Re- Red Griffin PHS Trojan- Thanks Jack H Plymale!
Re-Our departed Portsmouth Ohio heroes.
Thanks Jack! I remember Red being on the Trojans. It seems that you, Jim Fout, and Doc Yeagle mentioned him at the OSU football game we attended together. Great story and you make me see that run! I also slightly remember Betty Justice. I did not personally know Sarah Watkins, but it must have been among the very greatest war reunions ever for Ed and the
Griffin family. Burl Justice and Watkins Buick are also familiar in P'Town. Red had excellent friends as you testify of. I am sure that my departed Mound Park friends, Gib Lakeman, Gus Thompson, and Clark Rapalee could tell some wonderful stories of him.

Sam, one of my old Portsmouth friends, now departed, you might have known. and could very easily fit that category.The most unforgettable guy I've ever met. If you check with Jim Fout, I think he'll support me in that opinion, He lived on High St. His name was Harold Marvin Griffin. You would know him as Red.All our teacher called him Marvin. He had an older brother, Ed who was reported missing in action twice in WW II. His Mom and Dad received two separate missing in action notices. He came home to marry, Betty Justice the daughter of long time Scioto County sherrif Burl Justice. Red, if you can believe it, was 128 lb tailback on our undeafeated Trojan team in1944. Second string to Dave Thomas who was 185 and the fastest guy on that team. There were three or four guys faster than Red, but two of them couldn't catch him in a phone booth. We were playing at Springfield and had the ball on our own thirty yard line and Red ran the ball off tackle and broke through the line to make one of the most amazing runs I have ever seen The records say he went 70 yards but he must have run 140. Some of their guys missed him twice. We roomed together for awhile at OSU but he couldn't stand being away from his girlfriend so he came home and married her. She was Sara Watkins whose father had the Buick dealership in Portsmouth. Red might be the only person I ever knew that somebody, at some time never said a bad thing about, He died in his 60s. I'm guessing.Red was a special person, not many like him,but I think there were enough people that were close and that is what made Portsmouth such a special place. Jack P.

The Scrap Yard... Thanks Dr. Hovermale!
The Scrap Yard
Once upon a time the government had a vast scrap yard of old airplanes in the middle of a desert.
Congress said, "Someone may steal from it at night."
So they created a night watchman position and hired a person for the job.
Then Congress said, "How does the watchman do his job without instruction?" So they created a planning department and hired two people, one person to write the instructions, and one person to do time studies.
Then Congress said, "How will we know the night watchman is doing the tasks correctly?"
So they created a Quality Control department and hired two people. One to do the studies and one to write the reports.
Then Congress said, "How are these people going to get paid?"So They created two positions: a time keeper and a payroll officer, then hired two people.
Then Congress said, "Who will be accountable for all of these people?" So they created an administrative section and hired three people, an Administrative Officer, Assistant Administrative Officer, and a Legal Secretary.
Then Congress said, "We have had this command in operation for one Year and we are $918,000 over budget, we must cutback."
So they laid off the night watchman.
NOW slowly, let it sink in.
Quietly, we go like sheep to slaughter. Does anybody remember the reason given for the establishment of
the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY..... during the Carter Administration?
Anybody? Anything? No?
Didn't think so!
Bottom line. We've spent several hundred billion dollars in support of an agency....the reason for which not one person who reads this can remember!
Ready??
It was very simple..and at the time, everybody thought it very appropriate.
The Department of Energy was instituted on 8/04/1977,
TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL.
Hey, pretty efficient, huh???
AND NOW IT'S 2010 -- 33 YEARS LATER -- AND THE BUDGET FOR THIS "NECESSARY" DEPARTMENT IS AT $24.2 BILLION A YEAR. IT HAS 16,000 FEDERAL EMPLOYEES AND APPROXIMATELY 100,000 CONTRACT EMPLOYEES; AND LOOK AT THE JOB IT HAS DONE! (THIS IS WHERE YOU SLAP YOUR FOREHEAD AND SAY, "WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?")
33 years ago 30% of our oil consumption was foreign imports. Today 70% of our oil consumption is foreign imports.
Ah, yes -- good old Federal bureaucracy.
NOW, WE HAVE TURNED OVER THE BANKING SYSTEM, HEALTH CARE, AND THE AUTO INDUSTRY TO THE SAME GOVERNMENT?

