Nick Clooney, onetime host of The Money Maze, recently talked to the staff at Answers in Genesis about the ongoing strife in Sudan.

Nick and George have produced a documentary. It is must viewing. I'm surprised one of the three networks hasn't picked it up to air.

On a lighter note, Nick was at the Jimmy Stewart Museum (http://\"http://www.jimmy.org/\") in Indiana, Pa., this past Friday to present the "Harvey Award" to James Best, a.k.a. Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane from The Dukes of Hazzard. (Best was in four films with Stewart.) I found the Friday $75/plate dinner a bit beyond my means, but I did manage to drive out there yesterday to meet Mr. Best and get an autograph and picture. I also saw some handprints that Nick had left on a previous visit to the museum, along with a photo and autograph from his rather more famous (on any other Internet forum) sister.
I'd been meaning to go to the museum anyway; this just gave me a little more motivation to do so. It's a nice little place and well worth the $5 admission. I walked a couple blocks and saw Jimmy's boyhood home, too. His father's hardware store, where his Oscar was on display for so many years, was, unfortunately, torn down decades ago.
