Red, White, and Blue

Sitting here between Memorial Day and July the Fourth, I’m feeling just a little more patriotic than usual. Therefore, today’s J.W. List will honor some of my favorite things Red, White, and Blue.

- My proofreading pen
- Georgia Bulldogs, Atlanta Braves, Atlanta Falcons, Ole Miss Rebels

Favorite White stuff:
- A blanket of snow on top of a mountain
- The soft hair of a Maltese puppy
- Gandalf’s beard

Favorite Blue stuff:
