“I’m happy for the young lady that her real daddy is an oilman. But really I don’t know why she or any of her relatives or family friends think discussing this in public contributes to their dignity. We have the Ewings for that kind of thing.” — Brunetto Latini
About “Out of the Picture” and incentives for local filmmakers:

About “Lois DeBerry: Legislative Pioneer, Party Leader, and Doughty Fighter”:
