DailyKenoshan.com, New Year, 8th Anniversary, and Current Sale Status HAPPY NEW YEAR!  What a year 2008 has been for The Daily Kenoshan.  Many changes, enhancements, and the growth in traffic from Google and other sites, and many many new and interesting people who sign on and leave their imprint.  While the site continues to operate normally, many may notice that there have been some recent changes, such as the site news not being updated as regularly, and lack of direct leadership.  I apologize for that, and am very grateful for the support of so many sho contribute stories on their own, and continue to be vocal in the forums.

Tough Love pat.pngIt has been a while since I have posted and to the seven of you that regularly read my stuff, I am truly sorry for being remiss in my duties….trust me, there is a method to this madness.  Four very important football seasons are winding down and all four have been as good as they have been lacking in some specific areas.  In keeping with my theories of telling it like it is, I offer you this dose of “tough love”.

The Spot or Big Star? drivein.jpgOkay, I know that it is less than a week after Christmas, but I want to talk about Kenosha’s favorite drive-ins. Thanks to one of DK’s most prolific forum contributors, “aaa” and his frequent references to Big Star, I have had drive-in cuisine on my mind. Not that it takes a whole lot to get me thinking of food, but our friend “aaa” has given me even more impetus to do so.

 
Your Turn (Commentary)
The most difficult thing we do drphil.pngI’m not Dr. Phil.  I don’t pretend to have all the answers, nor do I know what’s best for everyone.  But I do know that communicating with others seems to be one of the most difficult things I do.  I know this because I flub it up on a regular routine basis.

Stay alive with "Stayin' Alive" I've written here before about a blogger group I belong to. The JT Irregular's Blogspot is an interesting mix of mostly Racine folks who came together to do a grab-bag mix of writings, all done with friendly overtones. (nice, huh?) Anyways, I read an interesting article one of the JTIer's posted today (HaleBopp-Sat. Oct. 19) that I found cool enough to snag to share here. Thanks Hale Bopp and JTI!
