SPARE THE ROD: The value of pieA lot of serious issues face the General Assembly this year, but the one that, in my heart, is most urgent is this: State Sen. Allen Paul, R-Richmond, is the driving force behind an effort to make sugar cream pie the "Official State Pie." Uh, I'm sorry ... I made a mistake ... SUGAR CREAM PIE!! Family and friends know that this particular East Central Indiana delicacy is one of my weaknesses. (The complete 457-page list of my weaknesses is available upon request.) It is a sweet, soothing yet elusive slice of divinity that calms the nerves and enriches the soul. It is baked and sold by a legendary factory within state Sen. Paul's domain: Wick's Pies in Winchester. I'm proud of my Hoosier heritage, and I support Allen Paul in this noble endeavor. And should Wick's Pies send me a case of frozen pies just for writing this, I would refuse to eat them. All at once.

Polar Plunge
Rod, if you do happen to jump into the frigid waters of the Water Bowl on Jan 31 I invite you to stop by Second Harvest Food Bank to thaw out in our freezer. We are right next door! I bet someone will have to chop a whole in the ice at the Water Bowl before anyone jumps in - be sure you have a rope tied around your waist so they can pull you out. It is going to be soooo cold. But, hey, another good cause and if you do it I will donate $20 and if you take a tour of Second Harvest first (I know its a Saturday but who wants to miss a Polar Plunge) I will up that to $20.99!
