Our
American Uniqueness
By Bob Robinson
Every year I look forward to the Great Darke County Fair as the premier
event of the year. I scratch my head in wonder when I run into someone
who says they don’t (or won’t) go to the fair. Why? Dunno. Burned out,
I guess. Same ole’ same ole’… whatever! Maybe it’s because I’m a
“furiner and a snake in the grass” (once coined by a local official a

| NOTES
& THOUGHTS
FROM
THE EDITOR... ON THE INSIDE - TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4,
2012 |
No,
I hadn’t forgotten about the unforgettable UNSPEAKABLE. From my brief
perspective (admittedly only 11 years), the Mime that won’t speak no

say, he’s today’s lead story and “Editor’s Photo of the Day.” I wrapped
up my opinion yesterday. Today I pay tribute to a true professional!
Also in Blogs: Romney, Ryan have few convention words for entrepreneurs. News: Brown, Mandel offer sharp contrast on economy; Dems hope Obama speech will have charisma of 2008. Events: Coffee with the Commissioner in Arcanum Saturday. Sports: First time appearances in World 100 common. For
