Huckleberries Online

Inside Huckleberries

4:57 p.m. I'm halfway through ex-CDA Press reporter Brent Andrews' book, "The Pot Plan." It's a bare-all book about teen drinking, the punk scene, rehabilitation, jail, and (I hope somewhere in the next 200 pages) redemption. It's well written. At this point, I'd give it a thumbs up -- and I haven't gotten to the juicy part about the Press, yet. Yeah, I know somewhere in the pages ahead, Brent's going to recommend pot as a remedy for alcohol addiction. Stay tuned.

3:38 p.m. I wished the North Idaho College Sentinel was up-to-date online. I'd provide a link to a front-page photo of some guy in drag, grabbing his crotch through a pink mini-skirt. Cutline? "What lies beneath." Over the top, Sentinel. Go stand in the corner.

12:38 p.m. Side Note has come in from the cold. And he was right. I'd never have guessed whom he is. He brings a load of good stuff to this blog. Welcome, SN.

12:15 p.m. Blog numbers have remained good: 25,137 for last week, with a high of 5417 on Tuesday and a low of 2789 on Sunday, April 10. Weekday average: 3977.
