Volume 43- No. 22

by lyle e davis I remember when I was in the Army, stationed at Brooke Army Hospital, in San Antonio, Texas, we had a barracks-mate from Tennessee. His name was Doyle. Time dims the memory as to his last name, but I distinctly remember as though it were yesterday, when Doyle came back from vacation in Tennesse and brought with him a Mason jar of ‘White Lightnin’ - the eternal name for Moonshine.

I’ve never been much of a drinker. An occasional cold beer, a glass of wine, maybe a Scotch and soda. But, small drinker that I was, I recognized perfection when I tasted it.

This was the smoothest tastin’ stuff I ever did partake of, at least in the alcohol department.

That’s as close as I ever got to the moonshine culture.

If you really, really, wanted to understand moonshine and its culture, you’d have to consult ‘the old perfesser,’ by his own definition, the finest maker of moonshine there ever was.

His name was Marvin Sutton but everyone called him “Popcorn.”

He was an American Appalachian moonshiner originally from Maggie Valley, North Carolina.

To say that Popcorn Sutton was colorful would be to shortchange him.

And Popcorn didn’t like to be short-changed.

Sutton's career in bootlegging—and getting caught for it—extended back to the 1970s. Sutton considered moonshine production a legitimate part of his heritage, being as he was ScotsIrish and descended from a The Paper - 760.747.7119

long line of moonshiners.

A scrawny, long-bearded mountain man with a foul mouth and a passing acquaintance with copper tubing and kettles, Marvin "Popcorn" Sutton seemed the embodiment of moonshiners of yore.

Brought up in rural Cocke County, Tenn., identified as

one of four "moonshine capitals of the world" in the cornwhiskey history "Mountain Spirits," Mr. Sutton learned the family trade from his father. The practice goes back to the Scots-Irish, who brought it to the New World, and it wasn't illegal until after the Civil War, says Dan Pierce, chairman of the history department at the

University of North Carolina at Asheville.

"This is something that legitimately is an expression of the culture of this region," Mr. Pierce says.

“He was a short, skinny fella, who always wore his hat—that was kind of his claim to fame, his hat that he always wore.

“Popcorn Sutton” Continued on Page 2

Page 2 - May 31, 2012 ‘Popcorn Sutton’ Cont. from Page 1 And his bib overalls—he always wore bib overalls. Even when he came to federal court, he was wearing bib overalls. He was a friendly fellow, and of course every time you would talk to him, he would say, 'Ray, I’ve run my last run of moonshine, I'm not gonna do it anymore, I'm just getting too old to be doing this stuff.' ” —Ray Snader on "Popcorn" Sutton, 2008.

Like his forebears, Mr. Sutton had brushes with the law, and was first convicted of selling untaxed liquor in the early 1970s. He mostly kept out of trouble after that, though friends say his nickname came from an unfortunate encounter with a balky barroom popcorn machine that he wound up hitting with a pool cue. But he was well known as a distiller around his native Parrottsville.

Much to the dismay of law enforcement, he lived his life on his own terms, did and said whatever the hell he wanted and always had a trick up his sleeve.

Give Us This Day Our Daily Chuckle

This week, a compendium of wit, wisdom and neat stuff you can tell at parties.

Enjoy!

The Perfect Question The commanding officer at the Russian military academy (the equivalent of a 4-star general in the U.S. ) gave a lecture on Potential Problems and Military Strategy. At the end of the lecture, he asked if there were any questions.

An officer stood up and asked, "Will there be a third world war?

And, will Russia take part in it?"

The general answered both questions in the affirmative.

Another officer asked, "Who will be the enemy?"

The general replied, "All indica-

He was a familiar figure at the Misty Mountain Ranch Bed & Breakfast in nearby Maggie Valley, N.C., wearing faded overalls and with a back stooped, he said, from decades of humping bags of sugar into the hills. He picked the banjo and serenaded guests on the inn's porch. He helped decorate the $155-a-night Moonshiner suite at the inn with some still hardware.

Mr. Sutton put a modern spin on his vocation, appearing in documentaries and even penning an autobiography in 1999, "Me and My Likker."

(You can buy it today at amazon.com. Price? $155.00).

Souvenir shops in Maggie Valley sold his video, "The Last Run of Likker I'll Ever Make," and even clocks with his image on them.

Other moonshiners have gone legit and cashed in; a former Nascar driver and moonshiner now offers Junior Johnson's Midnight Moon in Southern liquor stores. But Mr. Sutton insisted on earning a living the old-fashioned way and, in 2007, agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and tions point to China ."

Everyone in the audience was shocked.

Explosives busted him with 850 gallons of moonshine, stored in an old school bus on his property.

Although Tennessee was once a hotbed of moonshine and federal "revenuers" pursued bootleggers through the hills, an attorney for the Eastern District of Tennessee in Greeneville says he couldn't remember the last federal prosecution of a moonshiner.

