Carol Perkins: Reviews of four KY books about the drug takeover While being laid-up, she had time to read Jim Howard's The Miracle of Man; Joe Keith Bickett's The Cornbread Mafia-A Memoir of Sorts; James Higdon's The Cornbread Mafia; and Sally Benton' The Bluegrass Conspiracy, and makes her recall a story from a student, who said, "I can take you to a marijuana farm that has an iron padlocked gate and guard dogs." which at the time she thought an exaggeration, but looking back is certain it was true. Next earlier Carol Perkins column: Carol Perkins: Under the desk bike chapter of life By Carol Perkins Being "laid up" with the crude for over a week has given me a chance to do some in-depth reading and calculating. I'm just not wired to sit, but I have not felt like doing anything but whining. Mostly to the walls! While in bed, I saw books on shelves that needed to be wiped off, one by one. Curtains that should be "shaken out" to throw off the dust, blinds holding a build up of dust from last spring, and the overhead light fixture dimmed by grime. I calculated how much dust was on the TV screen, gathered from the sunlight, and streaks on the mirror over the dresser that needed some Windex. I never noticed when I was well.
