It’s scary to take a real close look

November 23rd, 2008

After church, Charlotte and I were in the Hollidaysburg Winterfest Parade. It was an honor to be the Grand Marshal this year. I had to wash the truck before the parade and get the signs, decorations and candy ready. We had a good time and the people were real nice. Now that the elections are over, Pennsylvania’s papers are writing about more state government stories than they were but still talking a lot about the now President-Elect. The Vince Fumo trial is getting a fair amount of attention as his former and present girlfriends and staffers testify both for and against him. At this point, it looks like he will be going to prison for a long time to come, a death sentence given his age and health problems, but we’ll see what the jury says. Sometimes you need to step back and look at some of the people you work with at the capitol, it’s scary to take a real close look.
