Garry,

A person loaned me the Gordon book by Dallas. If you haven’t read it, it’s a very interesting read. Dallas agrees that Dickson probably took advantage of him. Time for a scotch.

Ken, I have the book, and the story it reveals about Gordon is, to me, a sad one. It's easy to see how his early life may have resulted in some emotional issues that caused his erratic behavior.

I hope that before you drank your scotch you toasted your bird season and those two fine dogs of yours (and that nice 20 bore Dickson!).
