Sometimes I wonder, maybe we need a little of that.” It was something of an peripheral comment, but it wasn’t a […]
Just a few pixels of personal privilege, and honor. I’m sure some slapdash Halloween costumes await us during the teen years — a wrinkled jersey, two quick smears of eyeblack, grab a pillowcase, and the mad pursuit of chocolate is on.

The rules: Leave the correct answer as a comment below. (Optional, but interesting: tell us […]
Wow, it’s been well over a week and I’ve had nothing at all to post here — the longest in-season gap in this blog’s four-year history. The reasons are several, but since no one has asked, I won’t bore you with the full litany. Suffice it to say that, while my passion for the Browns […]