"Modern-day moonshining is the manufacture of methamphetamine," First Assistant U.S. Attorney Gregg L. Sullivan says. "Tennessee is in the top five states nationally."

But in Cocke County, Sutton’s endeavors were coming to a halt. After his 2007 bust with the 850 gallons of moonshine, 2008 brought a conviction. (He pleaded guilty to production of distilled spirits and to a weapons possession charge.)

In January 2009, after the ATF raid, Sutton was sentenced to eighteen months in a federal prison for illegally distilling spirits and possession of a firearm as a felon.

Sutton, 62 and recently diagtree smoking a joint when a little lizard walked past, looked up and said, 'Hey Koala! What are you doing?'

nosed with cancer, pleaded with the U.S. District Judge Ronnie Greer to let him serve his sentence under house arrest. Several petitions were made in attempts to reduce or commute Sutton's sentence, to no avail. In sentencing, the judge specifically referred to the documentary about him.

Contrary to popular notion, most moonshine is not made with alcohol levels any higher than can be found in Kentucky bourbons or Tennessee whiskeys.

Popcorn’s brew comes in somewhere between Jack Daniel’s and Four Roses Single Barrel bourbon.

In Sutton’s final year, he determined to pass along his moonshine methodology to Northern Californian Jamey Grosser, a former professional Supercross motorcycle racer and current J and M partner who saw in Sutton a figurehead and a storyline.

Here was a modern-day Jack Daniel, only there are no YouTube clips of Mr. Daniel being interviewed by Johnny ‘Popcorn Sutton’ Cont. on Page 3 the side. Then he asked the little lizard, 'What's the matter with you?'

A third officer remarked, "General, we are a nation of only 350 million, compared to the 1.5 billion Chinese. Can we win at all, or even survive?"

The general answered, "Just think about this for a moment: In modern warfare, it is not the quantity of soldiers that matters, but the quality of an army's capabilities. For example, in the Middle East we have had a few wars recently where 5 million Jews fought against 150 million Arabs, and Israel was always victorious."

After a small pause, yet another officer - from the back of the auditorium asked, "Do we have enough Jews?"

The koala said, 'Smoking a joint, come up and have some.'

So the little lizard climbed up and sat next to the koala where they enjoyed a few hits. After a while the little lizard said that his mouth was 'dry' and that he was going to get a drink from the river.

The crocodile said that he had to check this out and walked into the rain forest, found the tree where the koala was sitting finishing a joint. The crocodile looked up and said, 'Hey you!'

So the koala looked down at him and said, 'Maaaaaan dude...

How much water did you drink?'

New Rules The Secret Service issued new rules of conduct for agents Friday.

They can no longer get drunk, procure hookers or go to strip bars. The rules say that from now on, if agents feel compelled to engage in such behavior, they can run for public office like everyone else.

••••• A koala was sitting in a gum

The little lizard explained to the crocodile that he had been sitting with the koala in the tree, smoking a joint, but got too stoned and fell into the river while taking a drink.

Knoxville.

On March 16, 2009, a week before the 62-year-old was to begin an 18-month prison sentence, he summoned Grosser to his property to review the whiskey-making process. On March 16, Sutton told Grosser he wanted to spend a little time alone with his wife, and Grosser caught a plane back to California.

Grosser wanted into the spirits business, and he figured that selling moonshine legitimately (meaning paying taxes and obtaining permits) would offer an advantage over starting into bourbon or other aged whiskeys. Moonshine can go directly from still to jar to stores, without spending years aging in barrels.

“I thought, ‘We’re going to sell moonshine,” ’ Grosser said.

“Now ‘Just how were we going to do that?’ I had no idea. So I flew to Knoxville and started asking around. Everybody said, ‘Go see Popcorn. He’s the only one left.’ ” Grosser visited Sutton at his Cocke County cabin, where he spent five days talking about whiskey and taking in Sutton’s peculiar, profane and rebellious worldview. Upon arriving at Sutton’s house, Grosser saw a headstone on the porch inscribed, “Popcorn says (expletive) you.”

Over many other visits, the two eventually developed an odd-duck master/apprentice relationship, and they developed plans to “go legit” and market Sutton’s white whiskey.

“He kept teaching me what he’d learned,” Grosser said. “He told me, ‘Nobody else knows what you know.’ And he was methodical about passing it along.”

When he asked Sutton about possible celebrity tie-ins, Sutton said the only public figure he’d want selling his ’shine was Hank Williams Jr. But Williams is loathe to pitch anything that’s not the NFL or T-shirts and undergarments.

“My initial reaction was, ‘I have zero interest. None,’ ” Williams said. “But then they showed me Popcorn’s whole story. And I related to him.

And I admired him. Here was the last real moonshiner, and moonshine has been so connected to music and to the South. It used to be everywhere. The road next to my farm in West Tennessee is named after a guy’s still: Swor Still Road.

“An hour later, he was dead,” Grosser said.

