WHUT IS HAPPNIN' TA TH' MEAN MR. GREEN? -- Just A Minute Radio for Wednesday 100714

            It’s a BEAUTIFUL day in the neighborhood… if you like mostly dry hot weather…

 

            Well… enough talk about the weather… Looking back over the last few days and the conversation written down, you’d think I work for NOAA weather radio or something similar.  It has been hot and dry and a bit humid all at the same time.  But “Even this shall pass away…” as the old poem goes. If you don’t like the weather – just wait a while.

 

            Yesterday we did have some storm-watch boxes over the Carolinas… but the rain was apparently anything but general… quite spotty… and ‘hailey’ – no offense to one of the gubernatorial candidates who has a similar sounding name. (J)

 

            Today Earl ‘n’ Lester’s Bait Shop and Sushi Bar crowd at ‘Playfair’ seem to be a throwback to a couple of weeks back when the runoff election was held and Mr. Greene surprised us all (perhaps including himself, although he does not say so) to find he finished first on the Democrat Senate Ticket.  At first there was a muffled roar of “What Happened?”  Which since has died down considerably – and yesterday I saw Mr. Greene in a suit and tie heading out – on TV – to the hustings to address the NAACP chapter at Manning, SC… so he does campaign after all – even though no one so far has been able to put their finger on just where he went or what he said.

 

            Nonetheless… I’m sure candidate DeMint will not take his opponent lightly – and will take the requisite steps to fulfill his campaign pledge and meet and greet and shake hands with all that time will allow.  In fact he’s done a lot of that in Colorado already and probably will do more. I just get a chuckle out of those who are wondering just what is happening – I think it’s pretty evident… and I think Mr. Carter will be happy to have someone at least in SC who will take his place as the candidate of Malaise at least on the local posters.  Now that’s not a prediction – just an observation.

 

            Friday I’ll be at Ft. Jackson (DV) with a couple of Gideon buddies and we’re scheduled to be giving out some of our small Gideon New Testaments in Cameo for the troops there. It’s my first time to take part in that exercise and I’m looking forward to it.  I’ll have a report for you next week. 

 

            God bless you all and enable you to *enjoy* the wonderful SC weather in JUNE… maybe the worst of it’s over… unless it’s not. (L)

 

            Cordially, IN HIM
