GOOD DAY START
Linden thought it was rather nice to awaken without a thought of recent happenings in the world of competitive politics. This lull in what seems like an endless campaign season is rather nice. He walked about a mile or so at Church then went to his usual Thursday morning breakfast meeting.
It was just Bill Chuck and myself: Jack had a scheduled out-patient surgery today and we did not expect Paul to attend. Bill gave the opening prayer and, later, the reading he had selected. It was just our usual happy time together: Lots of laughing and some pleasant interactions with those at nearby tables.
One topic of conversation was "time." Speciafically, views of the time involved in God's formation of the world in the first six days and how that time may be measured in present day 24 hour days. Since time itself appears to mean little or nothing to God (can we even imagine that,) perhaps his days at that time would represent thousands of years when measured in present day time. Interesting thoughts but, I suppose, it really does not matter.
Toward the end of this busy day, it was time to be snapped back to present time reality: Coverage of the bombing of a recruiting station in New York City was being presented in little detail. Let's see, would that be the act of one or more traitors or could it be world wide terrorism has invaded our shores again? Maybe we should ask Nancy Pelosi or Madman Murtha or others of that ilk. I justify this thinking by recalling that the main stream media was almost universally "convinced" that the Oklahoma City bombing of a few years ago was the work of "right wing conservatives." I could puke!

LINDEN’S BOOKS
“MIND OVER FATTER” written in 1983 as a contrast to a Jane Fonda book. She had a better publisher so sales languished. It, written in calligraphy, was the first to present the concept of vicarious exercise. “An approach to weight control and physical conditioning which provides solace for the sedentary – includes recipes and statistical political commentary.”
Author: Linden Swift. Available locally at Uncommon Corner in downtown Plainfield, IN or Secondhand Stories on Raceway road. Also online:

HELP WANTED
It appears that in the last general election there were no Republican candidates in 39 districts scattered across 15 states. These positions offer much more than just good pay. Some of these districts are listed below in State, District and general location sequence. Please help find a Republican candidate in these districts. Even if these districts can reasonably be considered “lost causes,” the effected taxpayers need to have a choice.
Pennsylvania 1 Philadelphia area
Pennsylvania 14 Pittsburgh area
Rhode Island 2 Warwick area
Texas 9 Houston area – One Found?
Texas 16 El Paso
Texas 20 San Antonio
Texas 28 Laredo
Virginia 3 Newport News area
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.
