While we were all busy monitoring the General Assembly as it slogged through proposed legislation, the Indiana Supreme Court sneaked a pretty big development in on us.

While my fellow Hoosiers suffered through the late-January winter storm with its ice, snow and high winds, I was in paradise. I spent two weeks on Maui, where the most boring job is that of TV weatherman. There is no bad time to be in Maui. If I had been the recent winner of the multi-billion-dollar lottery, I would be living in Maui as we speak. Actually, my wife tells me that “ain’t gonna happen” unless I play the lottery, and it would not be with her. Seems she puts the grandkids first.

To the Editor:

For those among you who haven’t seen the 1969 classic film, “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,” let me spoil the ending for you. Paul Newman and Robert Redford, in the title roles, had been chased into a shack by authorities in Bolivia after a lengthy manhunt. They were surrounded, exhausted and had nowhere else to run. Little did they know, the Bolivian Army had also gathered outside the shack where they were holed up.

I am not the world’s greatest housekeeper, so if you enter my home, you are likely to detect a musty, stale odor or two.
