COMMENTARY: MONEY WELL SPENT
Linden is not wealthy: far from it. But, in 2014 he did scrape together enough that he could make a modest contribution to several candidates he thought could effect a change for the better in governmental leadership. The article linked below indicates that he may have been correct in his assessment of at least candidate.

MOSTLY ABOUT ME lswift8@aol.com
Since my car had failed to make it home from church last night, Jack picked me up and we went to our usual Thursday breakfast meeting. Chuck also attended. Paul, Lloyd, and Bill were absent. Good meeting anyhow. Later, Kent got my car started and I ended up buying a new battery. In the evening I watched some of the Republican debates.

COMMENTARY: PORKER OF THE YEAR
This award is designed to call attention to the person who is most worthy of being designated as the one who failed to properly serve the needs of the taxpaying public. Not surprisingly, there are many “public servants” who should be considered when choosing the worst of the worst. What should be the result of being so dishonored? Since Congress controls the budget process, perhaps the answer if to penalize the agency or group involved. This answer calls attention to the folly of baseline budgeting.

MOSTLY ABOUT ME lswift8@aol.com
Wednesday started with biscuits and gravy at Chick-fil-A followed by trips to a grocery and the post office. Stayed busy at home until time to go to church for dinner and a study. My car wouldn't start when I left the church so I walked the short distance home in the cold.

COMMENTARY: THE LIBERAL 10 COMMANDMENTS
In our increasingly Godless world (Christian God anyway) there appears to be more people opposed to Christianity than there are those who believe. For centuries the Ten Commandments have been a central part of the Christian religion. Perhaps now is a good time to view how the non-believers would rewrite them. Read the linked article.

COMMENTARY: DISAPPOINTMENT IS PART OF AGING
Linden does not know why he is so disappointed with Sarah Palin endorsing Donald Trump for the Presidency...but he is. Linden has been an admirer of her since she first burst upon the national scene as the best of the 2008 Presidency related candidates. We, as a country have already experienced the bottom of the barrel in Barack Obama so in no way does Linden think that Trump would not be an improvement...it is just that he believes that Ted Cruz or possibly Carly Fiorina would be better for America. The article linked below may provide you with a better perspective.

MOSTLY ABOUT ME lswift8@aol.com
I slept poorly and was awakened the last time by the sounds of the snow removal workers clearing the snow from the parking lot. I got up about 5:30, tuned in Liz Nolan on RTE and attempted to nap in the recliner. Failed. At least some of the E-mails I send to not identify the sender by name and the recipient considers them to be spam: naturally, I'm not very happy about this but have no idea how to successfully address the problem. I had another call saying the IRS was going to sue me...I hung up. Again. I talked to Brian and in the evening had dinner and attended a study at church.

COMMENTARY: PREPARING FOR ADULTHOOD
This preparation should include the administration providing the students with the workforce related knowledge which would enable them to compete in an unfriendly world for a life's work that will come closest to providing them with their needs and wants. It is doing them a disservice if it instead attempts to create a group of whiners who are ill prepared for the workforce. The primary problem is the liberal bias of a high percentage of those who are supposed to be imparting knowledge. The article linked below addresses this very nicely. Perhaps the board of trustees of the school mentioned in the article should be held immediately responsible by the taxpayers.
..
MOSTLY ABOUT ME lswift8@aol.com
On Tuesday I was up early and soon after headed out in the cold for breakfast. I then went to two stores, the credit union, a bank, the post office, and then dropped off my recyclables on the way back home. There I talked to Brian for a minute and also got a call that informed me that The IRS was going to sue me: I hung up before the message was completed. In the evening I watched Indiana win their basketball game and caught a bit of Butler's losing effort.

COMMENTARY: THE GOOD OLD DAYS
Linden subscribes to The Indianapolis Star Thursday thru Sunday and does so only because he does not wish to interfere with the income stream of the carrier. It pains him to support what he considers to be a liberal rag. They appear to be rabidly opposed to Governor Pence and a featured writer is about as unbiased as...never mind. Linden's least favorite editorial writers are E. J. Dionne and Eugene Robinson...they appear to be the favorites of The Star. Robinson was the favored one on Monday: Linden read his effort while having breakfast. According to Robinson, one of the democrat Presidential candidates favors raising the federal minimum wage to $15.00 per hour, providing free college tuition (at least for some), and wants the wealthy to pay their fair share. Really dumb! Probably the same should be said of those who think the same. The good old days were prior to the present ownership of The Star.
..
MOSTLY ABOUT ME lswift8@aol.com
Monday began with me venturing out in two below zero weather for biscuits and gravy at Chick-fil-A. I had gotten up in time to hear almost all of Liz Nolan's radio show on RTE before having breakfast. Later, Tyler and Adriane Leland picked me up and we along with their two young ones went out for pizza and conversation. Good time! Brenda, the Secretary from my last full time job (almost 20 years ago) called while I was out: I returned the call and we had a nice visit...her health hasn't been all that good in recent months and is now recuperating from having a big toe removed. I also tried to call Alison who returned to college yesterday, missed her.

