NO GUTS, NO GLORY
Some days ago, Linden posted that he was considering throwing his hat into the primary election ring for the 4th District seat in the U.S. Congress. Today, at noon, is the filing deadline and Linden ain’t gonna do it.

He had constructed a campaign strategy based upon a very low budget, accepting no contributions, and defining his operating intentions if elected. His primary purpose in even considering such an effort was to encourage candidates in other sections of the country by illustrating that it can be attempted using a low budget approach. This worthwhile goal was overshadowed by the fact that he would have regretted it if he should happen to win. He does not want to spend a lot of time away from Plainfield at this time.

LINDEN'S LIFE
Chuck made it back from his absence to join Jack and me for breakfast. Bill is back but went on a trip with the Golden Glows. The rest of my day was devoted to a bit of running errands and that kind of thing. Talked to Brian for a few minutes and exchanged emails with Julie.

GOOD WORKS
Thanks to those who purchased books or a CD or donated to the effort, we were able in 2009 to provide, through IDES, two goats, a water buffalo, and a fishing boat with net to needy families in third world countries.

In 2010 we will diversify this area of our good works. New recipients are:

January, TCM, Austria, ministry scholarship. http://www.tcmi.org/
February, local need, not part of original plan.
February, Hillsdale College. www.hillsdale.edu

The Book Nook, 33 E. Main, Mooresville is a local source of Linden’s books and CD.

Feel free to make others aware of this blog and our efforts.
