Coble's Web Ad A rambling tale from bloggin' candidate Jim Capo, in which we learn that Howard Coble is doing an online ad via a site called policlicks.com, which will supposedly go live next week. Policlicks, founded by some appealingly ragtag local entrepreneurs, will run online political advertising. One note to Capo's post: unless these guys are working for a ghost or flying to Montana,  they aren't doing any painting for my grandmother, as my local grandmother, Isabel Frank Cone, departed this life in 1992. 6:10:39 PM   comment []

Bragging Rights Elijah and I went to the UNC-NCSU football game. The better team won, unfortunately. When Carolina scored to go up 17-7 in the third quarter, I told Elijah that they needed to hold State on the next possession to win the game. They didn't. The Woofpack marched right down the field for a touchdown, then right back into the end zone again after a UNC fumble, and the momentum had changed and the better team proved itself. It was still great to be in Kenan Stadium on a sunny afternoon, eating overpriced Chick-fil-A sandwiches and seeing some old friends in the crowd. I remember my first football game in Chapel Hill--a big win over VMI in 1970, and I hope Elijah is building some good memories, too. 6:00:52 PM   comment []
