Good morning, Bristol!

Hello Bristol. How do you do?

GMB ain’t feeling so hot.

Speaking of the weather, 67 degrees and mostly sunny today.

Did you Ever Notice?

Newspapers use the worst photo they can find.

Coming Soon

On Oct. 3 at the Manross Library, historians and genealogists, Diana Ross McCain and Carol R. Whitmer will present an illustrated program regarding what monuments to the dead and what the words on them reveal about a person, and the clues they provide for further research. You can register at the Manross Library or by calling 860-584-7790. That number again 860 584-7790. One more time for the folks in the back 860-584-7790.

On this date in 1942

Madeline Kahn, American actress, comedian and singer is born.

Word you had no idea existed and if you did, you probably did not care because you never used it in a sentence not because you do not want to but because you did not have to:

Paradiddle

par·a·did·dle

/ˈparəˌdidl/

It is one of the basic patterns (rudiments) of drumming, consisting of four even strokes played in the order left-right-left-left or right-left-right-right.

Tagging Out

That does it for Good Morning, Bristol. Au revoir.


All TBE readers, supporters and donors

The Bristol Edition will be limiting the number of stories non-members and free readers may access each week. This decision is based on our financial projections and, most certainly, to remind people that TBE is serious about providing accurate, timely and thorough reporting for Bristol. To do this we have devised a financial support structure that makes unlimited access extremely affordable, beginning with a $6 monthly donation.

  • Non-members will be able to access eight (8) articles per week.
  • Free readers and people who have subscribed by email will be able to access eight (8) articles per week.
  • Donors and financial supporters will have unlimited access as long as they log in.

Note: Donors may have to contact TBE if they find they are being limited, since we will need to set up a membership account for you. Email editor@bristoledition.org for instructions. Sorry for any inconvenience. People with financial difficulties may write editor@bristoledition.org to be considered for free access.
