Good morning, Bristol! – March 8, 2024

Forestville | Staff

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.  Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do. Whoops, wrong show.

Weather

54, and get this, mostly sunny. Seriously. We are not kidding.

Put a stamp on it

Dear Spring:

Hurry up.

Thanks.

Sincerely,

The staff of the GMB

According to a little birdie

Hooo boy, trouble is brewing.

What’s the trouble? No idea.

Who is in trouble? No idea.

Where is the trouble? No idea.

There’s just trouble. Okaaay.

50 years ago today

With 11 seconds remaining in their Class B quarterfinals game, St. Paul’s Mark Noon hit a 10-foot bank shot to lift the Falcons over Notre Dame 72-71.

Seven days later, they went on to capture the state title. As for Notre Dame, Ara Parseghian retired and was then in “Rudy.” Oh wait, sorry, wrong Notre Dame and wrong sport. The Falcons beat Notre Dame of Bridgeport. Never mind. We got our signals crossed. Zzzzzhhh.

Soupy Sales time

Have a weekend and engage, 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.
