The Friday Struggle Bus Has Already Sailed
Almost… (a weekly tradition for almost a week now)
Almost… (a weekly tradition for almost a week now)
We actually boarded with the best intentions of trouble, pressure, and general mental torture as the culmination of our week, when we realized the caterers had not shown up yet with our provisions. So we are still here.
That discovery led to a heated discussion with the food procurement department in which they pointed to the failure of the meals committee to approve the purchase of said provisions. So we improvise and entertain ourselves for a while.
Lists on parade
In the interim, we have decided that our regular Friday excursion should include “Lists on parade,” a quasi-regular feature, showcasing other creators’ valuable contributions to Medium. They (the contributions) may or may not be new to the world, as long as they (the contributions) are new to us. Please let us know of anyone we may miss and they will be mentioned next week. Oversight is never our intent.
I stumbled onto these great ones and feel compelled to share for an update or two...

New newcomers, followers, and subscribers on parade
“Newcomers, followers, and subscribers on parade,” will also be a quasi-regular feature showcasing recent innocent bystanders who have joined us recently. We appreciate them tremendously. I encourage your continued encouragement. As before, please let us know of anyone we may miss and they will be mentioned next week. Oversight is rarely our intent.
Coming Attractions
“Upcoming attractions too good to pass up.” These stories are in the process of being written, and will be published soon for your enjoyment. This too, may become a regular feature. “Previews without Trailers,” a daring look into the future is now.
Nashville SC developer wishes he had done a “Fair Park or something” instead of a big soccer stadium with no place to park.
Henry County schools closed for a fish-day today. Yearly “Worlds Largest Fish Fry,” an educational nightmare.
Customer groped in Walmart. “Where did he touch you?” asked the police. “Aisle 5,” was the reply.
Noodling for catfish in Tennessee, a sign of spring.
That's ok to leave me off the loop. I’ll just text myself.
Politics are the low-hanging fruit of humor.
Yes, these six coming attractions may smell a bit fishy, but it is that time of year.
Thank you.
