TBW Daily Diary

Keep forgetting to thank Jacquie Kirby Hensel publicly for the nice plug she gave The Bare Wall in this month's Re/Max Realty News. Very much appreciated . . . Two black teens in hoodies accosted a young man on North Street in the early evening yesterday. Blows were exchanged but the victim escaped. Two others (?) attacked a woman fifteen minutes later as she left her job at the hospital. There were several similar incidents out on the hill in the past 48 hours. Still no reaction from our mayor. It is time that we request National Guard assistance. I have lived here since 1962 and cannot remember any such crime wave by armed young people . . . Bob put up the store Christmas tree and decorated it this afternoon. Nice . . . Joe Kershner so enjoyed our link to The Four Freshmen singing It's a Blue World that he posted it on his FaceBook page. I notice that since the subject first surfaced there have been more than one hundred additional hits on that site. Think Joe and I can take the credit for at least some of those . . .
