Interesting Program

 

Another good one! Dynda could talk forever, I think. We often forget that are judges are regular folks held to a higher standard. And she apparently lives up to it!

 

Thanks to those who served.

A horrific omission from those who worked at the Vinita Clean-up. Merle Dixon was there early and did his part. At least I think he did. Hi and Jack N. questioned his actual value but at least he showed up. Thanks again to all who helped out!

 

Service Above Self.

 

Have you noticed that every bill that comes out of Congress is at least 1,000 pages long? Seems interesting that often they vote on something they haven’t read. Seems they have forgotten the word “concise”, doesn’t it?

Thought for the Day

 

We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us really happy is something to be enthusiastic about. Charles Kingsley
