There’s too much dishonesty in American politics these days, and it’s disabling us from navigating our way into a successful future.

Lawrence Peter “Yogi” Berra is considered to be one of the best, if not the best, catchers of all time. He appeared in eighteen All Star Games, won thirteen World Series as a player or coach, and was American League Most Valuable Player three times. What Yogi is most often remembered for these days are some of his unusual quotes which are a delightful combination of truth, wisdom, and ignorance. None of them were ever mean spirited to one particular person; however, Yogi did say “all pitchers are liars or crybabies.”

It started out as a fun evening of chocolate and champagne at an Augusta County Historical Society fundraiser held in the Smith Center for History and Art in Downtown Staunton. And then the evening turned sinister as party attendee and prominent architectural preservationist Bill Frazier turns up dead in the very building he helped restore a decade ago. At least that’s what supposedly happens at the hilarious mystery spoof, “Death by Chocolate,” being conducted by the society on Sunday, November 4 at 7 p.m.
