A Retro Metro Column

AuthorBrick at its best is a Retro Metro Column. The rest of the time, Brick is a wordy blog.

Retro Metro refers to the tradition of print papers having one or more commentators prominent on a local news page — not the editorial page — several times a week.

Brick is independent, not affiliated with any commercial publication. Alas, the author is. He assumes readers of Brick can tell the difference.

This is the About the Author page. That’s him in black-and-white, an old column standing-hed mug shot. For more, visit the home page of the overall Web site.
