Pull up a chair and read a spell!

You see a Progress Flag, they see a Confederate flag.
We have pride everyday of the year!
He had the piglet firmly under his arm as it huffed and puffed, squealing to “Oh Danny Boy!”
One of this summer’s stories concerns Ike’s Highways. Can you find it? It is among many that have been published on benandsteve.com Story Teller.

Be Present. Be Heard. Vote.

Remember the days when there was a sense of pride, dignity, and respect in being an American—regardless of where you traveled or whom you met.

We can strive for that again.

But democracy is not something we simply inherit and leave for someone else to maintain. It asks us to participate. Do not sit out an election—financially, physically, or mentally. Be informed. Be involved. Be present. And above all, be heard.

Your vote matters. Your voice can help shape a community, influence a county or district, and contribute to the direction of an entire state and nation.

Before our own time fades into that eternal goodnight, let us leave behind a country strengthened by the fact that we cared enough to participate.

Vote responsibly. Vote thoughtfully. But please—vote.

The answers to many of the photos scripts you will see on this site will be found in stories appearing in articles written by Benjamin Groff. He has detailed the adventures of his and Steven’s life, and those of his law enforcement days. As well, there are the many stories which will soon appear concerning their radio entertainment period. Not to fear the events of the two nearly four decades of knowing one another continue to erupt stories with Benjamin’s writings and maybe, just maybe, a soon to be decided podcast.

The Poem of My Father’s Youth

I woke up early this morning,
And glanced up at the wall,
Where the roaches and the bedbugs
Were playing a game of ball.

The score was six to nothing,
The roaches was ahead,
I got so doggone excited
I jumped clean out of bed.

I hurried downstairs for breakfast,
But the coffee there was so stale,
It tasted just like tobacco juice
Served fresh right out of the county jail.

And though the years have drifted by,
And time has had its say,
That little rhyme my father learned
Has never gone away.

Benjamin Groff

    It was very nice of you to like my post, ” Isaiah Chapters 31-32;” thank you very much.

      I’ve never shared this detail with the group before, but I’m an ordained minister here in the United States. That’s why I appreciate your posts so much. I approach scripture as a guide for living a better life—teaching kindness, compassion, and preparation for life’s end—while helping others do the same.
