Hi Bill,

Too many Yanks overwhelm sanity.  Think we'd start to outgrow the work
ethic by now.

I try to swallow life with a good swig of laughter.  We humans
obstinately demonstrate our intelligence by acting stupidly: always
striving for top grades in Murphy's Laws.  No wonder getting the ADA to
work is so tough.

At 46 I hit the wall.  Shoulda logged more Siesta.  If I'd gone down
anyway at least I'd been smiling.  ;-)

Thanks for your story and kind remarks.  These friends are the best for
sharing, laughing, loving--occasionally squabbling  Whenever you can,
let's hear from you.

ISM
