Opinions

If you are among the millions of Americans who labored through three-and-a-half years of the Russia Collusion hoax, the Ukrainian phone call sham, and the subsequent Democrat impeachment celebration, you may have wondered when, if ever, the other shoe was going to drop. Are the Deep State operatives who cooked up all of these schemes truly untouchable, or will they eventually get their day in court?

Dee Carter of Midland has had parallel careers. After graduating with BA and MA degrees in religion he was a minister 5 years. He was a basketball referee 28 years (Division One for 12 years). And he sings. “I’ve been singing all my life. My mother told me I used to stand up in my crib and sing when I was 2 years old. I’ve been singing for as long as I can remember and still sing with the Midland Odessa Symphony Chorale. I entertained all through high school and college and formed my own little band called The Rebels. We followed Roy Orbison around when he was with the Teen Kings. We performed at a lot of youth centers and that sort of thing. We played a lot of Elvis music. I started impersonating Elvis sort of semi professional and then starting doing it as a fulltime profession. I did that 15 years, traveling all over Europe and the US. I still have the costumes and the music down the hall in a storeroom to prove it. It was fun. I enjoyed it. I still get calls occasionally but I think I’m past the age to do that and I’d have to shave my beard and mustache to do it now and I don’t want to do that.”

Who would have thought my five-year-old granddaughter, sweet Caroline, would spend part of her Saturday afternoon chatting with a professional football player, a very nice and patient one at that.