Legendary moonshiner Marvin “Popcorn” Sutton had rigged the exhaust pipe, climbed into the driver seat of his green Ford Fairlane and hit the ignition.

On that March day, he was staring down the barrel of an 18-month prison sentence and was due to report to jail later that week, the price of getting caught with 850 gallons of moonshine. He never reported. Ms. Sutton discovered her husband in his green Ford Fairlane. "He called it his three-jug car," she told the AP, "because he gave three jugs of liquor for it."

In a strange irony, just months after Sutton died, Tennessee eased its laws on moonshine production. The legislature passed a bill that greatly expanded the areas of the state where distilling is allowed. The new law allowed many moonshiners to go legit with their products and other distillers to start.

Since then, there has been a building wave of new distilleries of various types entering the local marketplace, reviving a rich state heritage nearly destroyed by Prohibition.

On Nov. 9, 2010, Hank Williams, Jr. announced his partnership with J&M Concepts LLC and widow Pam Sutton to distill and distribute Sutton's whiskey legally for the first time.

Dubbed "Popcorn Sutton's Tennessee White Whiskey," it is produced on stills designed

by Sutton using his secret family recipe and techniques Sutton entrusted to former Supercross professional Jamey Grosser of J&M Concepts. According to press reports, Popcorn Sutton's Tennessee White Whiskey will be initially distributed in

Tennessee and throughout the southeast. The copper stills were handcrafted by Vendome Copper and Brass in Louisville, KY. Hank Williams Jr. usually lays off the moonshine.

“I’m kind of at the red wine and cigar stage of life,” said Williams, 61, who three decades ago sang, “The hangovers hurt more than they used to/ And cornbread and iced tea took the place of pills and 90 proof.”

Yet Williams has joined with J and M Concepts in launching Popcorn Sutton’s Tennessee White Whiskey, an “un-aged whiskey” (i.e., moonshine) that replicates the liquor made by East Tennessee moonshiner Marvin “Popcorn” Sutton, a banjoplaying, tax-avoiding distiller whose life and 2009 death were chronicled on television, in documentaries and in national newspapers.

He was featured in a 2007 documentary Hillbilly: The Real Story, on The History Channel. In 2008, he was featured in the documentary The Last One, filmed by Neal Hutcheson.

“This guy was real Appalachian Americana,” Williams said.

“He was a folk hero.”

Williams attended Sutton’s funeral, saw the outpouring of community support for the Cocke County local legend and shook his head at the circumstances behind Sutton’s death.

“The government couldn’t leave him alone, so he killed himself,” Williams said. “It was all about something like $5,000 in taxes, which is about five minutes of my panty and T-shirt sales.”

In the wake of all that, Grosser was left to wonder whether and how to move forward. J and M received offers in what Grosser calls “multiple tens of millions” for the rights to Sutton’s likeness and liquor, but Grosser refused, saying, “They wanted to bastardize Popcorn’s whiskey.” After much consultation with Williams and others, he decided on a regional approach and on a strict adherence to Sutton’s recipe

and methodology.

“I asked a lot of advice,” Grosser said. “I went to Jimmy Russell, the master distiller at Wild Turkey, and started telling him about Popcorn. He said, ‘You don’t have to say another thing. Popcorn made some of the best whiskey that’s ever been.’ ” Grosser is quick to remind people that Williams is an owner, not merely a paid celebrity, and also that Sutton’s widow is a partner.

He found a spot in Nashville for what he claims is “the biggest legal moonshine still in the world,” with Sutton’s expletive-laden headstone admonition inscribed on it.

Popcorn Sutton’s Tennessee White Whiskey arrived in select Nashville bars recently, and celebrities including Williams, Kid Rock, Martina McBride, Jamey Johnson, major league ballplayer Nick Swisher and actress Joanna Garcia attended a launch party at Nashville’s Marathon Building. Lipman Brothers will distribute the liquor, which will be packaged in Mason jars.

“Over the last year or so, we’ve seen a rise in white whiskies,” said Woodland Wine Merchant owner Will Motley. “It’s a combination of the emerging craft distillery thing and people’s renewed interest in cocktails. Tennessee has a history of whiskey-making and bootlegging, and here you have a connection with this iconic figure.”

“You’ve still got to be careful, though,” Williams said. “It tastes exactly the same as what Popcorn made, and it’s so smooth you sometimes don’t realize what you’re drinking.

Like I’ve heard Jamey (Johnson) say, there’s at least one famous Tennessee whiskey, (Jack Daniels) and now there are going to be two. This one will be in a Mason jar.”

The people of Tennessee, and in particular, in Popcorn’s neighborhood, have their own thoughts about moonshine: "You talk to some of the old people, and they say, 'You can say it was illegal and we don't like to break the law, but when it comes down to break‘Popcorn Sutton’ Cont. on Page 5

Moonshine may be entering its twilight—the Tennessee legislature recently passed a law legalizing moonshine distilleries, which means that pretty soon it'll be just another piece of roadside kitsch In his later years, Popcorn would tell everyone, “this is my last run, I’m geting to old for this business . . .” but his cellphone number was very available—he'd give it to people to call to order some moonshine. And one of the stories that came out in his federal court case was that he had met up with a fellow and sold him 50 gallons of moonshine, because there was a discounted rate … he had ended up selling 50 gallons to this undercover agent, helped him load it and everything.

