Elliott Brack’s Perspective
BRACK: Do you have a continual tickling cough? Here’s one solution
By Elliott Brack | For over a year, I have had this continual cough. It’s not a cough from a cold, but an occasional tickling of the throat that brings on a cough. Sometimes it erupts into a “coughing fit,” with the best remedy a cough drop. That lubrication somehow stops the cough. It could happen two or three times a day, and even awaken me at sleep.
BRACK: Impeachment trial may be Democrats’ last hope to oust Trump
By Elliott Brack | If the Democrats do not want to have to go up against President Trump in the 2020 elections, their best hope is to get the Senate to convict him of wrongdoing in the impeachment trial. Right now, that does not seem likely, as Republican senators appear to have their ears and minds closed and may vote as a bloc to allow him to remain in office. Thank you, Mitch McConnell.
BRACK: How do writers of fiction come up with their story ideas?
By Elliott Brack | Those really good fiction writers? I admire them. Although I generally read non-fiction, particularly histories, if I pick up a good book of fiction, then I am engrossed and content. Sometimes you want the book to go on and on, since the author is so good. I am in awe of those who can produce good fiction.
BRACK: Christmas gift of jigsaw puzzle teaches about Georgia
By Elliott Brack | One of the joys of Christmas is the surprise that often comes with gifts. I was surprised—and pleased—that one of my daughters gave me a 500 piece jigsaw puzzle this year. Such puzzles are an old-time custom that blossomed years ago, and has been a delight for people who like puzzles for ages.
BRACK: Action needed in several areas to improve Gwinnett
By Elliott Brack | The start of a new year is a good time to review what progress has been made in the past year for GwinnettForum’s List of Continuing Objectives. Unfortunately, there has been virtually no progress on this list during the last year.
During December, GwinnettForum emphasized the need for Gwinnett legislators to move quickly once the General Assembly convenes to increase the salary for the chairman of the Gwinnett County Commission. This is our most pressing need at this time.
