Chuck Hinman, IJMA: Kissing in my family It's Just Me Again by Chuck Hinman : Kissing in our family The next previous Chuck Hinman column:: Chuck Hinman: IJMA 103 : Honeymoon Memories By Chuck Hinman MY FIRST KISS (with a real girl) Contrary to the impression I may have left with some of my readers, I was not one of the parties involved in the first kiss, it was Adam and Eve. My first kiss with a real girl friend was in the fall of 1939 at Peru State Teachers College, Peru, Nebraska. I nervously planted one on Elda Wyatt after walking her to her residence hall. I believe we had been studying together (wink) at the Library.

Victoria Pike: First report, Democratic conventions Despite the biggest day in Kentucky Crescent City history since Kentuckians carried Andrew Jackson to victory in the Battle of New Orleans, Adair County Democrats had good day with party conventions. How Mable and Ella Conover separated their bulls and cows. How dangerous it must have been for Mr. Grover Gilpin separating fractious Democratic camps. Comments re article 50969. The year when Democratic precinct conventions were Huge Deal By Victoria Pike We didn't quite have that type of turnout yesterday for the conventions as the one in that mysterious year referred to in "The year when Democratic precinct conventions were Huge Deal," but we did well for a busy day in Adair County and Kentucky. Sure did enjoy reading how things use to be. I have heard tales of Miss Mable Conover being able to separate her cattle by telling the bulls to go one way and the cows the other but I didn't know that Mr. Grover had the same gift to separate opposing Adair County Democrats. I figure that could just be downright dangerous. Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2012-04-01 12:20:15 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Politics

Carol Perkins: Only $29.99 The too good to be true Free offer was too good to be true. The devil was in the details, Carol Perkins discovered, with this caveat about Tv hustles (holds true for other media, including internet. -CM) The details on the $29.95 steal were, in reality, more like the price of an airline ticket to Texas. But to know details of the rest of the story, click on the headline for full column. Carol Perkins columns are frequent features on Sundays with CM By Carol Perkins I was all set to buy it. Guy handed me the phone, read the toll free number from the bottom of the TV screen as I dialed, and handed me his credit card. Only $29.99. Amazing offer for such an item. I predicted it would be more like $150 but then most paid programming items are $19.99 so $29.99 sounded like a steal!