"I guess, probably about two years or so ago, he married a woman, and he was married at the time that he committed suicide. He was actually buried in

a very isolated plot in western North Carolina, near the graves of his mother and father.

Several months later, his wife had his body exhumed and there was a large public memorial service to him. And after that memorial service, his body was taken on a horse-drawn caisson to his property in Parrotsville, Tennessee, where it was reburied. Before his death, he already had his coffin—the shovels were there.

And he also had his grave marker, a small grave marker that was already made, to put on his grave. And I didn’t see it personally, but I’ve seen photos of it. And it said simply, "Popcorn says '[Expletive] You.'" Popcorn believed in his Whiskey and the traditions he lived and ultimately died for.

Even in the midst of his impending prison sentence he managed to ensure his life’s work would continue by passing this tradition onto his apprentice who he called the “grocery boy.”

‘Social Butterfly’ Cont. on Page 13 should never have pushed that old lady out of the plane.

Unheard of!

••••• Dismayed at the very weak television news anchor teams in San Diego, particularly on the weekends.

The overall quality of local television journalists is rather low. I cringed when not one but several tv field reporters would begin almost every sentence with “Now . .”

“Now, police are investigating.

Now, police say the subject was a resident of Illinois. Now, the house is under surveillance.”

Amazing that news directors allow this type of amateur presentation. Also, the tv news reporter who reported someone “drowned to death.”

Um, yeah.

••••• Does anyone actually go the San Diego Padres games anymore? And, if so . . . why?

They appear to be such a completely inept team . . . with a record (as of Monday) of 17 wins and 32 losses. San Diego has a reputation for lousy sports franchises. Even the Chargers disappoint.

Christopher Bradley Nutt, recently of San Dimas, met the girl through an online social network, according to a news release from the Escondido Police Department.

The girl's mother told police early Sunday that the child had been missing since Saturday evening.

Officers began "a systematic search," contacting the girl's friends and checking her cellphone, police said. The investigation led them to the 1000 block of Nightingale Place in Escondido, where they found Nutt with the girl in the bedroom of a house, police said.

The man was arrested and the girl reunited with her parents.

Nutt was charged with five incidents of intercourse with a minor; one incident of sodomy with a child younger ‘Local News’ Cont. on Page 8

Shelly is a Longhaired very small Chihuahua. She is only 1 year old and 4 pounds now. She loves to play and snuggle. She gets along great with other dogs, cats and people.

Above, Military Working Dog Chyba C260 sitting on the memorial. Chyba lost the only battle of her life when she died of cancer last year. The granite statue on the memorial is a replica of Chyba.

There's an old saying that great soldiers "die with their boots on." In reality, many of them wear no boots ... and instead of two feet they have four paws. This past Memorial Day, Rancho Coastal Humane Society (RCHS) held a service in honor of the Military Working Dogs and their handlers who stood in harm's way, sometimes sacrificing their own lives, to protect others.

"The average Military Working Dog (MWD) saves 150 lives during its time in service," says RCHS spokesman John Van Zante.

"Since the creation of the Army's K-9 Corps in 1942 MWDs have detected explosives that would have killed soldiers and civilians and alerted our troops to enemies that could not be seen, only smelled."

The Military Working Dog Memorial is located in Cricket's Corner Dog Park at RCHS. This is the only private MWD memorial west of the Mississippi River.

If you've never visited the MWD Memorial at Rancho Coastal Humane Society, make this your first time. It’s still there . . . and will be, forever.

Cricket's Corner Dog Park is at 389 Requeza Street in Encinitas.

Great News! Bran has a Home!

Remember Bran? The German Shepherd we featured last week?

The dog that watched other dogs being adopted and he kept being returned to his pen . . . apparently consigned to always being the forgotten one?

Kennedy is Pet of the Week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society in Encinitas. She's a 1 year old, 13 pound, bundle of love!

Christina, who works in the kennels, calls Kennedy a "Typical Terrier." She has lots of energy.

She's friendly and social. And she absolutely loves other dogs.

Kennedy was transferred to RCHS through our FOCAS program.

She gets along great with other dogs....no matter how big or small they are.

The adoption fee for Kennedy is $125. That includes up to date vaccines, veterinary exam, spay, and microchip.

Rancho Coastal Humane Society is at 389 Requeza Street in Encinitas. Adoption hours: 11 to 5 Wednesday through Monday. For more information call 760-7536413 or log on to www.sdpets.org.

Nutt remained at the Vista jail on Monday evening in lieu of $1,175,000 bail, jail records showed.

Well, Monday morning we got a call from a lady who wanted to adopt him. The good news is, Bran was no longer available.

