Good for him, without an agent? This could have been yours, Kaepernick.

Poolside. Thursday night, after an incredible day on Wall Street, enjoying a -- what am I enjoying? -- oh, there it is: a rum and Coke. And watching the mallards in the pool. They certainly are fun to watch.

I would give a lot to be able to share a beer with Hunter S Thompson but I would give even more to re-live a moment in time in 2005. And 1977. And 1975. Or whenever it was. I think my adult life began on a cross country trip from Nashville, TN, to Westfield, NJ, in 1975. I still remember the conversation with the waitress in eastern Tennessee, 7:00 p.m. or thereabouts on a Friday night, probably in late May.  

As detailed as my diaries are, I wish I had written more.

Wow, how I'm looking forward to summer. When you hit a certain age, for me, 72 years of age, every day is more precious than the day before.That's why I spend every evening poolside when I can. Tomorrow, a huge hailstorm / tornado weather predicted.

Memories -- back to Menwith Hill Station, Yorkshire, England. Listening to BBC all night long. Best music ever. Seriously, listening to the radio all night long, not wanting to fall asleep, knowing that I would never enjoy life so much. I literally watched the minutes tick by for twelve hours. For me, the best part of life is/was all about relationships. 

But I digress.

    1. I don't refrigerate maple syrup, chocolate syrup, jams and jellies, peanut butter, soy sauce, honey either.

  2. And, since life is short and for a few dollars more, fill it with Kerrygold Pure Irish Butter or Kirkland Signature Grass-Fed Butter (New Zealand). You'll not regret it, trust me on this one...
