I hope to be as nerdy of the highest order about my work as reporter Alison Parker and photographer Adam Ward were about theirs. The two news pros who were taken from this life today leave the world entirely too early and less informed. May their spirit live on by every student of mass comm and journalism who will follow in their footsteps. They are just signing off for now, they will be seen again in eternity.

It’s National Dog Day 2015!
August 26th is National Dog Day and I want to celebrate our dog Cody for being a good boy. He is a big, lovable Labrador mix who enjoys toys, food, treats, playing and going outside. Cody also likes barking at stuff too which can be good and bad! Today is your day Cody and other dogs around the world too!
Prelude To Fall
The temperatures and humidity have come down over the past couple of days. This evening there is a bit of a chill in the air. Could it be that Fall is around the corner. Lets hope the weather is Fall-like. I am ready for a cool down around here. But this is Tennessee and there are still surprises in store.
