Milestones can creep up on you

“If you miss the train that I am on, 

you will know that I am gone”

From Peter, Paul and Mary from 500 miles -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADN1lLEp3H0


“When I wake up, well, I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you”

Another 500 Miles performed by the Proclaimers -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbNlMtqrYS0 


“My name is Robert Wilson

I'm from Eau Claire, Wisconsin

I've been living out of a

Suitcase now for fourteen days…”

3,000 miles by Ellis Paul ->  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13AHwW076Ao

 

“Do you love the rain, does it make you dance

When you're drunk with your friends at a party?

What's your favorite song, does it make you smile?

Do you think of me?”

10,000 hours by Dan & Shay with Justin Bieber  -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EAliOfw_2w 

 

“It was just after dark when the truck started down

The hill that leads into Scranton Pennsylvania.

Carrying thirty thousand pounds of bananas.

Carrying thirty thousand pounds of bananas”

30,000 pounds of bananas by Harry Chapin -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8I-zPmTPzM 



So all this by way of a milestone I happened to notice.  I had created 30,000 posts for Franklin Matters. https://www.franklinmatters.org/


I report on what happens in Franklin, providing citizen journalism with plenty of help from dozens of informers, readers, listeners, and commenters.


It results in a daily newsletter published successfully for 5,429 days

(and yes, that number increases each day),


That means an average of 5.5 posts per day covering meeting notes, sports results, press releases and all that matters in Franklin.


It is a labor of love and care as my public service effort for Franklin and I can't do it alone. We can always use your help.

 

How can you help?

  • If you can use the information that you find here, please tell your friends and neighbors

  • If you don't like something here, please let me know


Through this feedback loop we can continue to make improvements. Thank you!