The cxColumbus Diuspatch gave front page Metro ^&* Statye coverage to an Alan Johnson article blasting John Kasich
Headline on the Metro & State section of the Columbus Dispatch today blasted Governor John Kasich for rejecting the 400 million dollar federal government boondoggle for Ohio. The Wisconsin governor turned back 800 nmillion. I don't understand why that money can't just NOT be spent. Instead the Federal boondogglers and earmarkers give the money to other states. That is worth complaing about.
Johnson whined that many projects along the 3C corridor would not be copmpleted now. Columbus Car Co.'s CEO, complained that "Its unbelievable that these states would send back..." what he referred to as 'free money'. I pay taxes and part of that money is mine and yours. Free indeed!
Governor Kasich did the right thing. The proposed train would be slow, few people would ride, and we would still pay $17 million a year.
Whine on Libs! Please Get with the job of spending our tax money better Governor!

Wal-Mart vs. the Morons! He won't let me credit him
Wal-Mart vs. The Morons
1. Americans spend $36,000,000 at Wal-Mart Every hour of every day.
2. This works out to $20,928 profit every minute!
3. Wal-Mart will sell more from January 1 to St. Patrick's Day (March 17th) than Target sells all year.
4. Wal-Mart is bigger than Home Depot + Kroger + Target +Sears + Costco + K-Mart combined.
5. Wal-Mart employs 1.6 million people, is the world's largest private employer, and most speak English.
6 Wal-Mart is the largest company in the history of the world.
7. Wal-Mart now sells more food than Kroger and Safeway combined, and keep in mind they did this in only fifteen years.
8. During this same period, 31 big supermarket chains sought bankruptcy.
9. Wal-Mart now sells more food than any other store in the world.
10. Wal-Mart has approx 3,900 stores in the USA of which 1,906 are Super Centers; this is 1,000 more than it had five years ago.
11. This year 7.2 billion different purchasing experiences will occur at Wal-Mart stores. (Earth's population is approximately 6.5 Billion.)
12. 90% of all Americans live within fifteen miles of a Wal-Mart.
You may think that I am complaining, but I am really laying the ground work for suggesting that MAYBE we should hire the guys who run Wal-Mart to fix the economy.
This should be read and understood by all Americans Democrats, Republicans, EVERYONE!!
To President Obama and ALL 535 voting members of the Legislature,
It is now official you are all corrupt morons:
A.. The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775. You have had 234 years to get it right and it is broke.
b.. Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 74 years to get it right and it is broke.
c.. Fannie Mae was established in 1938. You have had 71 years to get it right and it is broke.
d.. War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor" and they only want more.
e.. Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 44 years to get it right and they are broke.
f.. Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 39 years to get it right and it is broke.
g.. The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 32 years to get it right and it is an abysmal failure.
You have FAILED in every "government service" you have shoved down our throats while overspending our tax dollars.
AND YOU WANT AMERICANS TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED WITH A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM ??
MAYBE WE OUGHT TO KICK YOUR EGG-HEAD BUDDY BUMS OUT OF OFFICE AND HIRE WAL MART TO RUN THE GOVERNMENT ???
WAL MART SEEMS TO KNOW HOW TO RUN A BUSINESS.......WHY DON'T YOU GUYS JUST ADMIT IT'S WAY BEYOND YOUR PAY GRADE, AND QUIT?
Folks, keep this circulating. It is very well stated. Maybe it will end up in the e-mails of some of our "duly elected' (they never read anything) and their staff will clue them in on how Americans feel.