Another family had adopted him last week. But, it just happened that good friend, Bruce Krider, has two other German Shepherds that need a home . . . and we reckon this new lady will fall in love with at least one of them .We were delighted to learn that good ol’ Bran found himself a home.

We’ll keep you posted.

11th Annual Fil-Am Event

Due to our financial reforms, and better than expected revenues, our financial picture continues to improve.

I recommended service restorations such as: adding three more operating hours each week at our libraries, and re-opening the central library on Saturdays; increasing the number of cadets in our police and fire academy classes; putting $8.3 million into infrastructure projects; and increasing the city’s allocation to arts pro-

grams.

The budget I unveiled last month for Fiscal Year 2013 was the first structurally balanced budget the City of San Diego has seen in decades. The city is projecting a $120 million surplus over the next five years.

Reforms such as managed competition, the streamlining of city departments, outsourcing our information technology, and making major changes to the city’s retirement and retiree health systems have all contributed to our financial recovery.

The restoration of city services is a testament to the hard work and sacrifice of city employees, and our residents.

Then you took off on how Fry’s house brand, Great Quality was a big joke and Fry’s had to stop makin computers. Next you put the whammy on Comp USA, Good Guys and PC Club. Now every one of em is gone.”

I was stunned, “why what did I do?” I asked.

“Them articles you write is doin more to screw up the economy than Bush and Obama put together and you need to stop it.”

“Yes I did,” I replied, “and you know as well as I do that it’s the truth.”

Jack snorted, “What I know is that Dell announced on Wednesday its first quarter earnings is down 33% and HP/Compaq announced they’s layin off 27,000 employees.

‘Popcorn Sutton’ Cont. from Page 5

Celebrating the legacy of a whiskey-making legend, you can now enjoy Popcorn Sutton’s Tennessee White Whiskey exactly the way Popcorn made it.

Only thing is . . . you have to go to Tennessee to get it.

That’s the only state in which it is sold.

A modern day legal still

Tennesseans have always enjoyed their whiskey.

According to Tennessee Distilleries: Their Rise, Fall, and Re-emergence by Kay Baker Gaston, at the very end of the 18th century there were some 61 stills in Davidson County, which is pretty amazing when you consider there were only about 4,000 people living here then.

Distilling continued to grow throughout the 19th century, and by 1874, distillers in Robertson County alone were producing some 45,000 barrels of whiskey annually.

So large was the corn consumption that despite Tennessee’s rich soil and prime corn growing conditions, demand couldn’t be met, and huge amounts of corn were imported from out of state to keep up with production.

Eventually, however, various temperance movements and Prohibition largely wiped out the industry by the first part of the 20th century. Before the crackdown, Tennessee boasted dozens of distilleries, the largest being Cascade (later known as George Dickel), along with Jack Daniel, Greenbrier and J. S. Brown Distilleries on Wartrace Creek. Distilling for a time was the largest manufacturing industry in the state.

Only two of the above would survive Prohibition, and today Tennessee is known for both George Dickel and what is arguably the state’s most identifiable export worldwide, Jack Daniel’s.

From the repeal of Prohibition in 1933 until the most recent law change, it was exceptionally difficult to get legal approval to distill spirits in the state of Tennessee. Only a few counties allowed the practice, and for a distillery to be approved it had to get a referendum on the ballot and then win a countywide vote. This made it nearly impossible for new producers to start up.

In 2009 all that changed. A bill was drafted that would permit distilleries in any county in Tennessee where there are both operating liquor stores and liquor by the drink, which opens up much of the state.

One wonders, however, if Popcorn Sutton would have gone legit. One suspects he was having too much fun being a traditional moonshiner.

‘Commentaries’ Cont. from Page 5 Republicans, in my view, have embraced the type of negotiation tactics that has placed President Barack Obama in a similar position to the one that led President John Kennedy to conclude after his 1961 summit in Vienna with Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev: "We cannot negotiate with those who say, 'What's mine is mine and what's yours is negotiable.' " Republicans have become an anti-intellectual, anti-tax and anti-science protest party that eschews compromise.

Pick an issue -- where have the Republicans demonstrated leadership beyond their "our way or no way" philosophy? Was it climate change, the economy, the deficit, the debt ceiling or the health care legislation?

The strident tone that the party has embraced would leave little room for bygone Republican stalwarts such as Jacob Javits, John Danforth or Everett Dirksen, let alone Barry Goldwater or Ronald Reagan.

The individual mandate of the health care legislation that the Supreme Court is currently evaluating is not some Orwellian first step to deconstruct the welfare of a free society but an idea put forth by the conservative Heritage Foundation.

Republicans in Congress have taken a conservative idea that the presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney also used to pass health care legislation in Massachusetts, transforming it into Marxist ideology to prove the president is attempting to change the nation for the worse.

In our system of government, it is always problematic when one political party passes major legislation alone. But what should the president do when the Republicans have no desire to support anything he proposes, even if it is their idea?

