(54,349 posts)Even right wing pundits like Robert Novak freely admitted that when he got to Washington (1957), he asked whom to ask about learning the ropes in "this town (i.e. Washington)." He was pointed in the direction of my dad's small office in the National Press Building at 14th and F. They remained friends until my dad died, even though Novak's political leanings were abhorrent to my father.
I finally decided that my batteries were at a dangerously low level, and cancelled my appointments in Sprout City today to stay home and vegetate for a day. So, I am playing bloggery for intermediates today. I'm glad my little trips down Memory Lane connected with a few people, such as you and Art. Some people seem to think American History began with a Big Bang in 1980, 1992 or even 2008.
