Fall Holiday

May you and your family have a fun and safe Halloween Weekend!

Customer Service – An American Statesmen

Condolences to the family of Colin Powell, who passed away on Monday.  Powell’s long career includes having been a Four Star General in the U.S. Army, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under President George H.W. Bush and President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State for President George W. Bush.  In 2008, he endorsed then Senator Barack Obama for President of the United States and has done so for every Democratic presidential candidate since then.  In addition to having served in the military and being a diplomat, Powell was an author and had written several books.

Championship Season

Congratulations are in order for the Chicago Sky, for making it to the WNBA finals.  Led by star Candace Parker, they defeated the Connecticut Suns 79 to 69 and wrapped up the series in 4.  They will play either Las Vegas or Phoenix in up to 5 games, starting Sunday.  This is their second appearance in the finals, with their first happening in 2014.  Go Sky!

Recommending Viewing

If you watched “The Sopranos” on HBO like I did, check out “The Many Saints of Newark” on HBO Max and at local theaters.  Starring Michael Gandolfini, the movie takes place in the late 1960’s and tells the coming-of-age story of Tony Soprano.  As a prequel to the hit series created by David Chase, it’s certainly worth a look this weekend.
