Tuesday Scrapple

Aretha Franklin really was "THE Queen."  I'm sorry she's gone.

That first cool, clear day will feel so great.  I can't wait for it to get here.

Thank you, New York, for dumping untreated sewage into the Susquehanna River.

There are several great stories in Major League Baseball this year, including the success of the Oakland Athletics.  Hey, get the team a new stadium already!

While I'm ready for fall, I'm really not ready for football.

JCPenney had a horrible second quarter.  Why do we no longer like department stores?  It seems like they trimmed employees in recent years.  Customer service suffered.  And, they wonder why people shop on-line.

I really don't understand the shark fascination.

Whoever came up with the idea of playing a major league baseball game in Williamsport during the Little League World Series is a genius.  The pictures were outstanding.

Isn't it sad that many parents are insisting they have bullet proof backpacks for children?

We were bombarded by complaints over a Montage Mountain concert and a RailRiders game at the same time Friday night.  It looks like the concert was over-sold.  Be that as it may, that interchange and those roads simply can't handle a lot of traffic.  It's that way on a daily basis.  Because of the terrain, I can't see how it can be reconfigured-- again.

It's great to see how many businesses and individuals have stepped up to help after the recent rund of flash flooding.

I'm not if it shows the wisdom of diversification, or the fact they no longer have confidence in broadcasting, but several big radio companies are branching out in to podcasting.
