On Friday, The News Journal reports that yet another GOP member has said “no” to the run for the governor’s seat. State Rep. Donna Stone let the GOP know that she won’t do it this time. Vance Phillips still sounds confident that they will find someone to run, dismissing the two candidates that are already wanting their party’s blessing, Mike Protack and Dave Graham.
Michael at Monoblogue has, in satire, suggested that Salisbury News blogger and Delaware resident Joe Albero should run for governor. It would make the race all the more fun!
Howard at Delmar Dustpan has affirmed that I should step up and grab the governor’s chair. He’d like to fill the Lt. Governor seat:
I can’t imagine a more posh job for an old lazy man with no ambition.
Funny.
Remember, a vote for me is not a vote for Mike Protack.

Musician’s Friend is a web retailer of just about anything a musician needs. On a weekly basis they issue a summary of music history for that week, including births and deaths. This week they had a fit of silliness. Betcha didn’t know this:
1970, Elvis frees the slaves of Graceland …
or this:
1976, building on the overwhelming popularity of the 8-track audio cartridge, RCA announces it is working on an 8-track video cartridge … according to one RCA exec, the “8-TV” cartridge will hold up to one 40-minute program with only a brief interruption every ten minutes as the tape heads change tracks …
One of my favorites:
1977, RCA releases the latest Elvis album, The King Requests, a compilation of taped phone calls Elvis made to a Memphis deli over the years to order sandwiches, pizza, and other snacks for delivery to Graceland … the calls were recorded over 12 years on 37 cassettes by the enterprising deli owner who sold them to RCA for $385,000 … and yes, every call ends with Elvis saying “thang-you-very-much” … in 1983 a remastered CD edition is released that contains hilarious outtakes including the time Elvis called and couldn’t remember what he wanted, as well as the time E made three calls in five minutes with the exact same order …
Apparently they even saw into the future:
2022, The Rolling Stones cancel the remaining dates on their African tour due to an undependable supply of Depends …
