Don't think it will work this trip. A number of family issues, not the least of which what we are going through right now with sister's cancer and chemo and my mother in law's failing health, are making the idea of guests or our doing anything but being on call 24/7 pretty much impossible. Just wouldn't be a good host or even good company. Too much stress, not enough sleep and holding the wife (and myself) together by a thread.
Charles Hankey
Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
