I don't want to outlive my money. I could do with very little and still be happy. Most of us are like that. I know one thing. No one I know has stolen or connived or cheated to get the money they have. We have not harmed others to get where we are. Many of us have children and grandchildren who are heading in the right direction and that we can take a little credit for. If we take care of our own, that is the first responsibility we have. Teach them and turn them loose unless they are disabled.


Our lives teach us many lessons, and bragging about the good we do is usually not something that others admire.


Some of us are very good at reading between the lines in life and on this forum. We know who are decent folks and who are bull ****ters.

Gracie - sage just doesn't cut it. I am officially requesting that TOTV create a new category: "perspicacious sage". And I hereby nominate you for the sole member of that category!

Merry Christmas and my very best wishes for you and yours throughout 2016.
