I met Ernie Ladd one time and when I shook his hand I said "Dusty Rhodes's head is like a tomato, punch it one time and it bust open" Ernie loved it and was a great man to be around. Interesting story he went to Grambling on a basketball scholarship and was not getting enough food so Ed Robinson said something like "come play football and you can have all the food you can eat."
Edwin Edwards is running for the 6th Congressional District (Baton Rouge area). I had a home phone message two days ago. Edwin's big campaign push is to build an I-10 overpass or tunnel in Baton Rouge and a push for federal funding. I do agree the overpass/tunnel is needed. But...
In other news, Ruston's economy is also booming with the addition of a large nationally recognized corporation. That's right, Whataburger just opened up off I-20.