Politically speaking, I understand that when Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell suggested if Republicans work with the president, he will get the credit.

What I don't understand is when such considerations trump working in the interest of the American people.

This is not to suggest Democrats are the party of virtue, but it is difficult for our form of democracy to function when one party prefers the comfort of the extreme.

Hiding behind a campaign promise may provide one with the appearance of sticking to one's principles, but it is a cowardly way to govern.

The strict adherence to a campaign promise when governing can be as useful as paying for auto repairs before the mechanic has determined the problem.

Our system of government needs two political parties actively engaging in the marketplace of ideas. That also includes casting difficult votes and sometimes compromising on behalf of the American people. Anyone can hold a placard that reads "No!" That's called being an activist.

But should the American taxpayer compensate such acts at $174,000 annually?

Between liberal and conservative orthodoxy lies the answers to America's myriad problems. But answers are impossible to find if one party is content to stay under a rock appearing periodically to offer focus-tested pabulum to justify doing nothing.

Sunshine Sue by lyle e davis

Long time ago, when first starting out in radio, I had the “all night show," at KBON, Omaha, Nebraska.

The all night show is where many young radio broadcasters began their career. It can get boring. Record after record, hardly any commercials, lots of PSA's (Public Service Announcements) which don't generate any revenue for the station as they are programmed free of charge.

I remember the first night I went on the air and followed the station format of which records to play, in what order. It's called the "rotation," a station format you follow, playing the top records in a certain sequence, news at the top of the hour and the bottom of the hour and station breaks, as I recall every 15 minutes. In between you played the records.

I can remember coming home from work that morning and going to bed. Visions of a

platter going round and round and round stuck in my head and I kept hearing Fats Domino's "I Wanna Walk You Home . . " over and over and over. Finally, I fell asleep.

I guess I did this job about a year or two. One thing that sometimes kept the job from being too boring was the telephone. Lonely listeners would call up at all hours of the night, requesting a record be played . . . sometimes just to chat a bit.

REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS AGREE,

Dave Roberts is the bipartisan leader our County needs.

I had one gal that constantly called. "Hi . . . .I'd love to hear Johnny Mathis. It would, you know . . . put me in the mood."

Her name was Sunshine Sue and she had a voice that would melt a frozen stick of butter. I can't mimic in writing the warm syrupy voice she had but it went something like . . ."Hyeeeee . . . (mmmmm) . . this is . .

Sunshine Sue . . . (deep, sexy breath) (sexy whispery voice . . .)

"I'd just (mmmm) love to hear some . .. Johnny Mathis (deep, sexy breath) "It'd, you know ‘Sunshine Sue’ Cont. on Page 17

The Paper Endorsements Probably the election that draws the most interest in North County is that of the County Board of Supervisors, District 3.

Only three candidates appear to have a realistic shot at the seat.

Steve Danon, Carl Hilliard and Dave Roberts.

This is a tough decision but a no-lose decision because any one of the three would likely make a find Supervisor.

In fact, the race appears to be so close that we rather imagine it will wind up with a runoff election between the top two vote-getters.

Dave Roberts is Deputy Mayor of Solana Beach, is known as a ‘can-do’ guy. Has a good record as a successful businessman and impressive credentials of working with various governmental agencies. He’s young and vigorous, amiable, very approachable.

Carl Hilliard is a two-term Mayor of Del Mar, is a very successful businessman, a distinguished attorney with a brilliant record of winning the cases he’s taken to trial, well spoken, was a professor of Law at California Western School of Law - and is a fascinating conversationalist.

Steve Danon has been Chief of Staff for Congressman Brian Bilbray, knows his way around the halls of power in Washington, D. C., and has good local connections as well. He has experience as a businessman, is very articulate and has an impressive list of endorsements.

Brian Ziegler, a deputy district attorney, is a newcomer to the political world and needs some seasoning. He is, in our judgment, not ready for a Supervisor’s seat.

Stephen Pate has every legal right to file for the office but we wonder why he did. He simply doesn’t have the wheels to do the job.

So, our decision comes down to one of the three primary candidates. We’ve listened to all the candidates at several debates (more accurately

described as panels where no candidate really got enough time to tell their story properly.

We like all three candidates.

We like them a lot. But, after having met and talked with each of them, having followed their campaigns, ad after much study, we will endorse Steve Danon for District 3 Supervisor.

We would not be at all unhappy, however, if either Carl Hilliard or Dave Roberts grabs the golden ring. As we said earlier, any one of them would represent us well.

County Board Supervisors, District 3 Steve Danon

If it ain’t broke . . . don’t fix it. Proposition 28, if enacted, would give legislators a 12 year term limit, regardless of whether in the Assembly or Senate, or split between the two. If denied by the voters, the status quo remains.

Legislators can have 14 years in office, six years maximum in the Assembly, eight years maximum in the Senate.

