    Selection show was at 7 Pacific, and on ESPNU, even.

    I guess either yesterday or today was "National Nursing Home Day" or whatever. And two of the nursing homes here seem to have this great rivalry. One of them called in to complain that the headline over the story about what the competitor did was bigger than the one over theirs.

    The smaller typed one was to honor them...since they still have the eyesight to see such small type. :)

    Which is, let me see, 9 p.m. Central? Yeah, that was our early Sunday deadline.

    "You only write about our nursing home when we lose someone ..."

    Sorry, but the other nursing home tries harder than yours.

    You're costing them hospice scholarships by not writing more about them.

    The JV nursing home deserves coverage too.

    We only cover them when they make the funeral home

    One of our residents walked down the hallway three times today. You should do a feature on them; it'd be good for community spirit.

    Oddly, Henry, we are in the middle of a month-long nursing home series. Front page every Sunday and Monday.

    None one in the area can match the 110-year woman as a local nursing home. She's No. 5 or so in the state ;)
