Hey, Elmer:

Every rabbit don't got a hole.

I suppose it's time to start refelecting about 2006, as the New Year approaches. Like everyone else, this year has been a year of wins and losses. I lost my Mother this year and found a good friend, and my life has moved off in a different direction. A few years ago, I realized that I was pretty much of a failure, trying to predict where my life was going, so I got out of the prediction business. I thought of the line about putting one foot down in front of the other and it brought to mind a wonderful country music
song: Walk On Faith"

   "Walk on faith, trust in love
   Just keep putting one foot down in front of the other
   Though the valley is wide, and you stumble in stride
   Walk on faith, trust in love"

Works for me.

We had a large plate of lasagna for supper tonight and watched The Last Time I Saw Paris on the tv. I took Ruth to Paris on our honeymoon almost 8 years ago. It was funny: I asked her where she wanted to go for our honeymoon, and she said, "Paris." I said, if
for some reason, I can't swing Paris, what would be your second choice. And there was dead silence. We still laugh about that.

Paris is for lovers.
