It’s Thursday, so place your bets. Ours is on Friday.

Today’s special guest is 58 and showers. 

Lyrics 

“What are words for when no one listens anymore.”

Missing Persons, 1982

From the desk of Aeschylus 

“It is not the oath that makes us believe the man, but the man the oath.” 

They said it

George Jetson:
I’m going to Cogswell Cogs to see about a job.

Mr. Spacely:
You mean you’d work for Cogswell after all this? You’d forget your dignity and go crawling to him for a job? You’d do THAT for a few miserly dollars a week?

George Jetson:
Uh-huh.

Mr. Spacely:
Wait for me, Jetson, I’ll go with you.

The wisdom of Screwy Louie

Question: how many 2x4s does Lowes sell in a given year?

Screwy: I bought four last year, so at least 4.

All ashore going ashore 

In the words of Brooke Goff,” take pictures,” and maybe we will see you Friday, Bristol.


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
