Good morning, Bristol!

It is Monday, so turn your head to the side and cough.

Weather

Monday can’t make up its mind with a mix of sun and clouds. High of 54.

What to look for this week

Aim your klieg lights on Tuesday, Election Day. Will the Republican’s dominance continue, or will there be a new sheriff in town?

Word cemetery

Bantling passed away in the 19th century after a courageous battle with the lexicon. A word for young child, its highwater mark was being published in The Salamanca Corpus: Provincial Words and Expressions Current in Lincolnshire, 1866. It was survived by banting and bantoid.

How often should you…

You should restring your guitar every 3 months or every 100 hours of playing.

Pull the plug

Chin up, Bristol. Tomorrow Never Knows.


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.
