A quarter-century of change

The South Alabamian News Podcast ·

2024/12/31

In 1999, I was 5 years old, just old enough to sense the weight of the approaching millennium but too young to grasp its full significance. The world buzzed with a mixture of excitement and anxiety. I was told the Y2K bug would bring the collapse of modern society, that the internet would change everything and that we were standing on the cusp of something unimaginable. At the time, those were just abstract ideas, vague words with no clear meaning. Now, as I approach my 30s, the world I ...

2024/12/31

A church friend travels the country transporting automobiles for car dealers and told me, “There’s no good way to get to Denver.” I think he’s right. We trusted the GPS and found ourselves amongst lonely Kansas wheat fields and windmills for many miles. Actually, we intended to get to Denver in two days. Our son transferred there and asked us to drive his car. The first day was grueling as we drove from Birmingham to Tulsa. But then we learned the moving company wouldn’t arrive for another fe...
