Pastor Roach sends addresss for cards to Delphus Frankum To ColumbiaMagazine.com By now most of Adair County knows that Delphus Frankum had a massive heart attack on Thursday evening. Delphus became exhausted and complained of shortness of breath which led to his heart attack. Delphus was flown to Audubon hospital in Louisville, where he remains. Initially, Delphus was completely unresponsive and was on large amounts of pain medicine.Today, he is on no medicine, his heart is beating for him on its own; however, he is on a ventilator which is doing about 60% of his breathing. The exact extent of trauma caused by the heart attack is not known at this time. Occasionally he is responsive, but only very slightly. He will move his feet, open his mouth, but he remains unconscious. If anyone would like an update you can call me at (270) 384-6467 or if you would like to send the family a card you can do so at: Audubon HospitalBecause He Lives, s/Dean Roach 2008-06-25 09:41:25 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

Letter: Reader why gnat missed in photo To ColumbiaMagazine.com Damn fine photograph. But did you not miss the gnat crawling behind the fifth blue berry from the right? s/Tom Full name and address of bookstore owner in Horse Cave on file Of course we saw it. And all the others in the picture! That was to have been our contest. The gnats weren't on the blueberries when we got them at the Farmers Market. Got on in the truck. Flew in from Hart County, we think. Your keen eye reminds me of the photograph the late Dr. Steve Aaron ran in the Edmonton Herald-News when I was editor there and went off to summer war with the Campbellsville National Guard. He found a file photograph of sun streaming through a hickernut tree and filled a news hole with it and ran this caption to this effect: "Can you count the squirrels in the piss-ellem tree?" There were many entries. The highest count submitted was five, with locations in the branches precisely identified. I had a hard time re-establishing editorship after the bump Steve Aaron gave to readership. He's still remembered by many in the Free State of Metcalfe County as the paper's greatest editor ever, next to Albert Van Zant, in that fine journal's history, even though he was only there part of three days. -Ed Waggener 2008-06-25 02:46:15 | Comments | Printable version
Comment: Reader says detergent will make tick turn loose To ColumbiaMagazine.com I have never tried this, but I have read several places, if a tick bites, and stuck, do not pull off with fingers, as it is likely to pull it away, leaving his head imbedded in the skin. Take a cotton ball, soak it in Dish detergent, Place it on the tick for a short time, and the tick will stick to the cotton ball, and will be removed safely. s/Georgia Hatfield 2008-06-25 02:35:48 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
