Updated late Tuesday: Well, I'm back from South Carolina with news, big news. Turns out THREE of the 25 or so Furman University students honored Monday night at the university's annual Academic Awards banquet were from Brentwood. Details coming right up ...

Sorry folks, there's no new column today. I'm headed down the road to Greenville, S.C. and Furman University to see son No. 1 receive an award. We have no idea what kind of award so I can't boast too much ... yet.
In the meantime, please don't let any big news happen while I'm away. I hate to miss any excitement.
