A Columbian article about the congressional probe of Hunter Biden details significant revelations surrounding the committee chairman’s own questionable financial activities (“The Republican leading the probe of Hunter Biden has his own shell company and complicated friends,” Associated Press, Dec. 16).

Meanwhile Ford CEO Jim Farley pulls down total annual (2022) compensation of just under $21 million.

What’s in a name or a color? Who decided way back when that grass is green and a round object should be called a wheel? One more question. Did you ever stop to think about these things?

But I lowered my pride a little and drove to Hartford, where I met up with the owner of the Ohio County Times-News. Some particulars were worked out, and I agreed to go to work the following Monday morning.
