Thoughts While Shaving

How about the Astros?  Not my first choice but a very good one.  Can’t think of a community that needs a ‘lift’ more.  World Series Champs for 2017, defeating the LA Dodgers in the best of 7 series, 4 games to 3.  But, just wait ’til next year!

All kind of revelations from big social media companies about the influence of outside (Russia) sources during the last US elections.  Remember when you were encouraged to FactCheck?  It needs to be cleaned up for the good of our nation, and before the next election, whoever is involved, wherever it is happening.  Some prison time would be good for those that think the law does not apply to them.

Early voting in the municipal elections is coming to a close.  Vote today, 8:30 AM til 5 PM at the Bladen County Library, 111 North Cypress Street, Elizabethtown and from 8:30 AM ’til 1 PM Saturday (tomorrow).  Voting will conclude on Tuesday, November 7 at municipal sites across the county at the following locations:
Bethel township (Dublin), Lions Club Building
Bladenboro 1 & 2, Historical Building
Brown Marsh (Clarkton) Town Hall
Carvers Creek (East Arcadia School)
Colly (White Lake Fire Department)
Elizabethtown 1 (Bladen County Recreation Gym)
Elizabethtown 2 (Powell-Melvin Building)
Hollow (Tar Heel) Municipal Building.

Remember to change your clock (watch, whatever) Sunday morning.  Fall back!

Star Telephone Annual Meeting Saturday, November 11 in Clinton at the Sampson County EXPO Center, located on 414 Warsaw Road.  Registration at 8 AM, the meeting will be called to order at 10 AM.

High Football tonight:  West Bladen at East Bladen, last game of regular season.  Gametime 7 PM.

Personal note:  spent Wednesday night in Bladen County hospital, suffered TIA (mini-stroke), totally recovered, all is well.  Scarry, but fine.

We share grand children with Glenn and Betty Jo Cain of Bladenboro.  Tonight both families will be in Greenville, NC to observe presentation of White Coat to our granddaughter, (Morgan) @ ECU Dental School program.  Looking forward to happy occasion for a nice young lady, daughter of Rick and Caroline Hester and sister to brother, Brooks.

Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.  William Arthur Ward

If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough.  Meister Eckhart

Thank you for life, and all the little ups and downs that make it work living.  Travis Barker
