Sunny and would have been a wonderful fall day had it not been for the winds whipping the leaves down the street. Of course, I am not complaining. After all, it was snowing this morning in New England. The Weather Channel predicts that it will be five percent colder than last year in our area this winter . . . Guy Kehler reports that Lindsay Mills is two weeks into his retirement and is enjoying it a lot . . . Got an interesting and curious e-mail passed along by Yvonne Brown. It suggests that the current epidemic of bedbugs has been spread by imported fabrics--clothing and housewares like towels and sheets. It recommends that any new purchase go immediately into the dryer for twenty minutes which will kill the little devils and their eggs. Don't know how valid this is, but better safe than sorry . . . Bob is patient with my passion for high school and college football and has actually become more interested since his niece's husband, Steve Boyer, is coaching Millersburg High ball. Steve's dad, Ron, is assisting, and son Cole is leading the team. They were given a fine write-up in Friday's Patriot-News. Unfortunately they didn't fare well this weekend . . . It just happens that the coach of the Steelton football team is also Robert Deibler, and Bob often gets telephone calls intended for him. Usually Bob patiently explains that they have the wrong person, but in at least one case (having gotten one too many calls that particularly week) he actually provided some "quotes" for one reporter. We never learned how that interview played out . . .
