REALLY TACKY

If Linden were rich (and he is not) and if he had a son ready to start college (and he does not,) he would not willingly allow him to attend Yale.

Monday, as is his practice, Linden started his day by posting his blog and followed that by reading the morning paper and drinking coffee.

On the AOL “news” portion of the “welcome” screen was mention of Governor Sarah Palin being responsible for the “I can see Russia from my house” line. Reference to the same was made on page two of the morning paper.

Apparently this effort to downgrade the image of the Governor was the product of the editor of the Yale Book of Quotations. His name is unimportant here.

This is just another illustration of the effort by the left to detract from the luster of the Governor: They are failing in this effort and are looking foolish in the process.

Linden is not familiar with comedian Tina Fey, who uttered the line while impersonating the Governor, and he has not watched “Saturday Night Live” for years. He does occasionally read about those in various fields who are tremendously overrated.

LINDEN'S LIFE:
Joe Taylor returned the recliner he had picked up to repair and took the other one with him, also for repair. While here, we discovered that we share the same birth date. Although it is very cold out (come on global warming) a trip to the store and post office was necessary and I did some work in the barn. Not enough to make room to park my car in there. Received a very nice gift from Sharon: Three little pies from Zingerman’s bakery in Ann Arbor,Michigan. Ate half of the Chocolate Chess pie for dinner. Good!

GIFT GIVING?
Any of Linden’s six books or his first CD could be what you are looking for: They are inexpensive and not everybody has one.

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.
