Tonight - Cold Case

by Staff Writer

Given the football delays that usually occur, I’m doubting I’ll see much of Cold Case tonight. I have to admit that I’m growing sick of the delays with footballs. At least the political debates are over!

In the meantime, I’m finding that I almost prefer the other channels that are starting to syndicate some of these shows - USA, TNT, TBS— I can usually watch last year’s shows on these channels during the early evening hours. That helps. I ran into an issue with taping shows via Dish Network - late at night they run their maintenance programs that require your satellite box to be reset (push select) and that screwed up a show’s taping last week. Instead of my show, I got an hour of my show and then four hours of a screen telling me to push select. So now I’m really not happy and thinking of checking out Comcast when they finally are set up here.

I know some say they watch all their shows on the computer, with a family I can think of far better ways to be spending my time. When my kids come home, my computer turns off, that’s a family rule.

Anyway- my thought today has been about some of the real Cold Cases out there. The shows good, but one case has always stuck in my head. When I was in the 6th grade, one of my classmates suddenly moved away, never to be heard from again. Our teachers told us that he’d moved to Florida and then told us that no one was to talk about it.

It wasn’t until almost a decade later, possibly two, later that I learned his mother and younger sister had vanished into thin air. His father remarried and moved to Florida. He was now wanted in their disappearance only he had vanished too.

I’d love to see that show featured on TV. They’ve yet to find the father and hopefully some day they will…
