And again. And now more than ever. And far from home too! My uncle used to say to me when I was a pup and in college in the 1960s, "this liberal BS is fine with me, I'm going to be dead and in Hell and out of it -- but YOU, you smart young SOB, are going to live forever and so I'll just let you put up with it!" Now that I am just sixty in January and a grandfather it is remarkable how smart a man my Uncle Emmett was.Bodwyn Wookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04152813177593209096noreply@blogger.com
