With great change comes great opportunity.
Life and society may look a little different this year, but I predict a variety of new businesses, concepts and models will arise from the minds of the American entrepreneurs.
What they may be exactly . . . I don’t know. The new bunch of driven and creative innovators will come up with all of that, but those who figure out the new approach or product or service and how to sell during this time may be greatly rewarded.
I hope you’ve been catching up on your music, reading, movies and games lately. I don’t think I could ever get bored with Chopin, Connect 4, playoff hockey, chess and a guitar.
Have you cooked anything new this year?
Bracken Jr. suggests that I should prepare lobster thermidor. It sounds delicious, but a good deal of trouble and not a huge amount of meat.
We have been making some fine pizzas at home. He will show you how, on the Bracken Mayo Jr. YouTube channel. That homemade crust takes a little time as well, but he will eat the pizzas—not sure if he would try the lobster thermidor.
Zach (aka the Z-Train) suggests try preparing a nice beef Wellington.
Learn something new with your kids. Take some time to sketch or paint or finish a project at home.
The Murfreesboro area has begun getting back into a few local concerts and events. Gallagher Unplugged and Ridenour Studios are hosting some live music this month. Americana Sundays at Hop Springs continue with some excellent talent. Hank’s keeps a full schedule of local performers.
Enjoy outdoor music in Wartrace or out at FiveSense Farm over the coming weeks. The Lynchburg Music Fest offers a weekend of camping and country music.
Trivia has returned to Nacho’s.
And MTSU football is on track to begin soon. That stadium has been keeping fans safe for years and operating under 25 percent capacity for quite some time. Ahead of its time. Seriously though, support these guys. Go Blue Raiders!
Shawn Wright joins the Murfreesboro City Council after the August elections. Wright spoke against the council raising property taxes last year, and the voters recognized this.
A few million miles away we have a Perseverance rover and drone heading for Mars. It should arrive at the red planet in February. The Earthlings still plan to send humans out there, but still a decade or so before boots will be on the ground.
Prepare for some close-up images of Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, but it looks to be about 2034 before a drone will arrive there. It is something to look forward to, though!
Keep on doing what you can do during this Great Suppression.
Treat everyone right and love your neighbor, but don’t take nonsense from anyone.
Exercise that spirit of discernment. Know the truth, be strong, stand firm.
The Mayos should have some big news by next month!
