Big Think: Getting Drunk at The New York Times

Getting Drunk at The New York Times

September 28, 2009

Getting Drunk at The New York Times Gay Talese describes the tobacco-filled and liquor-drenched newsrooms of The New York Times in the sixties—where men passed out on typewriters, and no one was quite sure just how the paper actually got out.

Perplexing Situations… by Patricia A. Kelly

October 1, 2009 Perplexing Situations… Patricia A. Kelly:

“Writing a column is a very interesting occupation. It’s changed me. I’m more curious about the details of things, and in really looking for the truth among all the stories, charges, political posturing and innuendo. I work to insure there is truth behind my comments. I look for answers to dilemmas that face our society. Paying attention is exhausting, though, and the more you do it, the more discouraging things appear…”

From Sarah Abel DeLuca

Hello OTA Friends and Supporters,

In September I doffed my Off Track Art member hat to don a new one: that of #1 fan.

The OTA member hat was one that I was very proud and happy to wear, but when it became difficult to do justice to both my co-op commitments and my core artist activities -- commissioned painting and teaching -- I knew I had to let something go.

Fortunately, the decision was simple, though hardly easy. Capturing people's memories in paint (via commissioned painting) and helping them tap into their own artistic potential (via art classes) is not only my livelihood, it's my purpose in life. And I'm not actually losing anything by switching hats. As an OTA fan, I still keep in touch with my talented co-op friends, support their great venture, and mingle with the wonderful community of art lovers who make it all possible.

Thanks for your support and patronage, and I look forward to seeing you at OTA events! You can reach me at any time for commissioned paintings, classes (private or public), and speaking engagements:

Appetite for history and cuisine both satisfied in Union Bridge EAGLE ARCHIVE By Kevin Dayhoff Posted 8/23/09 Recently I have had the opportunity to travel several times to the western reaches of our fare county and one of my favorite destinations, Union Bridge. It's a great drive through the beautiful Carroll countryside, and once you arrive in Union Bridge you find yourself in a community steeped in tradition and history. It's always fun to take a walk on its historic Main Street, lined with older homes, and eat at the Buttersburg Inn. http://explorecarroll.com/community/3324/eaglearchive/

Dining at Bud’s at Silver Run

My Sunday, September 20, 2009 Carroll Eagle Archives column - http://tinyurl.com/yca3non - was about visiting historic Silver Run on Sept. 11, 2009.

I ended the column by sharing that another one of the great pleasures in visiting Silver Run is, you guessed it, eating. And why not; Silver Run happens to be the home of one Carroll County’s elegant fine dining experiences, “Bud’s of Silver Run.”

Alaska Daily News: Julia O’Malley Hey Truck Dude, some things are best left in the garage

Hey Truck Dude, some things are best left in the garage

SEPTEMBER 27, 2009 http://community.adn.com/adn/node/143778

Dear Truck Dude,

You were the one on 15th Avenue about two weeks ago on a Friday. I pulled up behind you around Karluk Street. I had a headache. You had plastic man parts hanging from your tow hitch.

It might not have bothered me, as I have seen this kind of thing before, but it wasn't just you, it was also the dude next to you. And so I was trapped, staring into a vortex of swinging truck junk until the light changed.

My aching brain filled with one alarming thought: Is this going to be a trend now?

I mentioned your bumper ornament to a coworker a few days later. He said, "Oh, you mean TruckNutz." And so I Googled. It was a trend. The Nutz, which are widely available online, became a big thing last year during the presidential election after someone suggested Barack Obama get some so he could better relate to rural America. And a few states moved to ban them from the roads. They were kind of 2008, but like every other thing that becomes a thing Outside, it appeared they were catching on here 2000-late.

My Sunday, September 20, 2009 Carroll Eagle Archives column - http://tinyurl.com/yca3non - was about visiting historic Silver Run on Sept. 11, 2009.

I ended the column by sharing that another one of the great pleasures in visiting Silver Run is, you guessed it, eating. And why not; Silver Run happens to be the home of one Carroll County’s elegant fine dining experiences, “Bud’s of Silver Run.”

EAGLE ARCHIVE By Kevin Dayhoff Posted on http://www.explorecarroll.com/ 9/20/09 (Enlarge)

In a quaint small town in northern Carroll County, Silver Run, happens to be the home of one Carroll County’s elegant fine dining experiences, “Bud’s of Silver Run.” (For more about “Bud’s at Silver Run,” call them at 410-346-6816 or visit them at http://www.budsatsilverrun.com/.)

Silver Run is about eight miles north of Westminster and perhaps 20 miles south of Gettysburg, on Littlestown Pike. You will find it nestled perfectly in our county’s beautiful countryside. It is a little town that looks so pretty, you’d think that Disney or a movie production company built it.

However, it’s real. Apparently I’m not the only fan of Silver Run and Bud’s; it seems that many folks have already discovered the place. Not only was the restaurant full the evening I went, but we recognized many familiar faces there.
