Nathan just sat for his senior portraits. He only learned to walk a couple of years ago, so I don’t understand how this is possible.
Locals, are you ready to live in black bear country? Because you do.
I wish more people were amenable to the early breakfast meeting. It’s a scheduling secret weapon that packs a lot of punch. It’s almost like you’re getting away with something.
I purchased glasses with progressive lenses at my eye exam this week. I think one of the last truly funny things Bill Cosby did was his stand-up material on getting trifocals. How sad and infuriating that I can’t even really enjoy that anymore.
Alexander Rossi drove off with Road America on Sunday, and there are rumblings now that Penske may go back to four full-time entries in 2020 if it means picking him up. He’s a one-man silly season, as Robin Miller put it!
Dave Bartholomew, who wrote “Ain’t That a Shame,” “Blue Monday,” and several other iconic rock ‘n’ roll songs, died this week. He was 100. Thank you, sir. RIP.
I’m delighted to be participating in and publicizing Huntsville Restaurant Week again this year. Watch for the features here on BoWilliams.com.