COMMENTARY: PAY THE PIPER TIME?
Over the years Linden has been critical of many things (and people), two of these things were government regulations and government spending. Often he would point a finger at those he held most responsible for their support of actions he believed to be most detrimental to the good of the taxpaying public. Almost always this person or persons were labeled as progressive democrats.
The well written article linked below elaborates on this general subject.
..
MOSTLY ABOUT ME lswift8@aol.com
Friday as usual started with the Men's Prayer Breakfast at 6:00. Back home, I napped then went to pick up my mail. Talked to Brian and received another unwelcome call from Cardholder Services.
Saturday I didn't realize how slick and icy it was until I got out of my car at Kingsway: we had a good meeting and I was careful driving home. Back home I went to a funeral at church, picked up my mail and watched some of Butler and all of the Indiana basketball games: they both won.
Sunday brought church and Sunday School attendance and, since it was cold and snowy, I returned home. Talked to Brian and, being a Peyton Manning fan, watched Denver win their football game.

COMMENTARY: THURSDAY'S TWO DEBATES
It is probable that any discussion related to this subject will contain some personal bias: this posting is no exception to that thought. The debate considered to be the undercard offered the views of three candidates: Carly Fiorina appeared to be the clear winner. She would probably be difficult for any other candidate to overcome in head-to-head competition.
The seven candidates vying on the main stage generally did a good job of presenting their thoughts and opinions. To this writer, Ted Cruz appeared to do the best. Most impressive were his mentions of the bias of the New York Times, matters relating to citizenship and gun control.
..
MOSTLY ABOUT ME lswift8@aol.com

Thursday started with breakfast with the guys then this was followed by a trip to the grocery and the monthly Golden Glows luncheon at 11:30 where Tyler Leland presented the devotions. He and his family will be sorely missed as he returns to his home church at the end of this month. At home I shoveled a bit f snow, Dan brought me a new snow shovel, Jason came by and returned my computer to service. Later, I talked to Julie and watched most of the debates.

COMMENTARY: A RECENT NOTE RE OBAMA
This note, from my Indiana 4th District Congressman, advised that HR3762 was designed to repeal much of Obamacare and also delayed federal funding of abortion services by such as Planned Parenthood. The Bill passed the House 240-181 with almost all democrats opposing it. Your President vetoed it January 8. It is hard to believe or accept that some will support this type of representation blocking.

Friday started with the early Men's Prayer Breakfast and when I got ready to leave the car wouldn't start: it was raining and Dave brought me home. Later, I talked to Julie and Alison.
On Saturday, Kent came, got the car started and I drove it to his house, we had coffee then he cleaned the corrosion off the battery posts and it starts like a dream. John took me to a meeting at the Legion Post then I went to Keith and Rosaleen's anniversary and birthday celebration at church. Dan came by for coffee, told me snow was expected so I put the car in the barn.
Sunday started with church and Sunday School attendance and when I drove back home the snow had made the drive outline hard to see, I went off the side and got the car hung up. John picked me up again and we went back to the Legion Post to help judge the really impressive four girls in the oratorical contest. I brought some food home, called AAA, and the car is in the barn again.

As you may know, Linden has yet to endorse the 2016 Presidential candidate but Ted Cruz has been one of his favorites since announcing. You may find the long article linked below to be interesting.

MOSTLY ABOUT ME lswift8@aol.com
Wednesday started with breakfast at Chick-fil-A followed by the mail pickup routine. Paul and I had lunch at CFA then he took me to my 2:00 eye specialist appointment. We were there a long time and didn't get back to Plainfield until after 5:00. So, I didn't eat dinner or attend the study at church.

COMMENTARY: SUPPORT STAFF COMPOSITION
If Linden were to run for a high political office you can bet that he would have high standards for his support staff: high morals, obvious decency and honesty and free from sexual perversions. Bill Clinton is a member of the Hillary Clinton support staff. Nuf said!!!

MOSTLY ABOUT ME lswift8@aol.com
Monday was a busy day...I was up at 5:00, went back for another nap about 7:00. Later, I picked up my mail, mailed a package to Alison, talked to Julie for a while and met Sam for lunch at the Milano Inn . Got back home about 3;00 and had a call from Cardholder Services on the answering machine, went to a bank and talked to Brian. I had many, many happy birthday messages. Later in the evening I talked a bit to Brian, Sheri and Marc: today was also Marc's birthday.
