CONTEST #1

If this were a strictly political Blog, Linden's posting today would address the South Carolina democrat results. Since he thinks that the election of any of these candidates would be a disaster for America, he will select another subject. How about a caption Linden's photo contest? At a recent Thursday morning meeting, Linden told Bill and Chuck (Jack and Paul were absent) about his idea for a contest. They pooh-poohed his idea and suggested the photo caption contest. They won. So, caption the picture of the old man shown in the picture on the upper right of this page. The best image of this picture is at our 10-23-07 posting.

Alabama 5 Huntsville – One Found?
Alabama 7 Birmingham

Florida 2 Tallahassee – One Found?
Florida 3 Jacksonville
Florida 17 North Miami
Florida 19 Boca Raton
Florida 20 Pembroke Pines
Florida 23 Fort Lauderdale – One Found?

In recent ratings, the Council for Citizens Against Government Waste Considered 32 of the present officeholders (democrats) to be hostile, 6 unfriendly, and 1 lukewarm to taxpayers. The National Taxpayers Union granted a grade of “F” to 36 of this group while 3 of them rose to a “D”.

WHAT IF?

Surely you believe that the liberal dominated news media is very, very selective in what “news” they will print or report. Have you noticed the absence of reporting about the improved situation in Iraq? There are, of course, other examples but Linden will assume that you can think. WHAT IF, you complained to the lackluster “news” provider and, if satisfaction is not obtained you then call those who advertise in that medium? Your message could be something like: “ I am disappointed that you choose to advertise in or on …. Who will not report…. Perhaps this approach would pay dividends in the form of less biased news coverage.