Prop 28 Vote No Proposition 29 is, to us, a nobrainer. Anyone who has had cancer or knows a friend or family member who has had cancer, knows the insidious nature of this disease.

Anything we can do to find a cure . . . we should do it.

Taxing each pack of cigarettes $1 will generate $735 million in new excise taxes . . which will be used to fight cancer.

To not vote yes on this proposition would be to thank Big Tobacco for all the cancer they’ve helped create.

Prop 29 Vote Yes Proposition A, in San Diego metro, would eliminate what amounts to the “prevailing wage” that is often required to be paid to construction workers and thus increases construction costs substantially.

Opening up the labor market to bid will not only save substantial costs on construction, but will also lessen the construction unions stranglehold

on city coffers.

Proposition A - San Diego eliminate "prevailing wage" requirement Yes

District 77 Brian Maienschein District 78 No recommendation District 79 No recommendation

Proposition B will give San Diego voters the opportunity of putting a stop to the outrageous pensions being paid and finally deliver the first step in pension reform.

District 80 No recommendation

Proposition B - San Diego Pension Reform Yes

Superior Court Office #25 Robert O. Amador

Judge,

Once a mobile home has been sold or otherwise conveyed, the owner of the property would be free to increase rents. This protects the existing mobile home owner and entitles the property owner to seek market rents.

Superior Court Office #34 Garland Peed

Judge,

Proposition E - Oceanside Rent Control Yes Propositon F would provide that Oceanside hold run-off elections if no candidate gets more than 50% of the vote.

Proposition F Yes President Ron Paul (Maybe Mitt Romney - we’ll decide that later. For the moment, Ron Paul is our choice for endorsement).

US Senator Williams

Mayor, City of San Diego Nathan Fletcher or Carl DeMaio Our preference is Nathan Fletcher.

We like an Independent in office; but odds are that DeMaio will win.

So that’s it. Our recommendations for this election, June 5, 2012.

Agree or disagree . . . your call. Do your homework.

Study the candidates, study the issues . . . then get out and vote!

Op-Ed Throughout history there have been people who liked to roam and explore . . . while others chose to stay at home and tend the store. A simple statement, but with strong meaning when referring to the colonization of the world and neither one is good without the other.

The magnitude of this movement is so prevalent in the settlement of the American West.

For example, Escondido, California, established in 1885, grew rapidly to around 5,000 population in the first fifty years, illustraing what was happening in all of America. Yet, the rest of the country was growing too, with the stay at homes.

What is it that motivates people to roam or stay at home?

There are undoubtadly many reasons, some we would never think of, but there are some reasons that stand out: • In order to hitch up a team of horses to a covered wagon, throw in all of your belongings and pull up stakes, takes a gambler who will play the odds that they can do better.

The stay at home is satisfied enough and will not take a chance.

• Job satisfaction may be lacking. Doesn’t like the work, or working conditions, can’t get on with the boss, or other workers, etc. The trouble with that is there is no way of knowing if a move would make any difference, so why not go looking elsewhere and maybe things will be better.

• The family is an important reason to stay put. A member of a close knit family will ever think of leaving it. The ones who do not have this deep loyalty to the family often end up with an undesirable situation where the family is spread all over the country and get-togethers are infrequent. Of course there has to be the greed for wealth.

Witness the gold rushers, or a friend may tell about a place where there are plenty of jobs and the pay is excellent.

Many people who fall for this kind of hype end up in a deep hole.

The wonder is that some peo-

ple are on the move all of the time and others never move.

It is not rare to have someone say they still live in the house in which they were born, or in the near vicitinity.

Sometime you may ask a person if they have lived here all of their life and they might say, “not yet.”

This commentary deals with just America. Other parts of the world have different reasons, like religious intolerance, tyranny, or like Christopher Columbus, seek an all-water route to the Orient, and accidentally gain fame by discovering the South America. /s/Dale Wolf Omaha, Nebraska Editor’s Note: Mr. Wolf is 96 years old and is a frequent contributor to The Paper.

A Modest Proposal Congressional Reform Act of 2012 1. No Tenure / No Pension.

A Congressman/woman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they're out of office.

2. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security. All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately.

All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.

3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.

4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise.

Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.

5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.

Social Security is Not an Entitlement

by John Smylie

Letters to the Editor I made payments to FICA (Social Security) for 62 years.

I am currently recycling my social security check because I am still working.

Social Security administration will provide a copy of your contributions. If the money I contributed to social security had been invested at 3% my social security check would be 50% greater than my current payment. Plus the principal would be intact to pass on to the next generation.

Suppose I had invested the same money with an investment counselor, insurance company or banker for 62 years. The investment counselor or bank informs me I will be paid a monthly check until I die. The check will be less than 3% of my investment. The banker or investment counselor then tells me I have no principal left. I am further informed that I have to return the check each month as long as I continue to work.

The banker or investment counselor would go to prison for operating a Ponzi Scheme!

Yet our government not only operates this Ponzi scheme, but calls it an entitlement as if it is a gift from the government.

