Hah! Sorry. Reminds me of that old Carol Burnett skit where her lover tells her to wait for him, he will return and she sits on the front porch year after year after . . . She is covered with snow, but still she sits and waits. That image came in my thoughts as I read this. ~ Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die. ~ |

That very last line is a classic. I really like the way you set life's unconditional timing in this. Well done! Eric Forget the Psychiatrists they just find out all about you and sell you back to yourself! |
