Whitley and I recently helped save a friend?s life. It’s a strange feeling. We don’t feel heroic, only grateful, because he’s one of our favorite people.

We didn’t run into a burning building or jump off a bridge into icy water. We accepted an invitation to a beach house a few weeks ago and had a lovely, lazy weekend with our friends. While chatting in the living room, the husband happened to mention some annoying symptoms he’d been having for years.

Whitley recognized the problem immediately because he’s had the same symptoms of a troublesome prostate, the curse of middle-aged males. We urged our friend to have a blood test to check his PSA level and make sure he didn’t have cancer.

On 11/17/00 Whitleysworld published a story about numerous UFO sightings in Texas and Oklahoma that included accounts of a massive UFO being observed in Elk City, Oklahoma, and a series of extremely bright flashes of light in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

We normally follow up on reports like this, and have been unable in either case to obtain any information about such events from any source other than the original sources mentioned in the story. Therefore, we cannot confirm these stories at this time, but will provide further information if we are able to do so. However, it should be remembered that UFO sightings are fleeting events, and often it is extremely difficult to obtain supporting testimony.

Thirty seven years ago today, as of the moment I just put pen to paper, John F. Kennedy was shot dead in Dallas, Texas by unknown assassins, for unknown reasons. From that moment to this, the American Presidency has been an institution in decline.

The decline actually started in November of 1960, when Mayor Richard Daley of Chicago stole the election for Kennedy. Richard Nixon, who, despite all his faults and failings, was at least a statesman, declined to contest the election, instead conceding and then quietly attempting to prove voter fraud or get recounts in various constituencies.

This fascinating insider’s story of the recount process in action has been prepared by Democratic activist Angela Glover Blackwell. She makes no secret of which side she’s on, but she provides all of us with an inside look at what has so far been a pretty mysterious process. What’s actually happening in the world of chads, dimples and the future of our country? (Bear in mind that this is from Thursday the ninth, so it’s a little out of date as news, but as insight into the political process it is timeless.)
