All the Best, George Bush
Tuesday, September 19th, 2006
I never cared much for George H.W. Bush, our 41st President. I thought he was stiff, condescending, and ineffective. But I just finished listening to an audio CD of All the Best, George Bush and my opinon of Bush as a man has completely changed.
This book is comprised almost solely of letters that Bush has written throughout his life, intermingled with diary entries he made during some of our nation’s most historic times. By the nature of how this book was comprised, I was confident that these writings reflected the true nature of President Bush. Read the rest of this entry »
As you read earlier, Ashleigh and I visited the grave of Oliver Hardy’s mother during a brief stop in Atlanta on our way to the Augusta Sons of the Desert Convention. Following that, we headed to the airport to pick up my friend Bob. We had made good time getting to Atlanta and finding Miss Emmie Hardy’s final resting place, so we had plenty of time to visit the Jimmy Carter Library.
In about a week, I am taking a trip to Plains, Georgia for the annual Peanut Festival. This will be my third trip to the town and my second to the Peanut Festival. On Saturday, President Carter will do a book signing and I have been purchasing many of his books. I found that on Amazon, many of these used books go for anywhere from one penny to a few dollars. So far I have been very happy with the quality of these used books (and some audio CD’s).
