McCULLOUGH: Tougher steps needed to stop copper thefts
1 Comment
Last Updated: 7:49 PM 08/19/10 - Of the many things my stepson’s father left behind when he died suddenly last year was a big box of copper wire. He worked on construction sites and had picked up scrap pieces of wire here and there, winding it into spools that he kept in a big plastic tub. A few months after my stepson inherited that tub we took it to a scrap metal place to sell. (Full Story) |

McCULLOUGH: Going to miss springtime at the racetrack in Atlanta
Last Updated: 7:12 PM 08/05/10 - March 10, 1996. It was a Sunday morning. I got up before the sun came up. I was a couple of weeks shy of my 25th birthday, but like a kid on Christmas Eve I’d barely slept because I was so excited. (Full Story) |

McCULLOUGH: Hospital’s anti-smoking goal is noble, but oversteps its bounds
3 Comments
Last Updated: 8:10 PM 07/08/10 - This week Gwinnett Medical Center implemented a new hiring policy that prohibits employees from smoking, not just at work, but anywhere, ever. I’m usually against any public entity trying to legislate behavior of any kind unless that behavior causes harm to others.

McCULLOUGH: The ties I mind
1 Comment
Last Updated: 5:14 PM 06/24/10 - I will never care about soccer. No matter how many times uber-hip TV sports guys tell me I should. No matter how many co-workers chastise me. No matter how many media outlets make a big deal out of it, no matter how many stories I hear of people buying big TVs or taking time off work, no matter how many times I hear “it’s the most popular sport in the world.” I don’t care.
