Bones father
was always drunk,
and dangerous.  

He was of English extraction.

Bones grandfather was of Irish extraction,
he was always sober and kind.  
He’s the one that really cared about Bones,
and raised him.  

Bones thinks life is strange,
and not always predictable.

Bones is right life is that way.

That's a twist, the Englishman the drunk and the Irishman sober. (smile) Just kidding.

I guess I have to be careful what I write around here. Some are easily offended.

Thanks Eric,

Don't worry, as you know, I for one am not offended by anything.  I don't know if that's good or bad.

Bones should just put a little whiskey in his tea. (smile)

Thanks dear ida,

But no thanks.  Bones would never do anything like that.  

You don't want to get him caught corrupting the morels of his elders do you?

He can't spare the whiskey anyway.

Love bobby

Never met an Irishman, I didn't like. Met a few Englishmen I didn't, but that may just be a question of percentages.
I'm enjoying getting to know Bones.

My mother use to say "The Lord tries those He loves the hardest. Because life is a test." Know in your heart the God loves you and will only try you as hard as He knows you can handle it.
Love ya, Billie C.

Thanks dear Billie,

Yes, what you say is true.  That's the way it's worked for me in the past.

Love Bobby
