KEMP for Governor
There HAS to be a story here........
Hi Perry! You sharp-eyed devil, you... There's a story alright. But not about politics. Mr. Kemp is no relation as far as I can tell. He is either a shrewd political tactician or an evil barstard, depending on your party affiliation.
On one of my road trips to Valdosta with Prescott, I commented on how I should steal one of those "KEMP For Governor" signs beside the road. As things often do with Prescott, the conversation spiraled out of control and got sillier as we went along. South Georgia is somewhat rural, mostly agricultural and was apparently very supportive of Mr. Kemp. There were lots of signs.
On the way back from the machine shop, Prescott suddenly yelled "PULL OVER!" and I did, thinking he was having some kind of distress. As soon as the truck stopped moving, he hopped out (and rather quickly for an old fart, I might add). He trotted across the ditchline and into somebody's field, grabbed a KEMP sign and trotted back. "Here, you got your sign, now quit whining!" "Oh My God, Prescott! It's a wonder you didn't get shot!" "Shut up and drive!" And I did...
Came home with the sign, which turned out to be a piece of soft vinyl, folded over a metal frame. It had "KEMP For Governor" printed twice, so as to be a two-sided sign. We cut it in half and now both garages are decorated with them.
I had lunch with Prescott on Tuesday. His birthday is Dec 17 and he will turn 70. Still a little boy at heart. A larcenous little boy...
So, yeah, there's a story...
Peace, Love and "Vote Early, Vote Often"--
