Elliott Brack

Image
I went to Elliot Brack's funeral yesterday. He was a friend. And he was quite a character. He was one of the first people I met outside of work when I moved to Georgia. He was sort of a variation of the main character of Tom Wolfe's "A Man In Full". I used to say that Elliott and I had a 50-50 relationship. He told me what to do and I did it. His 50% was telling me. My 50% was doing it. He was a fixture at my church and involved me in all sorts of things. Including organization of our "Civic Breakfast" where we invited leaders from the community for information and opinions of the community. It goes on and on. There were 260 people attending his funeral. He will be missed. https://www.crowellbrothers.com/obituaries/Elliott-Earl-Brack?obId=48440319

Old Trucks built in Upstate NY and New Electric Cars

Image
I went to a car show in Atlanta the other day. I test drove a Chevy Volt. I was very impressed with the Volt. I may buy one of those. I also went into the Atlanta Underground and found a few old trucks. Both of them were made in NY. The Selden was made in Rochester and the Larrabee was made in Binghamton. Things sure have changed. It seemed appropriate they were on display down here not up in NY.
