No interest in doing so RH> again. I've done it several times. Amazing how much more "stuff" the search found on the later searches. Under the spelling our family uses (single "M") I found writers, artists and even a preacher. I write - and have made my living doing so in the past. And I draw, pAint and do artsy/craftsy stuff. But, I'm a "devout" agnostic.

Phil volunteered his draft and as a thanks the army sent him to Vietnam. He's a very lucky man. Only one of his squad from basic that made it home more-or-less intact. I had visions of making the Navy a career - but, raging hormones got in the way. I was in lust (I thought it was love) when time to re-up came around ... and I know if I signed on again I'd be sent to Spain or Greece. So, I listened to the wrong head and stayed in Memphis ... turning down a U$10,000 reenlistment bonus (in 1962 dollars). A case of "Too soon old. Too late smart!" if ever their was one. Still I've had a pretty good life and even if I whine once in a while my heart isn't in it.
