Let's pray for Mr. Long's safe return.
ReplyDeleteI heard he was found in east Mississippi.
ReplyDeleteJaybike, thanks. I just got in and put an update on the blog.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad they found Mr Long.
ReplyDeleteColumbus, MS is a loooooong way off for an old fellow.
I'm hoping the family will maybe take the keys to the Mercedes, and find Palmer a place to live where he can not possibly stir up his family, all the news outlets, blogs, State Police, etc.
We all know that "It's hell getting old!" And, we will all get there one day (if we live long enough). I'm just hoping there is a take-charge "somebody" in that family that will "take charge."
I don't know him, other than by reputation (and it's a good one), but just taking a wild guess when you look at that genetic makeup, I'll bet that will be a job!
ReplyDeleteProbably so, Jim...probably so.
ReplyDeleteActually, I had NO idea that Huey still had living children, or that one was around here until I saw the APB last night on the late news.
I didn't even know of Mr. Long by "reputation," and I'm happy to read that what you know of his is a "good one."
Sad deal, for sure.
He's been in Shreveport for years. You know his mother (Rose) lived in Shreveport until she died, in the same house that she and Huey P. built in Shreveport.
ReplyDeleteWell crud, Jim! Now, I remember!
ReplyDeleteSigh...
Ha! And you make old jokes about me!
ReplyDeleteSelf defense...
ReplyDeleteIsn't his brother Russell Long, who I think use to be a congressman?
ReplyDeleteG R, Russell Long was his brother and was a senator for many years. He first took office I think in 1948 when his uncle Earl K. Long was governor.
ReplyDeleteLater, cousins Speedy Long and Gillis Long both served in congress. The Long dynasty was very deep rooted, I remember when everyone was either pro-or anti Long.
