FIRST APRIL WEEKEND
Linden's Friday started with the early morning Men's Prayer Breakfast. This was followed by blog posting, paper reading, candy purchase, and his mechanic turning off the "check engine" light. About ten years ago Rubye gave me a percolater: It retired six days ago. Linden found a replacement in a cabinet - and had no idea how long it had been there or from whence it came. It retired today! Bought a new one: Gotta have coffee. Performed just a bit of campaign work today.
On Saturday, Linden drove through dense fog to a men's meeting at the Avon church. The check engine light came on again for just a short time. Back home, read the paper took a nap, and mailed the State tax report for his publishing empire. Then, drove to Indianapolis to resume looking for black dress shoes. The salesman showed an acceptable pair ($100.00) and was told that less money and leather soles would be preferable. He showed a pair with leather soles priced at almost $400.00. Linden said he would sell his feet for that much money and bought the first pair he was shown.
Linden loves horse racing and watched some on TV in the late afternoon. In the Wood Memorial, his choice for winner finished second. In the San Anita Derby, Linden would have boxed three horses in an exacta bet: Picked the winner but his other two finished fourth and fifth and he would have lost, again. Zero for two in 2008! On the plus side, it turned out to be a gorgeous, sunny Spring day.
On Sunday, went to Church but, having slept poorly and almost going to sleep in the service, did not stay for Sunday School. Took a long nap shortly after returning home. In the afternoon, performed some minor campaign tasks and read the paper. Attended evening services.
Yesterday at the shoe store, Linden picked up one of those free left wing democrat papers. The editor used some very inappropriate language and bragged about disrupting conservative speech. It reminded me of a similar paper read on my trip to the Northeast last fall. These are the type people that are controlling the present democrat party. What a pity that so many Democrats can not see what has become of the party they support. Blind on purpose!

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.
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.
