Thursday, Aug. 1 was one of those days.

I know there are many people who would challenge me on that, and that’s fine. But I rarely can get enough sports talk, and I enjoy watching just about any athletic event, though nothing beats football on the weekends.

It’s almost over, and then we can all take a deep breath until November.

A cooler was found on the side of road, and a dead newborn was inside, leading to a 14-month investigation. A 19-year-old woman was eventually arrested and charged with murder.

I was trying to take my mind off the stresses of the world at a too-late hour, well beyond the time I should’ve been in bed.
