Stupid me! I voted for Gerald Ford and Carter won. I voted for Ronald Reagan twice and he won. I voted for Reagan because I liked him in the Bonzo chimpanzee movies. No other reason. I do though regret not voting for Jimmy Carter. Obviously the most thoughtful candidate in the mix. God bless JimmyContinue reading “Jimmy Carter”

Book Report No courtroom drama. No arguing attorneys. Just banter, bluster, and bereavement. I would call this where “Friday Night Lights’ meets “News from Lake Wobegon.” But yet it is writings from the famed attorney author, John Grisham. It goes something like this, former football jocks return to hometown to pay respects to their belovedContinue reading “Book report”
