Default Ooops- addendum

The computer typewriter thingy has the gremlins, what I tried to asnwer was more akin to this-- The schoolmarm analogy came from the late Corey Ford's "Letter To A Grandson" and the pink skies came from one of many great Nash Buckingham's waterfowling stories- With Winter still with us, would be nice to share some bourbon and branch with you up there Jack- we could haul the Parkers and other goodies out of their steel tombs, admire them, and in the words of the late Lewis Carroll, discuss: "Cabbages and Kings- ie: Charles King, Walter King, heck- even Burger King--

Well if you ever find yourself in my little frozen corner of the world, libations and conversations can flow. Steel tombs - an apt description. As a kid, they were just in a closet. In woodshop, I built a gun rack for Dad and they then were visible for all to see. As a young man, I hung my two favorites in the antlers of a mule deer mount (Dad was a taxidermist also) that was visible to any passerby on the front sidewalk. Nobody thought anything about that. People understood and accepted guns as a normal part of life. That changed over time and now we have the steel tombs. I must divest or see the undertaker and get a third tomb.

Cheers,
Jack

BTW: have you checked and deciphered the lyrics from the photos in your Visitor Messages ?? Hit the airwaves 1967.
