MAKING LISTS
Sure, Linden is haphazard, at best. He thinks that he leads a busy life and just can’t get it all done. Perhaps he needs to hone his list making skills. The Republicans, as a party, are not much better: they need to notify the voting public of exactly what is, to them, the most important five or six initiatives they will pursue if they win control of either legislative branch.

The democrats appear to be much better at list making, if nothing else. Every thinking person in this country should know that they fully intend to raise your cost of living, raise your taxes, curtail your freedoms, support law breaking illegal immigration, enforce mandatory unionization, oppress Christianity, support waste of taxpayer money, and weaken our national defense. They are not real good at rational thinking but they sure can make lists.

Last Monday, Linden made his initial list making suggestion. He expects to, starting next week, make the development of this list an ongoing part of this blog effort.

LINDEN'S LIFE
Some months ago I started my Friday music links relating to a year of my life. Last week I was up to 1946 but I neglected to write a thing about my life at that time. So, I’m redoing it this week with a different song.

I was 16 in January of 1946 and started my senior year in high school in the fall. Not exactly sure when it started but I had a girl friend that I liked a lot but we broke up after school started because we went to different high schools. She lived on the near North side of Indianapolis and I lived on the far South side. I think this is the year that I bought my first car: it was a 1933 Plymouth and was not very dependable. I didn’t get a drivers license for several years.
I worked at a grocery store and at a bottling company within that summer and about the time school started I got a job as a night janitor at a department store. Naturally that knocked out any kind of a social life in my senior year. I don’t remember driving to downtown Indianapolis for my night work but I surely remember the long walk home, late at night, from the end of the bus line. I did barely manage to graduate with my class but had absolutely no future plans.

Paul was missing from our Thursday morning breakfast meeting but the other four of us made it. Enjoyable time! Went to the post office and got some BP gasoline. Watched a televised Colts game while listening to an Indiana University football game in the evening.

REACHING OUT. I normally contribute modestly in a number of areas. Now I also contribute a portion of book sales income to new or enhanced areas of support.
