Joe Lanier Son " * gff* I know most folks in Duplin slept better this_ past weekend. Three of Duplin's county commissioners'were supposed to go off to Washington to a "legislative meeting." If Reagan's bunch don't have things in enough of a mess, we sent our crew to help. . .But, knowing our Crew's record from the trips they have been on in the past, i I think we can rest easy, for they probably spent more time ' sightseeing and having a good time than attending meetings. I used to think it was wrong for the commissioners to go off to these supposedly business meetings, spending tax monies. However, after last year's venture, we know they are off enjoying themselves rather than in business meeting, and we just may be better off because of that. Ain't-no telling what kind of ideas they might have gotten in one of those meetings. .. Donald Blackburn and PeeWee Turner have this basketball-betting business down to an art. Donald is a Carolina fan while PeeWee is a State fan. Several years ago they placed a dollar bill in a picture frame and when State won, PeeWee kept the dollar. When Carolina won, Donald sot the dollar back. The score of each game was written on the dollar. The only thing changed was the background. When Donald had the dollar, Carolina was the winner and the background was blue, but when Pee Wee had the dollar, the background is changed to State red. So, the same dollar is just passed back and forth as one wins and one loses. However, being fans, they sometimes get carried away.. .Donald hates to give up the dollar, but he hates even worse for PeeWee to change the background. . .So, he devises ways to keep PeeWee from being able to get into the frame. This last time, a week or so ago. Donald welded metal strips around the frame after building a box for the whole thing. I am sure PeeWee has gotten into the frame and changed the background to red. . .And. when the two teams meet again, if Carolina wins, I have heard that Pee Wee is going to set the frame in cement. . .Of course, Donald says if he does. . .and he loses again, he is going to Billy Kennedy's and have him crush a car around it.. .Who says losing isn't fun?... 19th Hole, ??
