My George Washington bobblehead stands among the greats on an old desk in our home office -- he's flanked by Winston Churchill, Edgar Allan Poe, Ron Francis and J.D. Martinez.
I finally broke down and decided to try an audiobook -- more on that in a future column -- and my first selection was Ron Chernow's biography of Washington. It's a pretty thick listen and even after a week the app says I have 40 hours left. I'm not sure what to make of that.

A paid political advertisement in last week's Graphic has prompted a bit of dialogue regarding the Nash County Detention Center expansion project.
As with all political ads, we attempt to make sure the content is as factual as possible, however, election season traditionally brings out all sorts of opinions and controversial topics to the forefront.
If you're checking your mailbox these days, you're most likely seeing a ton of political mail which, in my opinion, isn't even being reviewed much less fact checked.
