It appears that when our Publisher, Jerry Hinkle goes to Register at DWU, he will have to have a copy of his vaccination records. It will take a while for him to hunt that up. He will also have to go to his doctor for the old poke prod and cough routine. This will be especially hard on Jerry for two reasons. Firstly, he hates having that done. Secondly, Jerry has only seen one doctor in his life, and that doctor is dead. This one may take a while to figure out.

When they talk about the World Series at the Ponderosa, they just might be talking about the World Series of Monopoly. Recently, Jerry Hinkle bought Monopoly computer game for 50 cents at a rummage sale. Since then the Hinkle family has played 10 games from beginning to end. Jerry Hinkle has won 3 games, Darrel, Justin, and E.E. Hinkle are tied at second place with 2 games won. Brittany Hinkle has even won a game herself. What makes Justin's and E.E.'s victories so remarkable is that Justin is only 5 years old, and E.E. is dead. The computer game settles all claims of cheating as one cannot steal from the bank or another player without the others knowing about it. It also helps enforce the rules. E.E. has been lucky in that he landed on Boardwalk and Park Place before anyone else both times that he won.
