A GUY WHO OUGHT TO KNOW BETTER !!!!! V2.0
------------- ADDED NEW INFO------------
LETTER APPEARED IN 1-19-16 ISSUE
What follows is something I sent to the Shawnee News-Star Letters to the Editor. I feel very strongly about each American having the right to speak their mind. Also, I am very surprised at the stance taken by the publisher. This Letter to the Editor is a tongue-in-cheek attempt to maybe save his job. I think he had a bad day or stayed up too late watching WWE! No self-respecting newspaper person would ever deny the ordinary Joe a right to speak. Even if this never sees ink, he will be shown my letter by the editor.
I ADMIT IT! I TOOK THE BAIT!

Even if this never sees ink, he will be shown my letter by the editor.
I ADMIT IT! I TOOK THE BAIT!
OK! OK! I admit it! I was fooled! Publisher ****'s January 14th column "Leave political commentary to the experts" caused me not only to rise to it, I responded to it by adding this comment to the internet version of his column:
"Hold on there Pilgrim!" The professionals have led us to the brink of destruction. Somewhere I remember something about "WE THE PEOPLE." I recall a Flower Power VW mini-bus that passed me in 1968 with a bumper sticker that said "MY VOTE CANCELS YOUR VOTE!" In America every vote counts; every American counts; and every opinion counts! Remember---Joe the Plumber had a right to speak his mind.
All weekend I kept asking myself why would a bright, young newspaper publisher whose principles and pocketbook depend upon Freedom of Speech write such a column? Was it to hasten his departure from Shawnee? Not very likely in view of his concern for our community. Was it an attempt to stifle Letters to the Editor? No! He knows next to Obituaries the Opinion pages are close behind in readership. What then was the motivation?
Sunday afternoon it finally hit me. The column was a ruse. A canard. A false flag. A very skillful think piece to awaken the public to their rights and responsibilities to become more---not less---involved in the political process.
Publisher ****, you fooled me! A big salute and a tip of the cap for reminding us what a wonderful country we live in.

JENNINGS COUNTY ROYALTY REVEALED !!!!
Like most residents of Jennings County, Indiana in the 1950's my knowledge of royalty was limited to the Country entertainer "The Duke of Paducah" and Queen Elizabeth II who took the coronation oath in 1953. A girl in the 4th grade at Lovett Grade School kept a scrapbook of this historic event.
Later, Grace Kelly and Lady Diana gave all Americans another glimpse into the royal society.
Prince William and Prince Harry showed us the human side of British Royalty
Recently discovered stone tablets reveal that only Jennings County in Southern Indiana had a thriving Royal society. This discovery is not mentioned in any history books because of Americans aversion to Royal rule. King George III learned that the hard way.
The tablets are still being decoded. However, enough has been achieved to reveal some of the personages of the Royal family. Here is what we now know::
Baroness of Butlerville---Very beautiful but given to unusual behavior.
Viscount of Vernon---Spent most of his idle hours cat fishing, gathering mushrooms, and staging mock battles.
Countess of Commiskey---May have developed the first B&B in North America.
Princess of Paris Crossing---Strong advocate for education and liked long haired guitar players.
Prince of Paris---Filled with ambition and sought to make his area the capitol of the Kingdom.
Lady Lovett---Played the field, married, but never found her true love.
Lord Lovett---His goals and horizons too big for Lady Lovett. Married, but never found his true love
Maid Marion---Thought to have been distant relative of Bonnie Parker ---Her 3 sons were Boyz of the Hood!

10 Questions about your Neighbors
UNLESS YOU LIVE ON AN ICEBERG, YOU HAVE NEIGHBORS. WHAT KIND OF NEIGHBORS DO YOU HAVE?
1. Are your neighbors Hopeless? Helpless? Hapless?
2. Your neighbors are hosting a backyard reception for their daughter's wedding. Would you Turn on Your Lawn Sprinklers? Call 911 to Complain of the Noise? Send your Large Drone over to Drop Rice? In the 5 lb box?
3. Would it bother you if your neighbor's 20 foot Boa got loose? They started a backyard Hog Farm? They replaced all of their outside lights with Red Bulbs?
4. Your neighbor's 14 year old Geeky son develops a water balloon launcher that will send a water balloon 1/2 mile. Chances are he is in store for a full ride to MIT? Presidential guided tour of the White House? Six months in Juvenile Detention?
5. The wife next door looks like Bridget Bardot at 27. The husband looks like Captain Kangaroo? Freddy Krueger? Gabby Hayes?
6. Would you loan your neighbor your leaky canoe for their vacation? Malfunctioning GPS unit? Out-of-date first aid kit?
7. Your neighbor is nearly killed in an auto accident. Would you send a large Venus Flytrap to the hospital? Mow their 8'X10' front yard for $100? Pickup their mail and read it?
8. The teenage daughter of your neighbor throws some loud Wild Parties when Mom/Dad are away. Would you call 911? Call their house to complain? Order $250 of pizzas to be delivered to their house (COD)?
9. Your neighbor always borrows your fishing rods for his family's Colorado vacations. Without him knowing it, you replace the 15 lb test line with 1 lb test? Call the Colorado Fish & Game and report him as a serial poacher? Ask him to loan you his new Lexus for your 3 month Alaskan fishing adventure?
10. Your neighbor has a yard that looks like a Nat Geo location. To encourage him to clean it up you could: Place a dozen pink flamingos in the front yard? Start a neighborhood rumor that you have discovered gold in your backyard? Secretly nominate his address for "Yard of the Month?"

NFL Fans At Their Worst
I am not a big NFL fan. Not a big NBA fan (have seen the OKC Thunder once). But I am a big Cincinnati Reds fan.
On the NFL front--I do look at the Dallas, Indy, and Bengals scores. The Cincinnati Enquirer had a story January 11, 2016 that addressed the conduct of fans when the Bengals lost again in the playoffs.
Six gents were arrested, Interestingly, the complaints were:
Gentleman (?) # 1 "....punched the woman in the head, causing her to fall to the ground, according to court documents.
# 2 is accused of punching a woman in the face as he exited Paul Brown Stadium around 10
#3 he urinated on the person in front of him in Paul Brown Stadium. Cooke,
who wore a Bengals hoodie
Police said David Grillo, 25, of Belle Vernon, Pennsylvania, walked up an aisle in the stadium and threw a beer at a fan during the game. Grillo was wearing a black jersey at the time, police said, and his Facebook page indicates he is a Steelers fan. The beer hit the fan in the face and caused lacerations, police said. Grillo is accused of assault. His court date is not yet scheduled.
A Cheviot man who wore a black shirt to the game, is accused of head-butting a man in the face. Phillip Ross, 29, was arrested at Paul Brown Stadium and is accused of assault. His Facebook page suggests Ross is a Bengals fan.
Andrew Robles, 28, of Allentown, Pennsylvania, was being ejected from the game for an unknown reason when, police said, he escaped officers and punched a woman in the face.
