Sue's Clues on Life

Thanks for the memories, everyone!Thu, April 9, 2009 @ 10:03AM This is probably going to come as a shock to many of you, but this Friday, Good Friday, will be my last day at The Weirton Daily Times after 22 years of working here. I've always hated goodbyes. But, I'm about to embark on very exciting major life changes: I'm getting married and moving to the Nashville, Tennessee, area! I'm marrying the "boy next door" - Anthony Jones - who once was actually the "boy across the street" while we were growing up. We sometimes played tag football (with my purple Nerf ball), tag, hide-and-seek and different games along with the other neighborhood kids when we were young. As time passed, we grew up, went our separate ways and met again last year at former reporter Giovanni P. Rossi's wedding. Anthony is Gio's uncle! We hadn't seen each other for about 26 years until that day.

Something for Nothing

Goodbye NetflixMon, February 8, 2010 @ 11:34AM After this month Netflix and I will go separate ways. It is not a good breakup. We both said some harsh words that we shouldn't have and must put the past behind us. It wasn't that long ago I wrote a blog about how much I loved Netflix. I think I would call that the honeymoon period. I quickly come to realize that Netflix cannot give me the movies I want. If I want to see a movie that came out last week I cant. Why cant i you ask? I cant watch a movie from last week because Netflix tells me it is a very long wait to see that movie. I have a movie on my list from early December that is still a long wait because I can see it. I put up with the wait situation for a little while because there were a good bit of movies that I wanted to see from last but when you get past the old movies and want the new releases you have a problem. I also have decided to jump ship because the waits are going to get worse.

Preparing for rain

Down the stretchMon, October 13, 2008 @ 10:34AM King football is winding down in Ohio and has four weeks left in West Virginia. Madonna hosts Toronto Saturday night. Give the 22 Toronto kids credit for sticking it out this season. That's not easy and they have done it. With 20 of the 22 coming back next season, I see a brighter future for the Red Knights. Gents, the hard part is almost over. Making it through this season shows a ton of character. Now, continue with that character and we'll see you in pads next Fall. The Blue Dons are on another run toward the West Virginia Class A playoffs. I like their chances. A brilliant job by Oak Glen to bounce back from an 0-3 start to be 3-3 and give itself a chance to make a playoff run with four games remaining. Coach Tony Filberto told the kids they would be rewarded with hard work and he was right. Congrats to the Golden Bears for turning this thing around. Now, keep it going.
