Follow Up Wednesday

 

REVISITING SOME EARLIER TOPICS...

I recently whined about a 24 hour drug store turning off its self serve check outs.  The reason-- theft.  Well, apparently the store is re-thinking its policy.  One one recent visit, both machines were off with the signs saying they were unavailable only from midnight to 6 am.  It was slightly different on the next visit.  No signs.  One machine turned on.  The other was off.

The NCAA basketball tournament final rating was way down. I'm guessing it was the lack of a marquee match up.

Reaction to Bishop James Timlin's death has been mixed.  It has been proven Timlin could have helped keep children safe from molestation, but didn't.  Some look at other aspects of Timlin's life.  This one, friends, is up to you.

Baseball's rules tweaks appear to be going well so far.  I'll have more on that during a mid season review.

Some municipalities around here are slow to fill potholes, and it's a sloppy job when it does happen.  A utility project has much of my little town ripped up.

David Letterman turns 76 today.  I consider Dave to be a close second to Johnny Carson when it comes to late night talents.  Tom Snyder and Craig Ferguson aren't far behind.

I'm glad so many of you enjoyed the Scranton umbrella photos-- not just here, but on television as well.  You still have a couple more weeks to see it.
