Watching Fox's Hannity's America last night and he had a story about all the Clinton's Pardons and the Connections....All I can say is that Ed was one of the more Respectable persons that got Pardons....lol If there is a re run of the show the story is about 15-20 minutes into it...

I heard Ed Gregory was spotted in the airport in Memphis wearing Elvis attire as he was waiting on his flight back to a remote Carribean Island......

I've also heard the Clintons-Gregorys association mentioned on Rush Limbaugh within the last year. Please don't read anything into my listening to Rush. I don't necessarily agree or disagree with his politics, I just always want to hear both sides of an issue. And I don't listen to him that much, but just happend to be listening the day he recounted the pardon granted to Ed Gregory.
I've never been "with it", just been an interested observer of carnivals for more than 50 years.

The carnival of my youth, which had roots that originated in my hometown.

Gregory always did me ok financially but damn did I end up in some major arguments with him.

I started in 83 as an electricians helper and made 250 a week, that spot was the last time I got paid that low. I always got paid every week and a bonus at the end of the year.

In later years after I got married, had kids, and started going to WQ I got paid there every week too, plus never had to worry about rent or for that matter Christmas shopping, he foot the bill and took everyone to Kmart. He also supplied my truck, travel trailer, fuel, etc.

He liked being in control, if you let him then you could get just about anything.

EDIT: There was one incident at the end of season of 84, when he was giving out bonuses he started cutting things like trailer rent (owned my own then), power, etc. I told him if he needed the money that bad to keep it, never had that problem again.
