VARIED INTERESTS
After performing the blog posting, Linden was at the restaurant for the usual Thursday morning breakfast meeting. For a change, all five members of this group were present and it was Linden's turn to offer the prayer and do the inspirational reading. Bill was scheduled to leave for the Ukraine later in the day and he and Barbara will go on to TCMI in Austria next week.
Lunch was the monthly meeting of the "Golden Glows", the group of mostly older folks within Plainfield Christian Church. It was a pitch in for which Linden had purchased a cake to take. The food was great but Linden was not the least bit hungry and he had not a bite of dessert - did have some cake to bring home and put in the freezer. The program was a singing and talking presentation, given by a local artist, on the subject of Women of the Bible. It was interesting and well done.
The afternoon brought, among other things, a meeting with the printer in regard to CD brochure production. There was a very minor change to the layout that Lisa had produced and Linden has hope that the finished product will be available before the weekend. An email brought an invitation, from Jennifer, to the annual meeting of Rubye's family. It is such a great family and, of course, Rubye was a great lady but the meeting would seem, to me, to be missing something major with Rubye not there. I will, again, probably not attend. It is great to be remembered.
The evening included a campaign affair for a candidate: It included some snacks. So, Linden required no further food for the day. Long before the day should have been over, it was time for bed.

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.
