It was no Hallmark card. People think the alternative to a Postscript is writing a letter themselves. But in truth, the more popular alternative is to just say nothing.

]]> A funny thing happened on the way to Channel Country… https://www.loufitzbaker.com/a-funny-thing-happened-on-the-way-to-channel-country/ Fri, 28 Oct 2022 03:39:38 +0000 https://www.loufitzbaker.com/?p=2419 What does one comedian, two speakers, three Mexican singers and a politician all have in common?
