Wanted -
Correspondent
Wanted-a pen pal to exchange views
on politics, social issues and fishing.
Wit, insight and word power are nice,
but not essential. Write: As l See It,
P.O. Box 428, Boardman, OR 97818.
You’ve been reading what I think
about things for a long time. I’m more
than curious about what you think
about things. Too many folks think
communication can be a one way
street. I think it has to be both ways,
everyone has to have a chance to have
a say. This is yours.
What do I intend to do with all these
By Ed Glenn
letters? Well, they will all get read,
that’s a promise. The ideas from some
will be the basis for some future pieces. Some of them may even be quoted.
No, I won’t use your name, if you don’t want me to.
Yes, I guess you can say I’m getting lazy in my fourth or fifth year of
writing "As I See It” . You could say that, but it’s not true. There are
dozens of subjects on my notepad to write about. The road from lone to
the Coal plant, home rule in Morrow County, the gall of some bureaucrat
to name a fish hatchery between Irrigon and Boardman the “ Umatilla’’
Fish Hatchery., the county airport(s), county and non-county parks and
there are more.
No, I’m not yet out of material. I just added the cost of recruiting medical
personnel to the list, not the cost of paying them, just the cost of finding
one willing to move to Morrow County.
But I am curious about the kind of things others want to write about.
So pick up your pens and dash off a bit of prose, send me a letter. We’ll
see who wins the bet. You see, I have a wager on that I’ll get more than
100 letters from folks who just want to spout off, get something off their
chest, or who want to tell me where to get off. All’s fair; proposals for
marriages and requests for loans will all be received with gratitude and
then respectfully declined.
Your letters will suggest subjects I don’t even know about so it will be
a learning process for all of us. Your letters will express points of views
that I agree with in which case I will call you brilliant and quote your most
persuasive passage. Your letters will be contrary to what I think is right
in which case I will share this platform so our readings can make up their
own mind.
This is your chance to write with some significant chance to be published-
and not have your friends know. This is going to be fun.
I get letters once in a while from a fella named Tacitus but I pretty much
know what he’s going to say. He’s a red-necked ultra conservative, a radical
and you can bet he’s caustic.
I get letters once in a while from folks around town when there’s some
hot political item on the ballot but only then. The rest of the time they
just grumble with their mouths. Put the grumbles on paper and we’ll all
get in the act and grumble together.
Sometimes I get letters from folks who want to note a good deed, or
observe a pleasant condition. That’s fun. But today, I got a letter that sand
wiches a little good observance between a couple of grumbles.
Whatever it is that’s on your mind, write me a letter, tell me what you’re
thinking and tell me whether I should use your name if I print part of it.
If nothing else, drop me a postcard. That will count toward the bet.
