Whoa. Well, it appears I'm too late as the mystery's already been solved, but it's got the correct typeface and format to be a Beacon Journal item (this from a former Beacon paperboy), so I woulda said it was the real deal from the get-go. And my relatives wonder why I moved! Actually, some of said relatives might've actually seen this in the paper had they not all been in North Carolina for my wedding, which was two days prior, Sept. 19, 2003!
And Sonny, go 'head and say whatever you want...I gave up defending my home state the day after the primary!
