I like to keep in mind ol' Jim Eason when I post on Free Republic. He was (and is) a gentleman to the core. He's retired now, but I still remember his radio show. He had a very gentlemanly persona on the air, and when I find myself wondering how to phrase things or how to reply to something that really annoys me, I'll think of how Jim used to put things, and then the reply usually writes itself. Anyway, that's what I do.
Eason was the first talk radio guy I listened to as a kid. Learned a lot on that program. KGO, I think.Thanks, BTW.
