Save The Ice Park

Ramble On posted about the state of Mississippi losing their only ice skating rink, The Ice Park, in Flowood. www.dcooley.net/
It’s a crying shame to see this happen. How can an entire state simply let go of it’s one and only ice skating park? How can the city of Jackson, the state capitol, not have enough support from local residents who want a safe and fun environment for their kids?
Not to mention the fact that the rink is the only ice skating park in the state of Mississippi. The next closest [...]

Lady Bird Johnson 1912 – 2007

I don’t know why these things come as a shock, but sometimes, I honestly just don’t think about them. Of course, here in Texas, it’s big news. Lady Bird Johnson, former first lady during the 60′s, has died of natural causes at the ripe old age of 94. She was among family and friends at the LBJ ranch in the Texas Hill Country west of Austin. It’s always sad to see beautiful people like her pass on, but at least it was a peaceful passing.
I always think of Bluebonnets when I hear the name Lady [...]

Remembering Our Brave Soldiers & Servicemen

On this Memorial Day, it just felt like it was time to take a moment and recognize those brave souls who have served in our military here at home and in our armed forces around the world. May God Bless you and your families. It breaks my heart to see the news stories of how many soldiers we have lost to war, and how their loved ones and families struggle to survive. Even worse, how our own government falls short to care and provide for our veterans.
It is heart warming to read stories like this, about [...]

Stormy Friday

Source: National Weather Service Radar image Dallas/Fort Worth
7:01 PM CDT Friday April 13, 2007 A tornado was reported in Ft. Worth and traveled through the metroplex along with this fast moving storm system. In Plano, it was raining sideways so hard I couldn’t see the road. I had to follow the curb to turn into my driveway. Cold rain and hail were coming down hard, but I parked under the carport, and waded through the flooded parking lot to the safety of home. We lost cable TV but at least [...]

BC loses Hart

Cartoonist Johnny Hart, whose award-winning “B.C.” comic strip appeared in more than 1,300 newspapers worldwide, died last Saturday while working at his home in Endicott, New York. He was 76.
“B.C.,” launched in 1958 and eventually appeared in more than 1,300 newspapers with an audience of 100 million, according to Creators Syndicate Inc., which distributes it. I like Hart’s unique understated humor and the subtle way he worked Christian themes into the comic strip.
