I always am very well stocked several weeks before Halloween. This year was no exception.  

Since Gotham allowed me to regularly blog in this space I used this Sunday before Election Day to urge folks to exercise their right to vote.  It remains something I feel very strongly about.  The first professional remarks I ever drafted involved such participation in our electoral process.

It's Halloween today and I don't have any candy. I'll need to run to the store to get some but I'm wondering...   Do I need to wipe down every piece? Will they take the candy if I put it out? Will there even be trick or treaters this year?   I never had so many questions about Halloween.
