Need more mental energy

This blog is NOT dead, but is troubled by having the main blogger, me, being occupied with other issues in life. I'm up for any guest columns and more then happy to allow other people to post here on Smyrna related subjects. Drop me an email at the link on the blog.

Spam in comments

There has been a slight increase in spam in the comments. Nothing major, but I am going to try to head it off a little by turning on the word verification setting. I'm sorry if this is a problem for anyone using Linux or other systems. I'm trying to keep a clean house free of un-needed and VERY questionable links for people to accidental come across.

Have a nice weekend and death to spammers.

Depot Days

Depot Days is just one day this year, and that leaves me a bit in a quandary.

I went to check out how much a table/booth would be. I have had the idea since I first first heard of depot days of setting up a "This is Smyrna, TN." table. Maybe print some fliers and even make a few t-shirts for sale. Kathy showed me how easy it would be to put some graphics on the shirts.

Regretfully they want $50 dollars a booth. Not a big amount, but I'm short of funds right now, and the timing can not be worse.

Options. Do I ask the rich readers(ha ha) of This is Smyrna, TN. to help fund it, or just walk through the crowds handing out some informational fliers?

Any suggestions? I see Depot Days as a chance to let more people know of this website and other connected web pages, and I don't want to miss the opportunity.

This is Smyrna is NOT dead

In the last many months we have had our whole writing group go through some changes. One has moved, one has a job that will limit their writing, and I have gone back to school to finish my degree(I hope). because of that our blog has slowed down noticeably.

While it is slower, this blog will be around for a long time.
