Good morning, Bristol!

Here it is, Friday again. First and 10, let’s bust a play here.

Weather

A mix of clouds and sun. Windy. Gusts up to 40. Monday, trouble brewing.

Seriously?

In the U.S., over 10 billion paper bags are used every year.

Bring in the lefty

There are at least eight left-handed presidents: Garfield, Hoover, Truman, Ford, Reagan (born left-handed but switched to his right hand after pressure from teachers and parents), Bush (HW), Clinton and Obama.

From the desk of Plato

“Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle.”

Say goodbye to Hollywood

Another one is in the books. GMB is out.


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.
