Rain, rain, come today or soon….

Baseball season at the local level is over….it is time for fall sports….bring them on…..

For NFL fans….Thoughts on Tom Brady suspension? Deflategate……

If you were the Baseball Commissioner would you allow Pete Rose to be considered for the Hall of Fame? Not sure his entry to the organization would lower the standards….See who is already there and check their past….His numbers are great, his character is questionable, but so are many others….

Busy weekend upcoming….I know, sounds like a broken record…but check it out in our Events section.

Special programs ongoing at the Bladen County Library.

Learn about the largest mammal in our area, the black bear…Our friends at Jones Lake are offering a free program Saturday morning…..Interested????? Call 910-588-4550.

Saturday is the date for a huge fundraiser for Ayven Lennon and his family. Ayven is suffering from cancer and the Benefits Committee in the Bladenboro area take care of their own about as well as any place I know…Chicken and BBQ plates will be on sale from 4 – 7 p.m…..Fun, food an auction and all the proceeds go to the Lennon family to assist in covering expenses related to the cost of providing care for the 5 year old….If you cannot attend or if you can, donations are welcomed…Time to step-up and support this worthy cause…

Gov. McCrory has results of a recent study of the Cape Fear River….I do not know all the issues…but….some are concerned that towns and cities upstream are taking water from the Cape Fear, using it and then releasing it into another body of water……….How much can be taken from the Cape Fear before it is harmed? Don’t know, but someone in authority should study the report…and apparently will…..

I have gotten to the age where I need my false teeth and hearing aid before I can ask where I left my glasses…

I have learned that two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different. James Rhinehart

I have no problem keeping secrets. It’s the people I tell.
