Tom Eblen at the Lexington Herald Leader did a terrific column this week about Al Smith. Al, along with Tim Russert and two others, will receive a huge award from the Society of Professional Journalists at their Atlanta convention this week.
I planned to be there before I banged up my knee. I am better now. I went to Dr. Phil Hoffman yesterday, who is best known as the father of "Babydaddy" in the Scissor Sisters. Dr. Phil had me jump around the office for a few minutes. He could have been auditioning me as a dancer for the group. Never know. I feel pretty good but it is too late to reschedule my trip.
I had dinner with Al & Martha Helen last week. They also invited Elizabeth Page, and her parents. Elizabeth is a fascinating MIT student from Lexington who I plan to feature in a future column. Elizabeth gives me hope for the future of America and the kind of talented student that Kentucky schools can produce.
