Read MoreWe tend to gloss over the Gene Hackman’s of our society, those rough-around-the-edges simple soldiers of the stage and silver screen who weren’t and aren’t particularly pretty nor scandalous — the good guy artisans who stuck to their craft, always performing their best, staying out of trouble, and standing to the side while the more famous and glamorous get all the attention.
Read MoreListen up. I want everyone to start addressing me as “Colonel Nolan Dalla.”
Today, by official proclamation of Governor of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, I was given that state’s highest honor, the designation as a full-fledged “Colonel.” Thanks to Gov. Steve Beshear, whom I’m pleased to find out is a Democrat. Receiving this award from a Republican might have been awkward.
