-Caveat Lector- >From Arkansas Democrat Gazette http://www.ardemgaz.com/cgi/textonly.pl (Bill-Jeff's ol' stomping grounds): Lead-in excerpts (complete text at site): > Unfinished business in Kosovo > > JOHN R. STARR > > Hey, Bill Clinton! Listen up! Don't get swept up in euphoria > about your domestic agenda and Hillary's race for the Senate. Not > just yet. There's still work to be done in Yugoslavia. Hasn't > anybody told you that ethnic cleansing is still going on in > Kosovo and you may need to play commander-in-chief a while > longer? Surely, you've seen interviews on TV of Kosovar > Serbs, complaining about having their homes raided and burned. > They look just like the ethnic Albanians who were complaining > about the same thing three months ago. Call one of the field > commanders if you haven't heard that as soon as Serb forces left > Kosovo under a one-sided deal that you worked out, ethnic > Albanians began to kill civilian Serbs and burn their houses. > Massive delta spread set for auction block > > EMMETT GEORGE > ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT-GAZETTE > > WILMOT -- When Carl Wells Jr. moved into his dream house in > August 1980, he thought he would spend the rest of his life in > the massive colonial-style dwelling in rural Ashley County. > It took Wells, now 62, about 11/2 years to build the house, about > three miles west of Wilmot near the junction of U.S. 165 and > Arkansas 173. The two-story house features four bedrooms and 41/2 > baths. Eight massive columns adorn the front of the house, which > features a full-length balcony. The amenities are too numerous to > mention. Set in the heart of the southeast Arkansas delta, > the property is located in a hunter's paradise. One of the things > Wells enjoys most about the 25-acre property is the abundant > wildlife, he said. "I can almost sit on my back porch and shoot > ducks," he said. But as attached as Wells is to the property, > now it's got to go, he said. At 2 p.m. Wednesday, the house and > the 25 acres will be sold at an "absolute" auction, one in which > there is no minimum bid and the property will go to the highest > bidder, no matter how low the bid. > Good news for the Easy Generation > > JOHN BRUMMETT > > Tom Brokaw ought to write a book about Baby Boomers. He ought to > call us "The Easy Generation" or "The Spoiled Rotten Generation." > I'm not complaining. I'm just telling. We came along > after our folks had survived the Great Depression and a horrible > world war and have remained unacquainted for five decades, give > or take a year or two, with outhouses, foxholes or any real worry > about the next meal. From 1945, discounting the occasional > and altogether brief recession or stagflation, Baby Boomers have > lived amid spiraling prosperity and ever-enhanced convenience. > We've been blessed with post-secondary educations, insulated > homes and, best of all, easy mutual funds, money markets and > 401(k)s that allow us to get individually richer feeding off our > cumulative prosperity while we sit on our behinds. > Perry County man found dead near road; fiancee, 16, missing > > JAY MEISEL > ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT-GAZETTE > > PERRYVILLE -- Christopher Alan Barnes and Barbara Leggitt > apparently planned to travel to Missouri last week to get > married, but something went tragically wrong. Barnes, 25, of > Harris Brake was found Saturday in a remote area of Perry County > with a gunshot wound in the head, and no one knows the > whereabouts of Leggitt, 16, of Houston. Barnes' body was > found about 25 feet from the rear of his grandparents' car near a > forestry road between the Aplin and Iron Horse watersheds, said > Richard Fisher, an investigator with the Perry County sheriff's > office. People go to the watersheds to fish or swim, he said.
