Good morning everybody. Time for another recap from the wonderful blog posts and photographs and observations from my blog’s personal blogroll. Hope you all enjoy. Looks like WordPress did something AGAIN to fiddle with blog links (or what they call “a routine upgrade of services”), so if any blog links look wonky or incorrect, let me know…

Read MoreMaybe I’ll bring this back as a late entry for Competition Season.
The rotting carcass of Central Warehouse, a former cold-storage facility in Albany’s downtown district, has put the “sore” in eyesore for ages. And every company that purchased it has promised they would do something to revitalize it … and the edifice just stands there, oblivious to time and oblivious to renovation. So … now comes news…

Follow along with me on this. In my childhood years, there was a simple plan on who would take care of me. During the school year, I would stay with my mother and stepfather in whatever double-deep, double-wide trailer park they were located.

Read MoreHe entered my room, and I couldn’t move my body.
This happened two weeks ago. And even today, I’m still running it through my mind, trying to figure out what happened. Background.

Every year, Times Union sportswriter Tim Wilkin would take an “imaginary” $1,000 bankroll to the Saratoga Race Course, and through the run of the summer meet, he would bet his “imaginary” funds and chronicle those results in his daily newspaper column.
