So, bitch, bitch, bitch, didn’t all them slaves bitch about broke up families and sending they baybee to be raised by someone else…

Huntsville, Alabama – home of NASA, Rocket Scientist Werner Von Braun, The US Space & Rocket Center, Redstone Arsenal and King Cotton – provides many stories that are locally inspired but that are often of national interest as well. Topics include current Mayor Tommy Battle, The Historic Huntsville Depot, and picturesque Big Spring Park.
Huntsville Depot Ghost Train
I would like to tell you about all the planning and expensive equipment that went into capturing this shot, well actually two shots, but I really can’t. It was strictly serendipity.
Eric Rudoph In Huntsville
Going back into the morgue I decided to pull out these already published photographs of Eric Rudolph from 2005 when he appeared at the Huntsville federal courthouse for pre-trial hearings.

But of course, there are so many who didn’t come home, and so many who come home with enduring injuries, and so the sadness of war remains – victory or not.
Obama Wins The Simmering Wrath
It isn’t the historic first term of the first black president of the United States. But, it might be considered the historic first term of a new president of a new nation.
Debate II – Ho Hum Conundrum
Rancorous maybe, but I really didn’t see the second debate as exceptional amoung debates. Obama did as expected. He sharpened focus and displayed more assertiveness. Romney was predictable as usual, flip flopping consistently. Neither offered any new information, and only reinforced their agenda in the debate. No wonder then that the media, and some of […]
WHERE’S MY DAMN PAPER!
Well. I don’t really react that way since I usually read the complimentary paper at the burger breakfast joint. Usually, it’s just another customer obnoxiously hogging the premium still sitting on his otherwise empty table…
