Me trying to do it for a living and all...well, forget for a living, just to get published.<BR/><BR/>Yeah. Who knew about Goldwater? Everybody has their story, some different side of him. He wielded his camera with an artist's eye for light and a poet's feel for composition.<BR/><BR/>There's a little memorial in his honor down the street from me. Takes up several acres of prime Paradise Valley Real Estate.<BR/><BR/>People feel bad because when his house got sold (A sprawling fifties thing with magnificent views of the city), the guy who bought it, a very secret guy who bought it through several corporations and more lawyers swore to all that is holy that he wouldn't tear it down, would just upgrade it and preserve it's basic style and do so in a tasteful manner. He did that to get the family to sign. The day after he took ownership, the bulldozers rolled in.<BR/><BR/>Stupid really, the family could have donated it, made it an Arizona landmark. It's not like they needed the money. Sometimes I wonder if that's the reason John McCain has his for sale - save everybody the trouble of considering it a shrine.Mindy Tarquinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02970872751327021013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19897529.post-1144859490581045172006-04-12T12:31:00.000-04:002006-04-12T12:31:00.000-04:00Ah, you can't top Mindy for humour.You want to wri...Ah, you can't top Mindy for humour.<BR/><BR/>You want to write inspirations and stories that warm hearts and tickle funnybones?<BR/><BR/>Dear GOD, you want to be a cozy writer.Sandra Ruttanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06109584805469336742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19897529.post-1144857601524922472006-04-12T12:00:00.000-04:002006-04-12T12:00:00.000-04:00Ha!
