No really officer...I always go for strolls at rest stops after dark...

Did anyone see last night's light show on Sandusky Bay? And I'm not talking about the fireworks and lasers out at Cedar Point.

There was a pretty good storm over Marblehead and a collection of cars watched the show from the Jackson Street Pier including myself and my camera.

I have always said, "Just one time, I want to be that girl, when I walk into a room, all the guys look at."

Here's one angle to the Cliff Lee trade that hasn't gotten much attention yet: Philadelphia Phillies fans love the trade and think their team got the best of the deal.

I am a busy and impatient person. Friends who walk slow invariably get wherever we're going 20 feet behind me.

The city's latest press release:

Freesia Jackson is an honor roll student and varsity athlete.

But the Virginia teen, who was suspended from high school earlier this year for taking a birth control pill during lunch, apparently has some comedic chops too.

A few blogs ago I talked about how I found exercise to be tortuously boring and, being the practical person that I am, decided to do something practical as my form of exercise. Walk-jog and pick up trash around different parks and neighborhoods.

The week for exercise went well as usual — five workouts, one was a 12-mile bike ride on the bike trail between Fremont and Clyde.

 As the warm sunny summer days speed past us, I am eager to greet this upcoming fall and winter with open arms.

Hopefully your first reaction wasn't to post distasteful comments about this tragedy:

Prayers for this child and his family are in order - not inhuman comments and fingerpointing before the dust even settles.

Nettiquette requires that you ignore internet morons, but I understand why Dan Kaman wants to set the record straight with "Montegobay" and "Joecitizen."  (My guess is that these two are either cops or firemen in Sandusky, but does it really matter?)

You probably noticed the hoopla on July 20 over the 40th anniversary of the first moon landing, but you may not know just how dangerous and difficult the Apollo space program was.

I have a better appreciation for it now because I've been reading Craig T. Nelson's "Rocket Men."

I really enjoyed your latest cartoon.

What do you think it would take to change the thinking in Sandusky?

Edmunds.com, a popular auto site, has checked the numbers that the Obama administration is giving out for the most popular model purchased with the help of "cash for clunkers" money. Contrary to what the administration claims, the most popular replacement model is an SUV.
