Counting down the months

February 22, 2008 - 1:53pm — Brandon

It’s almost March, and you know what that means, don’t you? Of course! We’re almost into one of my favorite parts of the year – the unabbreviated months.

From a newspaper standpoint, there are a few months out of the year that are never abbreviated, no matter what the context. Those months start in March and run through July, and thus make up some of the best months out of any year.


School board changes meeting time

January 15, 2008 - 6:35pm — Brandon

The Jordan School Board will meet at 6:30 p.m. Jan. 28 instead of at 7 p.m.

The board decided to push its meeting time forward, because the Jordan Jaguar basketball team will tip off against Minneapolis Roosevelt that night, which Superintendent Larry Kauzlarich said is one of the biggest games of the season.


Watch out

January 7, 2008 - 12:54pm — Brandon

Six months ago, I broke my watch. Last week, I got it fixed. It felt like a phantom limb regenerating when I returned it to my wrist for the first time. 


Making time to read

January 7, 2008 - 12:38pm — Brandon

I don’t always make time to read, but I do always make time to buy books. That’s why I have a shelf full of books that I’ve bought and not yet read, and why the number of those books keeps growing.

It’s like shopping while you’re hungry – it’s never a good idea, and you always end up with more than you really need. The problem is, I’m always hungry for books.


Watch out

June 19, 2007 - 10:16am — Brandon

While I was on vacation, I broke my watch.
