WELCOME!
Thanks for stopping by The Franko Blog!

We will talk about everything from the news of the day, to random thoughts.  This is not a one-way conversation…I invite you to give me your thoughts on things I blog about, and things I don’t.  No topic is off limits!

BTW…disagreement is part of the game. But, please keep it clean. This is an all ages show!

Big dudes throwing telephone poles
If that sounds like fun for you...the Scottish Games out at Boone Hall are just the ticket. I tried it once about six years ago...my shoulder still hurts!

It’s the economy dummy!
