The internet and phone went out Halloween night. There was a light rain, and with Frontier Communications that’s all it takes. The rain doesn’t need to be local. As long as it is raining, or someone sneezes, anywhere in the world, Frontier Communications internet and phone service is likely to fail.
I never intended to become Archie Bunker. But, he had a point: the old LeSalle ran great. Things of the past did, because they were easily repairable. In an age of disposable everything, working with something old is a reminder of that.
If you look around or listen, you’ll hear the newly minted cliché that the Democratic Party is now engaged in soul searching after it got hammered yesterday, top to bottom, by voters who did not like what it was selling.
Ahead of the 2024 Presidential Election, Tim and Jason resume an old tradition of theirs and make their predictions of how the race will turn out.
If all goes well, we’ll awaken a week from today to the ghastly thought that we’ll be listening to that voice for the next four years. I say if all goes well, because if the election is as close as the predictors say it will be — sooner or later, just by chance, they will be right — this thing could drag on for months, or it could result in instant rioting. I say that voice because no one who should be allowed to run free can stand the sound of either of the presidential candidates.
I wanted to vote early to avoid the crowds. I wanted to, but less than a week away from the election I haven’t. The crowds going to vote early dwarf what we normally deal with on Election Day.
There was a time, longer ago than most of us who remember it would like to admit, when most people in the country could identify the three national television news anchors. Well, except for ABC; at the time it seemed as if ABC could not identify its own anchor.
Tim and Jason talk sports and hope — but not at the same time — as they think about the WNBA, and St. Louis soccer and baseball, before turning to God’s faithfulness shown even in death.
Halloween approaches. Children who persuaded their parents to buy them costumes right when they appeared in stores have had time to outgrow them. If candy was purchased at that time it has been consumed or gone bad. Evenings are beginning to get a crispness suggesting summer might be going if it’s not quite gone.
Tim and Jason put their heads together to explore the political landscape ahead of the 2024 Election. In this episode, they discuss the overall situation in the presidential election, cable news networks and the Christian obligation to vote or not.
