Darrell Simmons...Superb Man of The Atlanta Journal

DARRELL SIMMONS, a truly great man of The Atlanta Journal, passed yesterday.  I first met Darrell in the very early 1970s about the time that I too started working with the fine and passionate people of The Atlanta Journal.  For sure when I met the man we all called 'D' I was struck immediately with what a friendly, kind and strong under pressure gentleman he was.  He could organize and make pages in those good old '"hot type" days as good as most any man I ever saw.  He and the charismatic one Frank Hyland were always together.  They were like "brothers" in the frenetic, high pressure wild world of old-time newspapering.  I remember how there were so many super guys with the Journal back in those days.  Lewis Grizzard, Ron Hudspeth, and the super duo of Darrell Simmons and Frank Hyland were just super-fine men to be around.  I have so many terrific memories of the gentleman from Florida, Mr. Darrell Simmons.  And of course Mr. Frank Hyland (who passed last year) holds a special place in my heart, also.

Pleasing Jazz Music

PASSIONATE Jazz music can make us feel joy.  And believe me joy is a good thing.  I love listening to Coltrane, Monk and Diz.  The sound of brilliant jazz enraptures me totally.  Eating good tomato sandwiches and for that matter any kind of grand vegetables produces in me a vibrant glow that brings so many enjoyable musical rhapsodies to my brain.

The Interesting Karin Slaughter

KARIN SLAUGHTER produces books that sleekly encapsulate the bizarre world of Atlanta in the last several decades.  She is strong-minded and the female characters in her stories portray the thinking of modern Atlanta and Georgia women in a very clever way.  Her book titled 'Criminal' is an odd foray into the female police world.  It has a vigorous verbal approach that combines the zesty comic and the somewhat tough tones of contemporary women's thought patterns.  In many ways lyrical and strong Karin Slaughter dives into the deep water of the human experience.  Oddly, she brings to mind the sharp verbal thrusts like those orchestrated by the ultra-sophisticated Dorothy Parker and the bravado one...the one and only Patricia Highsmith.  Read Karin Slaughter and gain plenty of knowledge of our unique Atlanta and Georgia culture.
