In all sincerity....
(before I go offline for the day)
Can I wish you all a peaceful and joyful Thanksgiving , and snideness aside , I give thanks for my fantastic family [except the hated brother Technick...who is still not forgiven for being born on Xmass day and thus ruining Xmass that year
] and for all my friends both old and new. And hope you , as I do , look forward to the new year with optimism and happy anticapation of the great challenges and obstacles sure to come and just as surely to be surmounted leaving that smug satisfaction of accomplishment
;-)
A wise man said to me once.....Money is not as important as the number of people that will be attending your funeral.
He is totally correct.
Therefore I've made attending my funeral a condition for any beneficiary of my will ;-)))
