December 6, 2018 Blogging better in 2019 after hitting 20,000 views in 2018 THANK YOU! I donât know what else to say. Thereâs nothing special about hitting 20,000 blog page views except that itâs a big round number. The blog is a hobby and will be four years old next month.
October 28, 2018 Not a good day for political thoughts, the USA as a whole Iâve known I had another blog post âdueâ before the election, if you know how I think, but too much on my mind and so much going on â personally and in the news â to actually do it. After this morningâs attack in a Pittsburgh neighborhood where I have family and have been to several times, I did some reading and a lot of soul-searching before starting to write. Iâm hoping others who I trust and posted thoughts will unknowingly help a lot.

March 22, 2015 ETSU & cutting someone some slack Wednesday afternoon, ETSU officially announced the location of its soon-to-be-built football stadium. We streamed it live on the internet. That was a pretty big coup for WCYB. Unfortunately, instead of writing East for the E, I wrote Eastern.
