Readin’ My Sunday Paper and a Nation of Gold Diggers

A Chicago style voice riffs about sensational headlines and public figures like Zioncheck, mocking gossip pages and the hunger for celebrity. He laments the glare on divorce, crime, and politics while defending plain folks and a simple country life. The column meanders through jokes, local pride, and self deprecation.

Odds on that horse and a playful kiss line

Political convention musings and local tax notes mix

Sharpe surveys the Republican presidential race prospects naming Landon as a leading early nominee while noting possible ballots for Burzh Knox or a dark horse. He predicts mixed Western bloc influence and an East vice presidential pick, warns against a party split, and imagines policy battles on farm relief tariffs and imports. The column shifts to local weather, land lots, and tax brace ideas for Thomson and neighboring towns as a wearyAYS writer signs off.
