Good morning, Bristol!

Hello everyone, and welcome to Monday, Feb. 6. It is playing for a limited engagement only.

Monday agrees to appear and perform to the best of its abilities and customary standards. In return, Monday expects no unfair comparisons to Tuesday and no comments about having the “Monday Blues.”

Let’s get on with it, shall we?

Weather

50, sunny with clouds. Or, Clouds with sun, if that’s your thing.

Place your bets

What are the odds the mayor says codify this week?

100 years ago, today

Temperatures hovered around zero in the a.m.

Beginning at 7:30 p.m., the city council held its monthly meeting in the council chambers. Mayor Dutton delivered his “annual message” at the meeting.

From the dust bin of the word museum

Wee-wow: Wrong unsettled state.

Shopping days

Only six shopping days until the Super Bowl. How long before Hallmark gets into the Super Bowl Card business?

Do yourself a favor

Got to YouTube and type: Yuja Wang, Flight of the Bumble Bee. My God.

But don’t stop there (Tchaikovsky: Piano concerto No 1).

The song remains the same

Just look at the time. Mm-mm. The staff of the GMB is headed to go weather balloon watching. See ya, Bristol.


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 four (4) articles per week.                
  • Free readers and people who have subscribed by email will be able to access four (4) 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.
