I was scheduled to call Ellensburg Republican and perenial candidate Gordon Allen Pross this morning to discuss his campaign for the U.S. House. But instead I got an e-mail telling me (I think) that he had to cancel.
Its probably just as well because, based on the e-mail, it's clear I may have needed a translator anyhow.
Heres the e-mail.
Sir Christopher,
I regret to inform you that our 10:15 landline pass will have to be overrode in abeyance or terminated. Due to my position as an Ordained Presby Deacon serving this morning to bring an elderly citizen to their physician.
The most relevant issue for my attendance is as an interpreter to convey two recent stays in the hospital. (As an elocutionist): emergent issues to peruse over charts so nothing, so nothing is lost in semantic translation from misguided locutionary, prelocutionary, illocutionary utterances, nuance, inflection, gesture and the Holy like.
GORDONATOR
Glory is not a destination it is a adventure...
I'll try to wheel my water buffalo shoe horn out to squeeze you in to a space so humanity may have an opportunity to see what side of Glory Chris Mulkin is on...
BLOGGER'S NOTE: If by "Chris Mulkin" Pross, or the Gordonator, means "Chris Mulick" then giddyup. I'm curious to see what side of glory I'm on, too.

Food for Thought: Agritours starting in September
If you've ever wondered how the pear you ate for lunch grows, or how a farmer knows when his field of corn is ready to pick, the Field to Plate agritours are for you. They are a four-hour tour of Mid-Columbia farmlands, ending at one of the many commercial farms in our area for dinner.
The meal is prepared by a Tri-City chef using many of the products and produce grown on the farm where you dine.
The Sept. 10 Field to Plate tour will end at Middleton Organic Orchards in Eltopia for a meal prepared by Chef Chris Van Hoorelbeke of the Crazy Moose Casino in Kennewick and wines from Barnard Griffin in Richland.

Best of the West in need of volunteers
I got an email today from Sandra Kerr, hoping that I could get the word out for volunteers for the upcoming Best of the West wrestling tournament Dec. 22-23 at Pasco High School.
Our boys played Grid Kids together (oh so long ago), so it's hard to say no.
This year, the tournament will have 36 teams instead of 32. Team duals will be held on Day 1, while individual weight brackets will be Day 2.
