On a positive note.  The Sun was shinning today.

I must start to believe.

Warning!  What follows is the babbling of a bitter and tired old man.

When you have lived as long as I have and up to your armpits in filth, then maybe you might understand.  We all make choices and I made mine.  My mother said, "You made your bed now lay in it".  Well, know I am wallowing in my bitterness.  I just never pictured that I wouldn't have much to fall back on except good intentions.  

I am grateful to have a wife and son that accept me for what I am.  All my flaws.  I just wish that I had more to give them.  Can money buy you happiness?  I guess it's something I might never get the chance to see.

Poor old Dad!  

NO WIFE!

NO KIDS!

JUST THE TRUSTY OLD CAT!

REMEMBER, IF YOU WANT A FRIEND

GET A DOG!

MERRY CHRISTMAS.

Beauty and the Beast.  Some might say, Sugar and Mike.  Thanks Sugar.

THE HEN and the GOLDEN EGGS

A Cottager and his wife had a hen which laid every day a golden egg.  They supposed that it must contain a great lump of gold in its inside, and killed it in order that they might get it, when to their surprise they found that the hen differed in no respect from their other hens.  The foolish pair, thus hoping to become rich all at once, deprived themselves of the gain of which they were day by day assured.

It is better to be content with small things that are certain than to seek big things that are uncertain.
