Wisdom and Wit by Carl Karlburg and Rooney
A compiled column blends Andy Rooney on prayer in public life with light corporate humor and brain teasers. Rooney defends brief prayers at games and cites rights, then shifts to jokes about wages, downsizing, and Christmas quirks. Riddles pose as tomorrow’s certainty and a moment for reflection.
