2008 LINDENWOULD AWARDS

WOMAN OF THE YEAR
Emerging on the national scene in a blast of glory, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin dominated the news and areas of desirable conservative speech and action after being named to seek the office of Vice President. Continuing left wing oriented sniping at her nicely illustrates the fear this group has of her success.

MAN OF THE YEAR
He may have been involved in a lackluster campaign and his stance in regard to many conservative values may be suspect or even defy logic but, his naming of Governor Sarah Palin to be his running mate earns John McCain much forgiveness and the award.

STRIVING FOR MEDIOCRITY AWARD
With daily reporting of job losses, business and personal failures and disasters and a worldwide depression rearing its ugly head, one must look for the cause and for those most responsible. This writer shares the opinion of those who believe the collapse of the American housing industry was the primary cause and that Chris Dodd (D-CT) and Barney Frank (D-MA) are deserving of primary blame for this matter. Those who voted for this duo in their most recent elections share the blame. Therefore, a total of 1,126,093 candidates and/or voters share this award.

LINDEN'S LIFE:
Friday: Started work on roughing out the publishing empire taxes, received Julie’s Christmas card which had a great picture of Jade on it, finished reading one of the B. M. Bower books Julie got for me, and Paul Johnson brought me a gift he and Mary had selected.

Saturday: Was pretty much a replay of Friday activities.

Sunday: Church and Sunday school, watched a Colts game after reading the paper, talked on the phone, etc. Although I don’t remember exactly, I suppose I fixed delicious meals on all three days.

GIFT GIVING?

The CD “Songs A Poor Old Police Department Retiree Might Write While Waiting For His Meager Pension Check” features Linden’s original compositions. The book subject matter ranges from political through poetry, baseball, prayer, cryptograms and Linden’s pilgrimage in Spain at age 75.
