A few weeks ago I published a column discussing the apocalyptic advance of all things digital. The column highlights the recent decision by the Huntsville Times to follow a three day hardcopy publishing schedule beginning sometime this fall. In the column I chastise The Huntsville Times and Al.com for being impetuous in their publishing decisions: […]

Filling In The Blanks
Tinkering with my WordPress client a little at a time I realized that some folks subscribing to my HOT Uploads news feed might have missed some relevant content on the main site – www.tocc.tv. (More on this a little later.) So I’ve made a list of links here to headlines there that you might want […]
Neil Armstrong – Hero Of The American Pyramid
In MANY ways, he is the most identifiable icon of “the American
century,” and therefore, he will be one of the most identifiable icons
in all of world history…
Huntsville’s Race For Mayor
Many of you know I ran for mayor, legitimately and officially on the ballot, in 2000 and 2004. I regret my effort fell short, largely due to limited campaign funds, and a compromised posture that really didn’t allow me to ramp up heavy duty fundraising and campaign. As you know, Loretta Spencer is embarrassing herself […]
The Gestapo’s Convenient Cover
Will Culver, also black and a former police officer, has decried the behaviour of both officers and voted against their reinstatement, while noting that the council had little choice in Brett Russell’s case because of the precedent set just a week ago in the PJ Lee case.
Uncle Fascist Wants YOU!
Recently Alabama Senator Arthur Orr followed suit with other fascist socialists to require “restrictions” on how welfare recipients can spend the money. Well, no one thinks it’s a good idea to squander money on something frivolous. But, there are several problems with the approach. To begin with, there is a process of qualification that must […]
Huntsville’s Gestapo
Growing up and living in Huntsville I’ve always heard it said: The police department is a Gestapo. For the most part, I just figured someone who done something wrong and got caught had become disgruntled. Over the years, however, I have slowly, sadly, and surely come to another conclusion. That’s based on a couple of […]
The News Yesterday About Today
Did you know Huntsvillian? When you picked up this Tuesday morning’s hardcopy of the Huntsville Times, it was printed in Birmingham and shipped to Huntsville overnight! This new reality was announced yesterday in the Huntsville Times and in the wake of the announcement a few weeks ago that publication of the Times will go to […]
Roy Moore Leading The Blind Astray
Today’s newspaper reports that Roy Moore, (previously) Alabama’s “Ten Commandments” Supreme Court Chief justice is following in my footsteps declaring his approbation for and the virtues of the United States Constitution. His biggest concern is his perception that the states should have more authority than now afforded by the federal government. He is the Republican […]
NCAC Folly And Corruption
Response to E. Chris Newlin, executive director National Children’s Advocacy Center re: Letter To The Editor; Huntsville Times, June 6, 2012 The bottom line, Mr(s). Newlin, is for whatever apparently ineffective good the NCAC accomplishes, it is already deeply involved in“politically correct” child molestation on more than one level. Apparently, you’ve taken your cues from […]
What A Day – 2012, May 24, Thursday
The photographer in me beckoned. I was there, and so I whipped out my not very smart phone, and took a couple of shots. Doing a quick edit, I uploaded one to my fb page…
Thirty Pesos For Grinch
I have to admit I was a little surprised this week when Alabama voted for Rick Santorum. It was only in the last two weeks that he showed himself to be a religious nutcase when he challenged remarks by John F. Kennedy asserting separation of church and state, and his disinclination to take orders from […]
