Welcome to Thursday, Bristol. Hope you have a great time while you are here.

Weather

Clouds with occasional sunshine. Scattered showers during the day. Tomorrow night, well that is a different story. Periods of heavy rain and gusty winds. By Friday a.m., all is well.

Interesting fact

Marsh Road is 5,500 ft long.

They said it

“But lately there have come upon the scene apostles of fear who would have you believe that our city is doomed unless they can take over the reins of government. They, without any experience, admittedly know all the answers.

“They would have you believe that they could turn Bristol into a utopia blinded by their own egotism, they really believe the myth they themselves have created.”

Bristol Mayor, James P. Casey, Aug. 30, 1959 (Speaking about his opponents in a coming election)

 “Sometimes they write positively, and sometimes they write negatively. But from a pure business point of view, the benefits of being written about have far outweighed the drawbacks.”

Donald Trump, (The Art of the Deal, 1987)

Biden has had trouble answering reporter questions. He’s decided that from now on, his earpiece will conduct press conferences for him.

Another interesting fact

Marsh Road is still 5,500 ft. long.

Are you kidding me?

No, time to go, campers. See ya, Friday, Maybe.


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 no limits.     

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.