The current news reports that if I happen to have income from my savings or IRA, I should give it someone who needs it more because they have not saved for retiremeent. To top it off, the government now taxes the payments.

The Birthday Girl Morning Evelyn!

What lovely coverage you gave my mother's 100th birthday! She was so pleased with the words and photos.

You did such a nice job of honoring her and I very much appreciate it. Thank you so much!

Best Regards, Pat Coleman Escondido, CA. FFA and County Fair Time Hello, It's that time again! We at the San Marcos FFA are preparing our animals for the San Diego County Fair.

San Marcos FFA Prepares for San Diego County Fair The San Diego County fair begins on June 8th and runs through July 4, 2012 but the San Marcos FFA has been preparing their projects for several months now. Each FFA member’s animal represents months of time and effort on behalf of the student. Some projects, like the beef, started when they were selected last summer. When they arrived at the San Marcos FFA Ag Farm in the fall, the hundreds of hours that each steer project requires began.

I do not believe my 62 years of investing in social security should be termed an entitlement! It seems to me to be a partial return of my investments.

Other projects such as goats, lambs, and pigs also require many hours of care and attention and will be auctioned off at the San Diego County Fair Junior Livestock Auction held on Saturday, June 30th.

The San Marcos FFA encourages the community to come to the fair to see how well their time and effort has paid off for these projects.

One Arrest, Five Cars Impounded at DUI Checkpoint

check up on a San Diego County-based relative who he could not reach by phone.

Deputies visited the home of the woman, who said she did not know the caller. She said she’s recently been scammed into wiring money to someone pretending to be a relative of hers who was abroad and in trouble.

Sheriff's deputies arrested a DUI suspect, impounded five cars and issued 27 citations at a DUI checkpoint Friday night, authorities said Saturday.

Deputies determined that the call they received was from someone connected to that operation who was attempting to reconnect with the woman for more money.

The checkpoint was set up in the 100 block of West Mission Road from 7 p.m.

Friday to 1 a.m. Saturday.

Many of the citations were issued for driving without a valid license, the statement said.

Another scam involved a suspect who posed as a sheriff’s deputy -- he used a real deputy’s name -- by phone to attempt to take money from an elderly man’s bank account. The man received a call from the ‘deputy,’ who told him he’d won a large amount of money but needed to pay a fee before they money could be wired into his account, which the suspect said the Sheriff’s Department was handling.

Well! I'm a young 22 or 23 year old red blooded male . . . purely for the sake of courtesy and station public relations, you understand . . . I just HAD to meet . . .

Sunshine Sue. One morning she broke the ice by asking if she could come by the station and say hello. Could she? Could she?

Hell yes, she could!

Thinking out my battle plan: 3am. Only a security guard down stairs, five floors down.

I'd call him and alert him that I was expecting a guest, that it was okay to let her in and put her on the elevator.

No one else in the building but me. Lots of long playing records I could line up, giving me plenty of time to visit or, you know. . . with Sunshine Sue. (Harry Belafonte's album was great if you needed time to go down the hall to the bathroom; Marty Robbins original version of "El Paso" was about 4.5 minutes long if you just needed a really quick trip to the john.

I had ALL the long playing records lined up.

It was about 3am and she was due any minute. My mind boggled at what might transpire that morning. I was looking forward to this adventure . . . and then it was shattered.

The cleaning lady showed up.

Of all times to clean the offices! She was gonna kill the moment. No private, intimate moments with Sunshine Sue. I had to do something.

I hurried out to the lobby/reception area and accosted the lady. She was older, I suppose in her 50's, wrinkled gingham type dress, wore glasses with one lens frosted over, hair kinda messy. I'm sure she was a very hard worker and had an important job but I just didn't need her there right now.

"Um, I wonder if you could come back in a couple hours?

I'm expecting a very important guest that I have to interview and it'd just be easier if we

I fumbled around, apologized, and invited her into the control room.

"Gosh, Sue, I'd love to chat but I'm busier than I thought I was gonna be. I just found a note asking me to file all the records from yesterday's broadcasts and I have to have them done before I get off the air at 6am. Do you suppose we could meet some other day . . .um, night?"

It seemed to work well enough. A short time later . .

Sunshine Sue left the building and I breathed a sigh of relief.

She continued to call, almost every night but I somehow always managed to be busy and we never met again.

I also learned to never again associate a voice with a physical appearance.

To calculate the speed of a player's downswing, multiply the speed of his back-swing by his handicap; i.e., back-swing 20 mph, handicap 15, downswing = 300 mph.

There are two things you can learn by stopping your back-swing at the top and checking the position of your hands: how many hands you have, and which one is wearing the glove.

Hazards attract; fairways repel.

If your opponent has trouble remembering whether he shot a six or a seven, he probably shot an eight (or worse).It takes longer to learn to be a good golfer than it does to become a brain surgeon. On the other hand, you don't get to ride around on
