Jerry, I may have sent out the link; but, now it is nowhere to be 
found.  That sort
of thing happens to me every so often, like three or four times a 
minute.  :-)

I watched and listened to Fred Eaglesmith's "Small Motors." It's 
appropriate,
all right.  When it finished, the "Up Next" pane flashed "My Last Six 
Dollars."
That's the one I'm picking for my funeral.  It describes my wild-oat years,
perfectly.

We're well, here, and hoping you, yours and your lady friend are the same.
Is she all healed up from her injuries, yet?

Last night my power lineman son stopped by and said he's considering taking
a job in SA.  I told him some of the things you've told about the 
country; but,
he'd still like to give it a try, just to be able to say he's been 
there.  Some of his
acquaintances are already there, so they've filled him in on what it is 
like.

Best regards,

Orrin
