Striking the Grandma Clause
Will someone please tell Carole Keeton Strayhorn to stop using her grandchildren as props? It’s really annoying.
And, no, I’ve never heard the woman referred to by any other name than whatever her current husband’s is. “Grandma”? That’s her nickname? Horseshit. I’ve lived in this damned town for going on a quarter-century now and I’ve never heard of such.
(In case you’re a non-Texan wondering what I’m talking about, I’ll explain: Mrs. Strayhorn —Little Scotty McClellan’s mommy— is running for governor of this state, and is wanting the nickname of “Grandma” included with her real name on the November ballot. It’s a stupid and unserious PR stunt and it makes me want to vote for Kinky Friedman that much more.)
