George Washington’s Farewell Address, part II: Other Talking Heads

      Our little town lay close to the Oklahoma Dust Bowl.  Our existence wasn’t as dire as those in “Grapes of Wrath”; energy was aimed toward productivity and survival. Also, folks didn’t bathe very often.  People had larger issues to deal with, and national politics was one. During the Great Depression, American’s were galvanized by what FDR and congress were doing.
