I had always loved to write and my mom was my editor for my school papers.
When you think of couponing you picture a mom cutting coupons out of the back of the newspaper.
You don't realize how hard it is to live on your own. But there's no mom to do your laundry and make you dinner and to do things for you and you don't think about little things like buying paper towels and salt.
In 1963 and later papers I pointed out that the special market characteristics of medical care and medical insurance could be explained by reference to differences in information among the parties involved.
The current medical records system is this: Room after room after room in a hospital filled with paper files.
I remember driving home one evening while they were reviewing the papers on the radio. One of the articles was about me separating from my wife. It's a weird thing to listen to a news report about the break-up of your marriage.
Never ever discount the idea of marriage. Sure someone might tell you that marriage is just a piece of paper. Well so is money and what's more life-affirming than cold hard cash?
Before marriage a man declares that he would lay down his life to serve you after marriage he won't even lay down his newspaper to talk to you.
For anything worth having one must pay the price and the price is always work patience love self-sacrifice - no paper currency no promises to pay but the gold of real service.
What the world really needs is more love and less paper work.
All the legal action I've taken against newspapers has had a massively positive effect on my life and achieved exactly what I wanted which is privacy and non-harassment.
After the chaos and carnage of September 11th it is not enough to serve our enemies with legal papers.
Learning lines is on my mind until I do know them. I'll read the paper or paint the house to keep from starting to memorize. I've never found an easy way.
I always found the extraordinary loss of life in the First World War very moving. I remember learning about it as a very young child as an eight- or nine-year-old asking my teachers what poppies were for. Every year the teachers would suddenly wear these red paper flowers in their lapels and I would say 'What does that mean?'
No I got a GED in my 30s. My kids know that I never stop learning and they know I love reading. I have books overflowing everywhere. I am current on today's events and I read the paper every day and we talk about it so they see that appetite.
As for leadership I am the kind who leads reluctantly and more by example than anything else. Someone had to be on the incorporation papers as president.
The advertisements in a newspaper are more full knowledge in respect to what is going on in a state or community than the editorial columns are.
