The slogan on this blog as been "Musings from a variety of people from Delaware County" now for over ten years. Two other people who have authoring rights have not posted in quite some time, and I remind myself that I also have not. People change, their schedules, jobs, etc change.
I am looking for a few people who would be interested in posting their "musings", i.e, whatever is on their minds. From Lifestyle to Politics, Religion to Race, from what made them happy to what pisses them off.
What I would not want is the old "cut and paste" posts, like I see on Facebook (I do it there also), or the overuse of " the "N" words, as in Nasty. So think about it, and shoot me an e-mail, or respond right here.
Finally? You have to live in Delaware County, or at least have lived here in the past and have some interest in it.
Cheers.
Musings from a variety of people from Delaware County, Pennsylvania.

The Daily Times Needs YOU!
As I sit here on a half decent Sunday morning, I checked out the Daily Times web site as I usually do every day. I see that Phil Heron, editor of the times is pushing his recruting drive to have local people (like me) to join the ranks of "Community Journalists ". People like Lou Mahlman, Buck Fleming, KatieRose Keenan, Eric Koehler, and Jennifer Hoff have answered the call. My question is: Will the Daily Times staff feel threatened by them? Am I crazy here? Nope, you see the days of print (as in newspapers) journalism are slowly dying, replaced by facebook, myspace, twitter and other online mediums.
Journalist like Alex Rose (Who interviewed me several years ago about our website) have great talent in reporting and commenting on a story. To read it online just isn't the same as sitting in my van in the morning, drinking a Wawa coffee, and reading it on paper. I am afraid (some beg to differ) that the newspaper business is going to the wayside of the typewriter and shoe repairman. Only time will tell.
Oh yeah, and if anyone from Delaware County wants to contribute here? By all means you can contact me at frannyward@yahoo.com . You MUST have a blogger or gmail account because Google bought Blogger and now Google is demanding it. Oh how I miss the typewriter.
Cheers:)
