Don’t look now but Turkey Day is almost upon us!
In just a few days — earlier in some homes where cooks prepare food well in advance — ovens will be heated up, cooktops filled with pots and pans and everyone will be eagerly awaiting the fun, food and fellowship which comes with one of this country’s favorite holidays, Thanksgiving.
GOOD MORNING: The weekend weather outlook: Sunny and mild with daytime highs in the mid to upper 60’s and overnight lows in the 40’s.
Tuesday night (the wee hours of Wednesday morning actually) was a horse of a different color, however. My little weather alert radio sounded off shortly after midnight Tuesday and for the next hour it was one severe weather watch/warning after another.
Oh, please, give me a break. Better yet, give all us Americans a break.
Just when we thought it might be safe to actually watch something on live television again now that those infernal, relentless, misleading and sometimes downright false political advertising commercials were gone, we’re hit with something new.
RALEIGH – The classic spy show “Mission: Impossible” was exciting, excellent – and misnamed.
At the beginning of each episode, the Jim Phelps character played by Peter Graves would receive a recording that laid out a seemingly impossible mission. After the tape famously self-destructed within five seconds, Phelps and his team would then show that the mission wasn’t impossible at all. Just really challenging.

LOUISBURG -- When most coaches look at Jeremy Atkinson, they seem to feel an instant need to program him into a perimeter player’s role.
Atkinson has always dealt with this dilemma, as, with his 6-foot-4 size, he never appeared tall enough to battle with the big boys in the paint.

LOUISBURG -- A few early-season scrapes can often pay off long-term dividends -- and that’s something Head Coach Mike Holloman hopes will happen for his Louisburg College Lady Hurricanes during the 2010-11 campaign.
With frontliner Ariel Phelps sidelined for three games with a back injury, Holloman had no choice but to increase the responsibility level of his unproven but potential-rich guards.

BUNN -- Few athletes in the history of Bunn High School can boast the jack-of-all-trades excellence of Melanie Davis.
A senior, Davis just got done helping lead the Ladycats to an impressive volleyball season, which featured Northern Carolina Conference regular season and tournament championships.
If you look at the football schedule on Louisburg College’s website, you’ll see that the Hurricanes’ final matchup of the 2010 regular season was last Saturday.
But another big date wasn’t listed on LC’s ledger, and that will be this coming Tuesday.
That’s when the Northeast Conference will hold its annual postseason meeting on Long Island, New York.

BUNN -- Andre Davis has indeed given an Extra Effort in assisting the Bunn High School football team during the 2010 campaign.
