Today is your lucky day.
You have decided to purchase this newspaper for 75 cents and it is going to tell you how you and everyone you love can become a millionaire.
As a matter of fact, it is going to tell even the people you can’t stand how to become millionaires. It will make $4 gas a “So?!” situation, and I guarantee you’ll be ready to see your fellow man in a whole new light.
In short, the Soapbox — through very little effort of its own, just the way we like it — is going to solve all of America’s problems, end political strife, blah, blah, blah.

It is hard to say why I like the book, “Between the Creeks: My Sapony Adventures,” by Roy A. Cooper, Jr., so much.
Is it because I know the author? Is it because the book is about Nashville and Nash County? Is it the dazzling cover and jacket photographs?
Or is it just because the book is good?
