My Reagan story. I was in a ladies card room picking up empties while everybody else was outside in a huge tent. Reagan was the main speaker that day. There was a French door that led to a driveway in the room I was in. Storm had come up and it was pouring rain. A limo pulled up and 2 or 3 secret service rushed in the door, looked around and backed me up to a wall with their arms in front of me. I saw someone get out of the limo and start toward the door with a trench coat pulled up over their head so I couldn’t see who it was. He came in, lowered the trench coat, shook like a dog and looked up at me with a huge smile and said.....nice day, huh? Then they rushed out.
Robin Williams was at one of his step parents birthday parties. Didn’t even realize it was him. Just knew he was familiar. We told him that and he said well I’m Robin Williams. We looked at him and said...Nuh uh. He laughed and said.....really. Then pulled out his drivers license to prove it. Lol. He was absolutely nothing like on stage. He was calm and friendly but kind of reserved that night. Maybe it was the function he was at. Mostly just family and friends.

Eddy Munster is a congressman. That’s how low we’ve fallen.

I have to admit I’d love to see someone in the military arresting these crooks. It seems that’s the only hope for this nation. And it will never happen. Not in a good way.

How about we just stop subsidizing food completely? Let’s get rid of the sugar tariff as well.

In the Midwest, farmers leading the way on solar power

In Washington County, Iowa, for example, farmers with access to an unusual and lucrative combination of federal, state and utility incentives were anticipating payback periods of as little as two years, according to Ed Raber, director of the county’s economic development corporation.
