Welcome to Friday, April 7. Please look around and take it all in because its shelf life is only 24 hours.

Weather

50s with sun and clouds during the day.

Seven degrees of Rob Halford?

British Steel is the sixth studio album by the heavy metal band Judas Priest. Released in April of 1980, it was recorded at Tittenhurst Park, the home of former Beatles drummer Ringo Starr.

Welcome to the United States

Sooo, this week the former president of the country was arrested, we learned that a Supreme Court Justice accepted expensive gifts and private plane trips from a wealthy Texas real estate investor because he could and the Tennessee legislature expelled two representatives for using a bullhorn.

What are we going to do for an encore?

On this date in 1973

A Bristol group filed suit to stop the building of the “Woolco” Shopping Plaza because it would “pollute, impair and destroy the public trust in the water and or other natural resources.”

Don’t slouch, Bristol and see ya Monday if we are still here.


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.
