Well, some of you are going to be disappointed. This column isn't going to be just about politics this week, except- After we had gotten out the newspaper last week on Tuesday evening, which wears this "ye scribe" out, I went home early. I wanted to see the great debate between McCain and Obama. I watched the pre-show, switching between the networks. More ... The good people at Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream have been making frozen goodies at their Vermont commune for 30 years. The product is great, but Ben & Jerry's doesn't stop at ice cream. The company is as politically active as any in America. More ... To Mr. Terry and the people of Colquitt, I guess some of you have forgotten.

Went to morning services at 11 o'clock in Damascus to the church where I was a member when the family lived in Early County. They had Family and Friends Day. The Rev. More ...
